can't move window
I was trying to add/remove icons in editor and noticed the window for adding/removing icons covered the icons I was evaluating. Tried to move window but it doesn't move. Never noticed this before and am wondering if this is intended? Best regards, Pop

I had that exact problem with Ubuntu at some earlier Calibre release, or maybe when I went to 20.04.

Look in Gnome tweaks.Under the Windows settings, see "attach modal dialogues" and turn it off. It pins modal windows when it's on.

Thanks to all. Retiredbiker, you are right. I changed this obscure setting in Gnome Tweaks and fixed the problem. Never ran into this before. This has nothing to do with calibre. Best regards, Pop
