Bug 523074 – x11-themes/gtk-engines-2.20.2-r1 - java Look and Feel does not draw Clearlooks menu borders

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alex Barker 2014-09-17 21:54:09 UTC]

Clearlooks fails to draw borders/separators correctly in Java applications when the Look and Feel is set to GTK.  This can be attributed to a small bug gtkrc that was sent upstream but unfortunately gtk-engines theme is all but abandoned at this point.  I have attached the patch from the upstream bug that was closed "wont fix" in hopes that it can be applied locally.

Reproducible: Always

Can you provide some screenshots showing the problem? Looks a bit surprising only java apps were affected by this 

Thanks

Several Screenshots

I have attached several screenshots illustrating the problem in Netbeans 8.0 and the java menu look demo (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/examples/components/index.html#MenuLookDemo).

This problem only happens when GTK is set to Java's look and feel (LAF).  For the menu look demo, just compile with `ant` and start with `java -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel -jar dist/MenuLookDemo.jar` to see the issue.  The "working" screenshots are what it looks like after the patch is applied to /usr/share/themes/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc.  The default_laf screenshot is how things like with Java's default LAF, Metal.
