[SOLVED] GTK3 Apps Look Crappy in XFCE4

Hello,

I've been running XFCE4 for a while, and I have several GTK3 applications that don't look very good, such as Glade (extra/glade 3.10.0-2), or even things as simple as my ScreenShot scripts, that I have bound to <Print> and <Alt>Print.

Here is a screenshot of my ScreenShot script.

and a screenshot of Glade 3.10.0.

Now, I did think it was part of my script using Zenity for my screenshot, until it did it in Glade too.

I tried using these fixes I found in the forums.

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 88#p935988
and
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 73#p914873

Neither of which actually worked. Maybe it was just my computer, but neither seemed to have worked. Are there any fixes for this issue?

What I did was

ln -s /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-3.0 ~/.config/

After a new login the GTK 3 applications will use the Adwaita theme.

Do not paste large images/screenshots. Use thumbnails.

There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

I tried that, didn't work.

Sorry.

EDIT: After trying the SymLink again, it worked. Thank you Foucault.
