Transparency normally works just fine, bar some platform quirks: https://www.xpra.org/trac/ticket/1570 ie: we just don't use OpenGL on mswindows for windows with transparency because it cannot be done with GTK3: https://www.xpra.org/trac/ticket/1682
The visual artifacts you are seeing could be something caused by the outdated libraries or bugs in CentOS 5.11, this is an unusual / unsupported setup you have after all. Anyway, you can turn off transparency completely on the server or on the client with: XPRA_ALPHA=0 xpra start ... or XPRA_ALPHA=0 xpra attach .. > > This was working just fine in Xpra 2.2, and the correct theme > > and icons are shown when I VNC into the same machine.

Regarding your other points: * seeing that no-one else has reported the "window stuck on top" focus issue for a while, I am going to assume that this has been fixed until someone can give me steps to reproduce the problem. * the latest beta 2.4 builds work with any login shell (including csh and tcsh) both with the new paramiko backend and even the plink.exe one, I will try to backport these fixes to the 2.3 branch. * gvim position and menu bar issues: I have failed to reproduce any of the problems you describe using a stock CentOS 7.5 server with a MS Windows 7, CentOS 7 and Fedora clients. I have tried both 2.3.3 and 2.4 beta builds at both ends. I even tried it on a CentOS 6.x server with xpra 1.0.12, which does place the window in the top left corner, but only with a 1.0 client. I believe that covers all the points in your original email. You should have fixes or workarounds for all the issues that can be reproduced - let me know if I have missed something.
