Short summary of your issue [1.1] Console is invisible on Linux.

Game Version 1.1 (1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3)

What OS are you playing on?
Linux

What platform are you using?
Steam

Do you have mods enabled? Yes

Have you tried verifying your game files (Steam only)?
No

How much "pain" is this causing you?
1

Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
This has been tried with mods enabled and disabled. The console is invisible - the tooltips still show up (as per @balmung60 observing) and commands can be entered, but it's otherwise invisible.

Nothing seems to make any difference. Mods enabled or disabled and trying a new save all are the same.

Please explain how to reproduce the issue
Attempt to bring up the console. Default keybinding (`).

Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
Is this potentially a graphics card/driver issue? Using an Nvidia GT1650 graphics card.

I have attached a save game
No

Aelannor1, thank you for this info.

Anyways - you can change that value to "window" and back to "widget" - and console opens correctly.

Also , you can edit ../game/gui/shared/defaults.gui , create new template tooltip_es_2 with "tooltip_type = window"
and change type flowcontainer to use tooltip_es_2
And.. anyways - console not shown correctly.
Then you switch this new one to "tooltip_type = widget" - console is redrawn and correct.

So problem looks like not in the "tooltip_type = widget" , but in a need for window redraw

So, I managed to fix it, actually. Did it the following way. I'm on Manjaro with a Nvidia card. Turned off steam overlay but not sure if that helped too.

1. Hit tilde for the console. You can't see it, but mouse around in that area until you can see "Visualize and edit GUI widgets" pop up like you are mousing over the button.
2. Click "Outside parent" and uncheck "Show only Active File"

3. Filter on "gui/console.gui"
4. Pick [flowcontainer] console_window.
5. Pick [textbox] console_output_item
6. Under "Using", change tooltip_type from "widget" to "window."

Mine froze up for a minute but eventually the console popped up.
I used your guide but it doesn't work. I think they have change UI, so I opened console.gui in text editor and change "textbox's alwaystransparent" from no to yes, so it works.
And yes, you have to turn off Steam Overlay
