Bug description

I run Mac OS 14.7.6 on a MacBook Pro. After recently updating to Quicksilver version 2.5.2 (4045), it stopped displaying the input window (the one into which you type the first characters of the item looked for).
No change after multiple restarts.
QS works perfectly well before the update, but I recall that there had to be a fix because the input window showed partly off screen). Now, no window at all.

Steps to reproduce

1.Type F12 (which is my shortcut for QS). The cube appears briefly , then nothing.
2.
3.

Expected behavior

The input window should appear in the middle of the screen.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named in the report. First reproduce the problem on macOS 14.7.6 with Quicksilver 2.5.2 (4045), comparing the behavior before and after the update; done means the input window appears centered after pressing F12.
