Hey, I just got a solution from reddit,
http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/ … all_gnome/
edit `~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css` and put in :
```
.window-frame {
box-shadow: none;
margin: 0;
}
```
Works fine with most gtk3 windows, but "synapse" still get double shadows. Maybe another css class?

Someone had already posted the solution in this thread, on page 2 as well as your own reddit thread.

Edit: Patched gtk3 package for x86_64 compiled here. Add gtk3 to IgnorePkg or non-patched updates will install over it.
]]>I have downgraded gtk3 to 3.10.7-1 and the issue does not happen anymore, however I'd like to use the latest GTK3. Is it possible to disable the client-side decorations?
No, because the header bar contains important functionality, not just the window title and decoration. (Otherwise, there would have been no point in switching to CSD is the first place.) E.g. in Calculator you would lose the menu that allows you to switch between basic/advanced/financial/programming mode. In Web you would lose the forward/back buttons, address bar, and menu.
They won't see it as bugs, they "pulled a windows 8" and chose to ruin the UI! The devs obviously just don't care about people running GTK3 software on DE/WMs other than their own...
What precisely do you want changed?
But there's little point in providing negative feedback to GNOME/GTK+ when the GTK+ developers took pains to make sure all of these changes are configurable by both the theme and the desktop environment, in order to avoid precisely these complaints, which WERE justified after the 3.10 release.
See e.g.

Do you know that for a fact, or is that unproductive slander against people who choose to volunteer their personal time?

See the reddit linked above (not by me). Many people explaining why CSD is a bad/wrong choice if the UI will ever be integrated with another product.
But fine. I'll unsub to this topic, wont post in it again.

The problem is, I don't find it, and I do not see any negative feedbacks on their mailing lists concerning 3.12.Just put these bugs in the bugtracker of GTK, that way also the devs know of these problems . Or even provide patches, GTK is maintained by a few people, they can use the help.

pcmanfm is everything but dead. They are currently working on milestone 1.3
See also the very active bug reports:
https://sourceforge.net/p/pcmanfm/bugs/
I don't see how downgrading can be a long-term solution though.
Cool! Last I read about it must have been this far back: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.ports/57384
Downgrading will help until either they fix the horrible mess, or themes start coming out that support all of gtk2, gtk3.10, gtk3.12+ together

Hopefully 3.13 they will have a "legacy_window_theme=1" option or something! I refuse to install any of the MATE apps, as they all seem to have large dependancies on MATE desktop...
