[Bug]: Freeze/crash when loading a LV2 badly sized plugin (maybe?)

[Locynaeh]

What happened?

Hi, thank you first for the huge work with this really nice host :-)

I tried to load yimrakhee's smallmuffin (you can grab it freely from the release page) LV2 into the standalone version of Element (v1.0.0) on Debian Stable (Trixie) with Mate desktop.

On first load, it appears badly sized (see 1st screenshot) : half of the UI is cut off.

If you close it then open the UI again, it begins to grow (see 2nd screenshot) then freezes Element, then all the session. If I don't kill it quickly enough, it eats everything and I have to relaunch the session completely.

I tried to reproduce it while launching Element through my terminal emulator, no error is displayed.

I tried it through Carla without issue.

I did not try the VST3 version of the plugin yet.

No precise cause found.

Thanks

Version

1.0.0 (Latest)

Update:

Tested with the LV2 and VST3 version of yimrakhee's crushfuzz:

• LV2: same bug
• VST3: no visible issue

[Locynaeh]

Tested with another LV2 plugin : ToobAmp.

Faulty sized plugin reproduced but no UI growth and freeze.

Tested with ArborealAudio's STR-X LV2, same behavior than yimrakhee's.

I also noticed that at the first UI opening if the button "Keep plugin window on top of others" is clicked, the same growing and freezing behavior is reproduced.
