Bad GUI on Elementary OS

[onsah]

The GUI behaves very weird in Elementary OS. The console output is like this:

*** BUG ***
In pixman_region32_init_rect: Invalid rectangle passed
Set a breakpoint on '_pixman_log_error' to debug

*** BUG ***

(GoSync:15768): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 18:33:30.821: gtk_box_gadget_distribute: assertion 'size >= 0' failed in GtkScrollbar

The image of the GUI is shown below:

If I understand the problem I may work to fix it.

Hello,

can you provide information about the version of Elementary OS you're using as well as the version of the wxgtk, wxpython installed.

This looks like a known bug with WxWidgets : https://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/17971

Hi, I am using Elementary OS 5.1.6 (Hera) currently.

wxgtk:

ii  libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5:amd64                    3.0.4+dfsg-3                                     amd64       
wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit (GTK+ 3 runtime)

wxpython:

ii  python3-wxgtk4.0                              4.0.1+dfsg-2                                     amd64        
Python 3 interface to the wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit

Hopefully they are what you were asking

Hello,

I reproduced the problem. This is linked to the GTK library in WxWidgets. Unfortunately, I haven't able to find a package update with the fix introduced in the code base in march.

I'll keep looking periodically.

You can still use GoSync as this does not affect the core functions.
