I just installed gnome-tweak-tool and ran it for the first time. When I ran it, I got a bunch of warnings like the following: (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 Here's the full output: jlquinn@cerberus:~$ gnome-tweak-tool Caching gsettings: <gtweak.gsettings._GSettingsSchema: org.gnome.desktop.background> Caching gsettings: <gtweak.gsettings._GSettingsSchema: org.gnome.desktop.interface> Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /apps/metacity/general/titlebar_font> (--short-docs) Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /apps/metacity/general/titlebar_font> (--long-docs) Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /apps/metacity/general/titlebar_font> (--short-docs) Caching gsettings: <gtweak.gsettings._GSettingsSchema: org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings> Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /apps/metacity/general/action_double_click_titlebar> (--short-docs) Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /apps/metacity/general/action_double_click_titlebar> (--long-docs) Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /apps/metacity/general/action_middle_click_titlebar> (--short-docs) Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /apps/metacity/general/action_middle_click_titlebar> (--long-docs) Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /apps/metacity/general/action_right_click_titlebar> (--short-docs) Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /apps/metacity/general/action_right_click_titlebar> (--long-docs) Caching gsettings: <gtweak.gsettings._GSettingsSchema: org.gnome.shell.clock> Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /desktop/gnome/shell/windows/button_layout> (--short-docs) Caching gconf: <gtweak.gconf.GConfSetting: /desktop/gnome/shell/windows/button_layout> (--long-docs) Caching gsettings: <gtweak.gsettings._GSettingsSchema: org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power> (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36 (gnome-tweak-tool:28946): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -1 and height 36
Harmless (and I think thats a gtk issue anyway)
It may be harmless, but it still seems like it's a bug to display the message. If it's a gtk issue, shouldn't this be reassigned to the appropriate component? I downgraded importance to trivial in keeping with your assessment of the harmlessness.
