Xfce: Text under desktop icons misaligned with shadow #607

Closed csmart closed 8 years ago

csmart commented 8 years ago

The text for icons on the desktop is misaligned with the shadow. Switching to another theme, such as adwaita or greybird solves the problem.

Arc: xfce_shadow

Greybird: xfce_greybird

606 is a proposed fix for this.

csmart commented 8 years ago

Thanks. This patch does not seem to solve the problem for me though, unfortunately :-(

jlu5 commented 8 years ago

You might need to log out and back in again for the themes to update.

csmart commented 8 years ago

Sorry, packaging with packaging. I fixed that and yes, it solves the problem for me. I didn't notice any other side effects, either. Thanks!

linuxlite commented 8 years ago

Confirmed as an issue here on Linux Lite. Have patched this for our users.

jlu5 commented 8 years ago

With Xfce, I've noticed though that the patch from #606 appears to just disable the desktop text shadow entirely instead of fixing its positioning. So the text becomes completely white, which is slightly hard to read with a light wallpaper.

There's some more background about this issue on the Launchpad bug.

jbicha commented 8 years ago

I haven't tested but I assume this affect the Vertex theme too.

Angelogeb commented 8 years ago

@GLolol you're right, it is not a proper fix. Since it is an issue for a lot of themes, as described in the Launchpad bug linked form @jbicha , I suppose we should wait for updates from the murrine engine. Until then we'll have to downgrade or use #606 temporarily.

horst3180 commented 8 years ago

Okay, I borrowed a fix from Greybird. The shadows aren't drawn by the murrine engine anymore, so it should be fixed now.

linuxlite commented 8 years ago

Fix looks good here @horst3180 Thank you.

jbicha commented 8 years ago

@horst3180 Nice work. I think this bug affects Vertex too.
