Re: [Bug 1317098] Re: Menu transparency behaves strangely

 

"Also, if you use the system style rather than a custom style, do you still
have the bug ?"
by that I meant, if you go into the simple configuration window, there
should be an option to define the style;
currently it's probably "custom", and I wonder if it changes something to
set it to "system"

Title:
  Menu transparency behaves strangely

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  1. In the menus (applications menu, right-click menus), items often
  lose their backgrounds (become fully transparent) when the mouse has
  touched them (and they stay that way until the menu is closed and re-
  opened.

  2.  AFAICT, the menus use the default fill, and there's no way through
  the GUI (I haven't tinkered around with the config files yet) to
  override this.  Worse, I can find no way to set the text colour, so
  the menus in the theme I'm building currently appear black on black.
  This may be me being stupid.

  My setup: Cairo-Dock 3.3.99.beta1, Lubuntu Trusty 64bit, (currently
  running on OpenBox without LXDE), Compton, Intel GM965/GL960 graphics.
  I've attached an affected theme.
