Hello!
I recently installed Arch on my laptop, and decided to try Cinnamon as my DE. Everything worked wonderfully for a while, until I changed themes and then changed the panel layout to flipped (panel at the top). Suddenly all text became rectangles, and stayed that way after I changed it back to panel at the bottom. I uninstalled and reinstalled cinnamon, to no avail. This only happens when I'm using a theme other than the default. Here's an example:
Default theme working as it should
Different theme where everything has gone horribly wrong
I have no idea what's causing this, or how to fix it. I've deleted everything I can find related to cinnamon and reinstalled, and it still does this.

I have the default theme installed and it just takes longer to corrupt as you show for the "Different Theme". It is only the panel that is impacted by this corruption, everything else functions as it should.

I've figured out that if I use a theme designed for the panel-on-top layout, everything works great with the panel still on the bottom, but if I use one designed for the panel-on-bottom layout, it doesn't work properly. It would seem in my case that cinnamon is getting "stuck" thinking that the layout is panel on top when it's really not.
EDIT: This issue seems to have resolved itself. There was a cinnamon update recently, but it did not fix this issue, so I'm not sure what exactly solved it.
