buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-session
buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-session
Happened after 8 to 9 upgrade. Where can I look for what happened wrong? Is it xfwm or xfce4-session? Also mouse over does not change button colour.
Re: buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-ses
are you talking about the window borders? that would be xfwm, xfce's window manager.
just try a few different themes, maybe your's is outdated.
otherwise, explain better.

Re: buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-ses
Let's focus on the "mouse over menu" issue since I am sure one solves both.
In every application GUI, if I click on a button that expands a menu, and push the keyboard up/down arrows or put the cursor over, I get no highlight, but the button gets pushed. The only place I get the highlight is when I right click on the debian desktop for the menu. And buttons on toolbars like the classic File / Edit / View / etc / Help have no margins. Now I notice I also get no vertical bar that is usually on the right side of any drop-down menu or page, and shows the position from top to bottom, where we read. Again, mouse over works.
Different xfwm4-themes do not affect this neither did reinstalling xfwm4
I know without picture we need to imagine, tried to upload screenshot but get message "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached"
thank you

Wow it has to do with me as user, because I logged into graphical, I started X as root to check another issue and the issues were not present! Maybe sth in ~/user/.config/ ??? we are near.
Re: buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-ses
no, what you describe has nothing to do with xfwm.
are you using a custom theme (gtk) that you installed yourself? if so, switch back to one of the system defaults.

Re: buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-ses
I do not use downloaded themes, the windows are the old style, simple, nothing fancy.
I installed gtk3-engines-xfce just in case, rebooted, same issue.
Tried xfce4-appearance-settings -> styles, with all the styles the same thing happens
Read manual of xfce4-appearance-settings, I see option --gtk-module=MODULES
Maybe a gtk module is not loaded?
A lib not found?

Re: buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-ses
sorry, but this looks like a themeing problem to me.
is this xfce4-terminal in the screenshot?
need to find out if it uses gtk2 or gtk3.
meanwhile you can go through with software upgrades & reboot, please.

Re: buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-ses
I ran this interesting command objdump for a programm with an ok gui, mousepad:
From what I assume objdump means by "NEEDED", the programm mousepad uses libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 and works fine, while xfce4-terminal, gnumeric and others, using libgtk-3.so.0 have issues, look at a gnumeric issue: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0a7wp4f1ndfy7 ... s.png?dl=0
I reinstalled libgtk-3-0 ... still nothing.

Re: buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-ses
so this is another of those famous gtk3 compatibility issues (yes, gtk3 becomes incompatible with gtk3 themes).
famous answer: something went wrong.
i guess with the upgrade.
what verison is gtk3 at?
is this happening with all themes?
try reinstalling one of them, and try using that.
maybe one of the sources in your list is fishy.

Re: buttons and/or their margins hidden in xfwm or xfce4-ses
strange, afaics that file should exist.
try choosing a different gtk theme, then look for that file again.
