Re: Improper visuals after update
Hello, i had the same issue :) the issue seems to be with gtk-3 based apps. The widgets dont have any decoration, like input fields have no visible borders, check boxes no borders.. menu controls have only their text / titles drawn without any space and border in between their characters... I tried to post a mail here but after a few days i understood that this list silently drops mails with attachments... Examples of apps affected i used were Evolution (completely unusable with this behavior) and Synaptic (i switched to aptitude for package management). i recovered the screenshots from the sent folder and put them onto imagebin: https://imagebin.ca/v/2jsCHryiFpi8 https://imagebin.ca/v/2jsEiMInvzRD https://imagebin.ca/v/2jsEw627EVgh I purged my home directory completely to get rid of all . directories with eventually wrong config files, created a new user account to check as well. What finally solved the issue was the dist-upgrade from testing to unstable. Now the problem is gone. hope that helps..

Are the fields for username and password not rendered, no outlines around what I guess are buttons? Anyway, some Googling suggests that new Mate packages that hit unstable moved to GTK3, so that might result in some changes? Maybe the new themes haven't been updated yet? (If you are using unstable (that's a quite important detail to mention) you need to read the NEWS and/or changelogs, be patient, and check your logs to see what packages changed during the upgrade.) -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 6FAB5CD5 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Improper visuals after update
Hi, After an update I see that my dialog boxes are looking weird. I cannot describe it but it looks as-if the contrast is lost or the theme is not supported ? The boucing bars have gone missing but mouse over and clicks work. This is especially bad with nm-applet. I use mate desktop If anyone knows please can they tell me how to get this fixed ? An example image is attached at https://unsee.cc/zisapuge/ Thanks in advance Bhasker C V
