Re: gtk2 2.10.1 SCREW UP ALL THEMES!!!

confirmed it's only for themes that use the pixmap engine... but replacing it with older version doesn't help  :cry:

gtk 2.10 isn't stable or hasn't been released so it's not a suprise it doesn't work right.

Re: gtk2 2.10.1 SCREW UP ALL THEMES!!!

The themes that come with the gnome-themes package work fine with the pixmap engine from gtk 2.10. I guess there's some bug in the theme that hasn't been triggered before in older GTK releases.

Could you post the section from the gtkrc file where the xthickness option is used?

That's right, so wait till gnome-2.16(gtk~ glib% atk# pango@ cairo stabilizing combination)

OK it's before the gtkrc declares to use the pixmap engine:

...
...
style "default"
{
  ...
  ...
  GtkStatusbar::shadow_type = GTK_SHADOW_NONE
  GtkSpinButton::shadow_type = GTK_SHADOW_NONE

  xthickness                            = 3
  ...
}

The following lines, which give the same error after I comment out xthickness, are:

  ythickness                            = 2
  fg[NORMAL]       = "#002040"
  fg[ACTIVE]       = "#002040"
  fg[PRELIGHT]     = "#002040"
  fg[SELECTED]     = "#002040"
  ...

Re: gtk2 2.10.1 SCREW UP ALL THEMES!!!

I found the problem - it's caused by the

GtkStatusbar::shadow_type = GTK_SHADOW_NONE
GtkSpinButton::shadow_type = GTK_SHADOW_NONE

Obviously gtk 2.10.1 can't recognize GTK_SHADOW_* (which exist in includes). I replaced GTK_SHADOW_NONE with 0 and now it works

It is stable and has been released. It also breaks compatibility slightly.

oh, oh - we're not finished yet...

just put the same theme onto my other linux box and got this one:

/usr/share/themes/Black/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:1465: error: invalid string constant "scrollbar", expected valid string constant

1465 class "GtkScrollbar"           style "scrollbar"

now I've got an invisible scrollbar

Re: gtk2 2.10.1 SCREW UP ALL THEMES!!!

All themes are still broken on my box, except clearlooks and some "old-school" ones. I guess the themers need to rewrite quite a bit of the theme-codes.

Everything here works fine except for Industrial, which is solvable easily enough.
