dotted lines around buttons and text #27

Closed z-targz closed 8 years ago

z-targz commented 8 years ago

on many buttons (you can use calculator as an example) there's these little dotted lines around EVERYTHING also without any padding whatsoever regardless of if that button is selected. The dotted lines go directly around the border of the text and looks quite ugly imho. Is this a feature or a bug or...?

JosephMcc commented 8 years ago

I suppose it's a feature. We removed all of the these when we did the Mint-X themes and then have had complaints ever since. People that use mainly the keyboard for navigation use these as an indicator of which widget currently has focus. Because of that I really don't want to remove them.

z-targz commented 8 years ago

The issue is it's not just around the element that's in focus it's around every single element period. Using the keyboard adds not a second but a THIRD band of dotted lines (on the selected element only).

Could you post a screenshot please? Also, what version of MInt and what DE?

z-targz commented 8 years ago

http://imgur.com/a/JTjZC I'm using linux mint 17.3 XFCE edition. This occurs in all 3 variations of the theme but I did a temporary fix for the main theme (so I took the screenshot on dark theme) by changing outline-style from dashed to none in gtk.css

Also after doing this fix the tab thing still works

JosephMcc commented 8 years ago

OK, well the theme is designed for Mint18 and gtk3.18. Mint17 uses a much older gtk version and isn't compatible. If you choose to use this theme on older mint versions issues are to be expected. It isn't supported though so please don't open issues here if you are running an incompatible gtk version.
