Description Josef Holy 2006-10-01 15:23:51 UTC
The splitter, used f.e. between the Project view and the source editor, doesn't
follow the native GTK L&F. It should follow the Nimbus theme specification.

For now due to conflict with mode container borders we will keep current status
ie. we will not paint native divider. I attach code patch for painting native
divider using SynthPainter. Still this patch is not complete. L&F code switch
has to be added ie. if (GTK L&F) then paint native divider.

moving opened issues from TM <= 6.1 to TM=Dev
Comment 4 reinouts 2012-07-04 11:47:42 UTC
There still are issues with the GTK+ L&F, which is outdated and doesn't even
match the latest generation of GTK+ themes (Adwaita) at all.

IMHO, it would be much better to switch to Nimbus by default on Linux/Unix
platforms!
