ubottuLaunchpad bug 1795135 in greybird-gtk-theme (Ubuntu) "Window buttons are not clickable at the top of the screen" [Undecided,New]13:13
bluesabreochosi: an interesting one, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-power-manager/+bug/179513814:12
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1795138 in xfce4-power-manager (Ubuntu) "Power Manager Plugin Detection Issues" [Undecided,New]14:12
ochosibluesabre: i'm not sure i understand the bugreport about greybird/panel. can you describe simple steps to reproduce?21:33
ochosithe xfpm bug sounds like a upower issue21:34
ochosiplease check the output of the upower cli to be sure21:34
bluesabreochosi: move the mouse cursor to the top of the screen (0px) (where the panel is), and you cannot click on any of the window buttons21:34
ochosi(xfpm simply presumes it's not a laptop if it doesnt have a battery21:34
ochosi)21:34
ochosiright, i presume because of padding/widget border of 1px21:35
ochosicould probably be tackled by removing any border for those buttons in the theme21:35
ochosihave you tried that with gtkinspector?21:36
bluesabretrying now21:39
bluesabrealways a pain to get the css override to work21:40
bluesabreno luck21:43
bluesabreGuessing that's probably the case though since adwaita is unaffected21:43
ochosiyeah possible21:44
ochosii can try to quickly test that myself21:45
* ochosi starts up laptop...21:45
ochosiright21:48
ochosibluesabre: you know about the bug with whiskermenu flickering when you hover it with the mouse?21:49
bluesabreochosi: yes21:49
bluesabrethis seems related, but moreso21:49
ochosithat's when it's at the top border and stuff and it seems that gtk cannot decide whether/how to process the mouse position/signals21:50
ochosiif i drop the "margin: 1px" from greybird, i don't only get the same effect for the window buttons, they also look a bit crappier21:50
ochosibecause there is no margin between the buttons21:50
ochosiand if you want to support vertical and horizontal buttons you cannot conditionally decide which margin to add21:51
ochosi(unless i add .horizontal and .vertical classes in the panel, which may be a good idea anyway)21:51
bluesabreWas just about to suggest that21:51
bluesabre:)21:51
ochosibut still, you'll get the same flickering as with whisker21:51
ochosinot sure that makes the situation a lot better21:51
bluesabreright, but that means it will work more than 0% of the time21:52
bluesabre:D21:52
ochosii can reproduce that with adwaita btw21:52
ochosiyou get the same flickering there21:52
bluesabrethe flicker, yeah21:52
ochosiand that is most likely a gtk+3 bug21:52
bluesabreis there any frame_extents hacking we could employ here?21:52
ochosibecause the panel is definitely at the location 0x0 and doesn't have any borders set21:52
ochosiuff, maybe21:53
ochosinot sure21:53
ochosione could also ask olivier about this kind of bug21:53
ochosinot sure he uses the panel though21:53
ochosianyway, adding the classes to the panel -> certainly a good idea21:54
ochosi(btw, switching to different themes and the panel icons still being correctly colored because of gtk+3 and symbolic stuff is quite noice)21:54
bluesabreIndeed22:23
bluesabreochosi, BTW, I'm starting to work on an Xfce screen saver based on early light-locker by your suggestion22:24
bluesabreI think it could be nice to have in -core, and less of a pain than light-locker22:25
ochosiright22:26
ochosii guess people will be happy to have a replacement for xscreensaver22:26
ochosiespecially a less-ugly one22:26
ochosiok, i have a working patch for setting orientation related classes on the panel22:26
bluesabreSweet22:27
ochosii'll try to clean it up and push it22:27
brainwashbluesabre: what makes early light-locker special?22:30
ochosibrainwash: it doesnt rely on lightdm but locks inside the session22:31
ochosiin theory one could try to provide both features in one locker22:32
ochosiwith an option to either lock within the session or switch to the greeter22:32
ochosi(the latter is probably the securer method)22:32
ochosibluesabre: so i have the final patch, but no git server to push it to...22:33
brainwashreskinning mate-screensaver would not be an option?22:33
ochosiit's not about skinning22:34
ochosiearly light-locker was gnome-screensaver without depends22:34
ochosithat's why i called it *light* locker22:34
ochosibluesabre: if you wanna give it a try: http://dpaste.com/2QKSTR822:34
brainwashah. so, mate-screensaver still depends on mate services22:34
ochosii would guess so22:35
bluesabreYes22:35
ochosibut i haven't ever tried it or taken a look22:35
bluesabreI tried porting mate-screensaver earlier22:35
bluesabreLots of mate-specific bits22:35
ochosianyway, i'll push that panel commit another time and then i can also "fix" that bug in greybird22:36
bluesabreochosi: cool. Will test it later, currently on the go22:36
ochosibluesabre: i guess you can start about somewhere here: https://github.com/the-cavalry/light-locker/commit/6bde1f1785c131617f53df2a6fa195eb4ae1c9e922:38
ochosithat may be one of the last meaningful commits with a lock dialog22:38
ochosinight y'all22:39
bluesabreochosi: that's exactly where I've started :D22:41
Spassbluesabre, ochosi, that flickering bug is not Xfce-only, see more here: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=239737123:25
Spassand not GTK-only, since Plank flickers on Kubuntu also23:25
Spassand here's a recent post on r/xfce subreddit, same issue https://www.reddit.com/r/xfce/comments/9jgztj/bug_in_xfces_panel_causes_weird_flickering_is/23:27
Spass(well... Plank is a GTK app, so in fact it still could be a GTK bug)23:52
