Issues with Indicator Applet Complete on MATE #158

I know this theme is primarily designed for XFCE, but overall it works very well with MATE. However, I've noticed that when using Indicator Applet Complete rather than the legacy system tray panel applet, the theme exhibits semi-transparent borders on some of the dropdown menus (most noticeably on the date & time, bluetooth, and sound indicators.) The menus themselves also seem broken, they appear far too small and with scroll arrows/buttons that don't really work properly to display the rest of the menus.

This was noticed on a Debian Bullseye (testing) system, but should be present in any distro that offers the latest mate with the Ayatana indicator applets.

Thanks!

I'll take a look at that.

Give it a try now. You'll have to re-install the GTK theme to see any updates applied.

The semi-visible border junk is completely gone, but scroll arrows still appear and don't quite work properly to display the rest of each indicator menu. Here's a screenshot:

Hovering or clicking on the scroll arrows makes the list jump down briefly before snapping back up to the starting position and disabling the scroll arrows entirely for each "session" of the menu being displayed, presenting a usability problem.

I'm not sure if this is a specific quirk of Debian testing or not.
