Hi Patrick,

I just tested eric7 in my openSUSE 15.5 VM and have to report, that it 
works as expected. Therefore I think, that your issue is somehow related 
to your installation.

1. Did you install eric into a Python virtual environment as recommended 
by the eric installation instructions?

2. Please start eric in terminal window and check for error messages. On 
some systems Qt6 is reporting a missing package (libxcb-cursor0) without 
that it will stop. The installation instruction of the eric web site 
contain such a hint.

3. Check the directory ~/.eric7 for the presence of an error log. If 
such a log exists, please send it to me.

4. Try to start eric in a terminal with "eric7_ide --debug" and send the 
debug log file to be found in "~/.eric7" to me.

Hope these steps will help to solve your issue and you are able to enjoy 
eric7.

Regards, Detlev
