Qt apps don't display title bar buttons in Mate #575

Open terzag opened 8 years ago

terzag commented 8 years ago

On Ubuntu Mate 16.04, using any variant of Arc, Qt applications don't display buttons in their windows title bars. They display fine with other themes. Not sure it happens in other DEs (Mate uses the Metacity theme).

I've installed Arc Theme through the OpenSuse repo, version is 1465131682.3095952. Gtk is 3.18.9.

Have you tried logging out and back in? Sometimes metacity bugs out when switching to new themes.

Yes, just checked this and the issue is still present.

Loki - same issue for all qt and all other non gtk3 apps (3.18.9-1ubuntu3.1).

I first installed the package and then I compiled from the sources. Building detects 3.18 correctly. Then again, it's not the 3.18 windows that have issues with the window buttons.

I'm also seeing this issue. I've built from source on CentOS 7.3 as using the Fedora/OpenSUSE repo's actually caused the issues in #662 (or I didn't have the pre-reqs installed) and using Arc-Red fixed this. Building from source with required pre-reqs solved that issue to use the original.

But when using Qt apps like Maya or Nuke (both of which can be obtained freely for testing) many tear-off panels and windows don't have title bar buttons. I've attached some files for reference. I'm thinking as they don't open as 'new' window applications, they don't receive the same treatment. This is paired with MATE without Compiz compositing, but the other MATE themes don't exhibit this behavior and correctly display title buttons (exit at the minimum).

@horst3180 Do you have any ideas as to what could cause this? I'm really enjoying your theme and I've made it my default on all of my machines, but the constant use of Alt-F4 or Right-Click - Close is starting to get a wee bit old ;) Thanks for this beautiful work!
