Problem description

Using matplotlib.pyplot outside of rewalt with pyplot.show() opens a functioning window.
However, rewalt creates an unresponsive window without showing the plot, giving a prompt of " "" is not responding". It can only be killed by using xkill.
Saving the image without opening a window, and then opening the saved image works, however.

System details

Python version:
Python 3.10.4

Matplotlib backend:

matplotlib.get_backend()
'GTK4Agg'

Rewalt version:

import rewalt
rewalt.__version__
'0.1.0'

OS: Pop_OS!
Window manager: GNOME Display Manager

Working with the latest changes as per the current date.

Problem reproduction

The following works:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, axes = plt.subplots()
plt.show()

But the following produces an unresponsive window:

import rewalt
test = rewalt.drawing.MatBackend()
test.output()

Trying this saves the image:

import rewalt
test = rewalt.drawing.MatBackend()
test.output(path="test.png",show=False)

Opening the image from the terminal works as well, opening a window showcasing the image.

Disabling the WM doesn't change anything.

Ideas

1. It seems that showing the image specifically from Rewalt is one of the issues. The next step would be to let the process "wait" with drawing.
2. Could be a WM issue, depending on which OS and WM the other contributors use. It would be helpful to compare.
3. It would be helpful to find out which matplotlib backend the other contributors use as well.
4. Could be an internal process in my computer that's causing some kind of race condition with the matplotlib backend, since we've previously thought the issue was solved after I restarted my computer.
