Thank you for clarifying. Maybe I am missing something but I am on Ubuntu 13.10 with Gnome 3.10 and libgtk-3-0 at version 3.10.7. Also, on Gnome 3.8 I did not have the problem. I will look at the thread again. I have tried all the different themes I can find and they all have the same problem on Gnome 3.10. Maybe the bug in gtk pre 3.4 is back? :) > > P. > > _______________________________________________ > evolution-list mailing list > evolution-list@gnome.org > To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... > https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list -- //Christian Dropbox - Your stuff anywhere! - https://db.tt/U8MqkVR _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
