GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 212081
When GTK theme changes, background of lists does not update
Last modified: 2004-09-29 20:42:31 UTC
(this may be a GAL bug, but I'm not sure). When the user changes the GTK theme, there is a situation where the new colours are not applied. This is the colour used to paint the background of the ETable (in the mailer) when there is not enough data to fill the screen. A screen shot will explain this far better than I can. I'll attach it in a minute.
Created attachment 40377 [details] The white section should be light blue, matching the lighter colour in the table
I can still reproduce this here. *bonk*
Just generated a patch to fix this for HEAD. Will generate a patch for -1-2 branch also, so it can be fixed in 1.2.3.
A patch for this has been committed to HEAD gal. There are a couple more issues in e-table with this same problem, visible in the addressbook minicard view. I will fix these issues also and backport patches to -1-2 branch for inclusion there also.
Don't have time to fix this in the 1.2 branch, and it is likely that there will not be another 1.2-branch release of gal. However, the problem still occurs in the addressbook et al. because they use etable directly and not just etree.
This seems to be fixed in 1.5.
