Artifacts in lists #11

Running the theme on Ubuntu 13.10 in Juno. The only problem I have is that list views (problems view, outline view, etc...) show randomly coloured rows, and often flicker while typing. Any ideas?

For the flicker, it's probably an issue with the CSS engine embedded in juno, have you tried if it happens with kepler? About the rows in the list, it seems that you have one dark and one not, are you using a custom system theme that sets different colors for the rows of the list in java applications? In Ubuntu 13.04 with the default system theme it's ok for me (not tried yet 13.10), but, sadly, currently there is no way to control the color/style of the single rows in Table widgets...

Just tried this with Kepler with default Ambiance theme on Ubuntu and don't get the issue so it is definitely theme related

As a side note, I'm not a fan of Ambiance and recalled that there is a way to use a custom gtk theme per app. I used the following script

#!/bin/sh

# Set gtk properties (for font) & launch
GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc \
    GTK_DATA_PREFIX=/usr/share/themes/Ambiance/gtk-3.0/gtk.css \
    UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= \
    '/home/collin/Apps/eclipse_kepler/eclipse'

Eclipse seems to care about both GTK 2 & 3 as both of the first two lines are needed. And because of that the menu problem on Saucy reared its head (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-gtk-module/+bug/1208019) so I added the workaround for that YMMV

Eclipse 4.4 Luna defaults to GTK3. Though there are still some issues, when it can fall back to GTK2
