Bug 33218 – Blender menu doesn't display correct with mouse themes.

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andreas Volz 2003-11-11 05:58:34 UTC]

Blender menu doesn't display correct with mouse themes.

steps to reproduce:
- install a mouse cursor theme (e.g. from kde-look.org). I tried 3Dcursors-0.2
- start blender with active mouse theme and watch them menus
- it seems that the mouse has a block around and overpaints all menus
  (I could post a screenshot if you need one)
- bug apears in Blender 2.27 and 2.30
- after removing the mouse theme it works correct

I can't really offer much of the way of advice except to try a newer version of Xfree (xfree-4.3.99.901.ebuild) or a newer version of blender (blender-2.31a.ebuild).  I looked around on the internet (including the blender message boards), but couldn't find anything relevant.  Let me know if you make any progress.

Well, out of sheer boredom I decided to see if I could reproduce this.

Using Xfree 4.3.99.12 and blender 2.31a I also saw artifacts in the menus
using the whiteglass xcursor theme.

I will file a bug report upstream.

Closed upstream as a settings issue.
Closing here as UPSTREAM

Are you using NVIDIA drivers? I used NVIDIA drivers, and after setting

    Option      "HWCursor"      "true"

in /etc/X11/XF86Config in my graphics card section this was solved.
