This is a control software for Nexia series DSP's by Biamp systems. It does
install and work just fine and can talk to DSP units on network but there are
couple of issues that could be fixed.

Create new document with file/new, drag 'Peak 8 channel' from input/output
section of 'processing library' to document and double click on the module.
This should open new normal, non-maximized window with minimize, maximize and
close controls with maximize control disabled.

What really happens seems to depend of window manager:
On XFCE4 (ubuntu 18) always maximized
On Unity (ubuntu 16) always non-maximized

On Gnome (ubuntu 18) most of time window opens non-maximized, but sometimes
nothing seems to happen and software seems to get stuck. When this happens,
clicking multiple times on minimize button on main window minimizes and is
immediately restored, possibly under other open windows, or it might stay
minimized. Also control window that should have opened previously might open
when restoring the main window, and it can open in any of 4 states: minimized,
normal, maximized or full screen. If control window opens in full screen state,
there was no obvious way to close the subwindow, only option was to quit the
whole program.

Similar problems occur with other modules from library, for example 'Peak 2
channel' control might open with totally black window.

Some modules control windows work better always opening non-maximized state on
all widow managers.

---

Second problem with windows size, Drag 'Auto 4' module from library Mixers
section to document and open control dialog by double clicking the module,
press on 'Mic Options' button. This opens new control dialog but it is too
small and doesn't show all controls and can't be resized. I can create new bug
for this problem if it looks like it doesn't belong to this bug.

---

There are couple of other strange things going on, not sure how they are
related:

On Windows, when the 'Mic options' dialog is open, main window and control
window can't be interacted with, but with Wine, you can still move the control
window around and close it when the mic options dialog is open.

On Windows, on some of control dialogs (anything from mixer category), maximize
button is active, but doesn't really maximize the window, it might only move a
little. On Wine, maximize button maximizes the control window, but only part of
window has contents, rest is transparent. These control windows are resizable
on Windows, but have set maximum size. On Wine, size limit is not honored.

---

Control windows are also missing labels on buttons, bug 45497 on that problem.

Tested on wine 3.13 from winehq on Ubuntu 16 and 18, running on Hyper-V on
Windows 10. Issues also seen on earlier Ubuntu and Wine versions but no exact
record available on version numbers, probably Ubuntu 14 and Wine 1.6.
