Comment 4 Olivier Fourdan editbugs 2005-03-19 22:01:51 CET
Should be fixed in CVS now (cf. attached gtkrc)
Comment 5 Bernhard Walle 2005-03-19 22:17:45 CET
With this, I see another problem: In Mozilla Firefox button texts are white if
mouse is over. That makes it hard to read.
Comment 6 Olivier Fourdan editbugs 2005-03-20 09:28:11 CET
Indeed, but that's a (known) bug in firefox.
Comment 7 Bernhard Walle 2005-03-20 09:54:40 CET
Also, the settings in Firefox look a bit strange if the mouse is over a checkbox
in my opinion. I think Mozilla is an important application, so if it's possible
it would be nice if you can take care in the theme defaults.

(But in general, I like the look better than 4.2.0.)
Comment 8 Bernhard Walle 2005-03-20 10:12:06 CET
Sorry for bothering you: Another problem I see in the settings dialog of Rox,
screenshot attached.

Comment 10 Olivier Fourdan editbugs 2005-03-20 10:28:33 CET
Sorry, can you explain what is the problem to be seen in the screenshot?
Comment 11 Bernhard Walle 2005-03-20 10:32:48 CET
The white area, esp. in the right of "Nur Symbole". The problem is spread in the
whole configuration dialog of ROX.
Comment 12 Olivier Fourdan editbugs 2005-03-20 12:04:05 CET
If you can, please feel free to play with the gtkrc and submit your fixes. I'm
using a LCD monitor and not necessarily see all colors.
Comment 13 Bernhard Walle 2005-03-20 13:18:58 CET
I marked the white area with a red border, so you should able to see it. Simply
because you might better know what gtkrc setting is responsible for what background.

I'll play with settings a bit today evening, though.

style "notebook" = "default"
{
    xthickness = 1
    ythickness = 1

    #bg[NORMAL]        = "#ffffff"
    bg[ACTIVE]        = "#d4d8e0"
}


fixes the problem. Of course, notebooks aren't white then but I don't like this
very much because it results in inconsistent GUI (because programmers don't use
the notebook widget always in the right way I think).

gtkrc

That new version should definitely improve things.
Comment 17 Bernhard Walle 2005-03-21 18:19:48 CET
Definitively better, yes. 

I don't like the white menu background very much, though. But that's a matter of
taste.

The borders of the sliders are a bit hard to recognize, the old look was better.
Or a small border as in the progress bar widget.
Comment 18 Bernhard Walle 2005-03-21 19:47:27 CET
Wrong, the white text in Mozilla is fixed, sorry.

So, this seems to be quite perfect. :-)
Comment 19 Bernhard Walle 2005-03-21 20:39:57 CET
Only a small spacing problem with the new (beta) Adobe Reader 7, see screenshot.

Current CVS looks very good! I think you can close the bug.
Comment 22 Bernhard Walle 2005-03-27 11:46:31 CEST
Sorry: There's a small issue with the Terminal configuration dialog (the blue
boxes are a bit too small to that the text goes out of it), screenshot attached.

Comment 24 Olivier Fourdan editbugs 2005-03-27 19:11:39 CEST
Should be fixed now, but there is a bug in that custom widget (ExoIconBar) so I
suggest that you also fill a bug (or mail benny, the focus_padding value breaks
things and the icon.text is not centered when using value greater that 2)
Comment 25 Bernhard Walle 2005-07-27 23:40:03 CEST
As noted by Olivier this bug was fixed in current stable version.
