Hello Riccardo, XFCE is upgrading to GTK3. The inconsistent look of the windows you've seen might be due to old style windows being used alongside newer style.
XFCE isn't a big monolithical application, instead a compilation of several
softwares that creates your desktop environment. Not all these software are bing
upgraded at the same time. Due to the voluntary nature of the project, people
work on them when they have the time.
Cheers,
Ludovic

I wonder, something went wrong with Thunderbird which sent out an email when I put the laptop to sleep.What I wanted to write is this.I use xfce since ascii and chimaera: I think it has a consistent look: timeless enough, something between CDE and Windows XP but not so ugly. I refer especially to the windowmanager, smooth design, well usable, not inrusive. Colors, shades changed but it remained.Now, in chimaera, I notice something inconsistent. When opening applications like xterm or firefox, the look of windows decoration is similar, but updated to previous versions. Other windows, however "internal" apps, like system preferences, panels, etc of XFCE look ugly without decorations, similar to windows 10. Is that an intention? or is there some setting inconsistency I did not detect?Thanks for hints. Of course you may understand what I want to restore proper decoration to all windows, not the other way around.Regards, Riccardo
