Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Under the Settings > Controller configuration screen with no controller plugged in, clicking on "Big Picture Configuration", "Desktop Configuration", and "Guide Button Chord Configuration" will prompt that theres "No Controller Attached".

After clicking "OK", you are met with a rectangular black screen that remains open with the Big Picture mouse cursor on a blank screen. IMO, after clicking "OK", Big Picture should close since no controller was found, since it leaves you at a black screen. You have to force close it with your window manager.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

Go to Settings > Controller
Click Big Picture Configuration", "Desktop Configuration", or "Guide Button Chord Configuration"
Click "OK", and be met with a rectangular black screen that doesnt close unless forced

Hello @shoober420, are you still experiencing this issue on an up to date system?

After clicking those options, the screen does close now. Although after clicking them, the three bars will continue moving until you press a key on the keyboard for the "Done" dialog box to pop up from the bottom.

You would think after clicking "Ok" when the "No controller attached" dialog box shows that the window would close afterward. But it doesn't close until you press a key and click the "Done" pop up dialog. Thats another issue though, so I'd say it's fixed. Thank you.
