Created attachment 7102 xfdesktop-4.13.0 desktop icon text unmatch the gtkrc settings & theming Hello, I've interest to hunt some xfce4 bug from latest xfce 4.13.0 made I've found this bug. xfdesktop-4.12.3 still work fine but after I compile new package & install xfdesktop-4.13.0. The icon text become white & the text become black in all themes. All gtkrc settings that I've set inside gtk-engines-xfce and other gtk themes for xfce transparency are all gone not working with xfdesktop-4.13.0 Even open terminal here missing from the desktop right-click context menu.
For the icon theming stuff, it was changed in the GTK3 port. See: https://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/tree/NEWS. Specifically, you can now theme it in GTK3 by using something like this in your theme's css files (or ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css): XfdesktopIconView.view { background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.0); color: white; } XfdesktopIconView.view:active { background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.2); color: blue; } XfdesktopIconView.rubberband { background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.1); border-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.1); } Adjust the values to suit. As for the Open Terminal option, I believe that thunarx needs to be upgraded first before it will work again.
Is this still a bug after the default style was introduced?
I'm not sure if the original bug reporter is listening, but yes, the default style fixed this issue.
Ok, then let's close this bug.
