When clicking a Ribbon menu item, the associated action is no longer being
activated. The main action of the Ribbon menu button (upper half) still works,
but after clicking the lower half of the element to open the submenu, the
submenu items don't respond to mouseclicks.

Tested with Ubuntu 20.04. Wine 5.0 on another Ubuntu 20.04 installation still
works.

Finally had a clue: The data folder ("Datenverzeichnis") on a users computer
had no write privileges. After changing to a folder below "Documents" the
Subitems of the Ribbon menus were clickable again.

Yesterdays clue could have been a misinterpretation. Today while playing around
with a KDE desktop, I noticed that it makes a difference whether the app window
is normalized or maximized. If maximized, the effect won't occur. I also was
able to click 'through' child window's titlebar and activate ribbon menu items.
I wasn't able to move the child window at all until I maximized the app window.

This seems to be an issue of how mouse events are captured as keyboard input
after pressing the alt key and keyboard shortcuts were no problem.
