Screenshot showing gray blocks hiding text under Windows 10 GTK theme.

Description of problem:
On quite a few third-party themes that are otherwise usable on GTK3/GnomeShell in Fedora, the Eclipse text editor shows persistent opaque bars at the top, right, and bottom borders of the text area, hiding text behind them. This makes the theme unsuitable for working with Eclipse.

These bars do not seem to appear on any other GTK3 application featuring a text editor area (for example, gedit).

One theme available on the Fedora repos that triggers the issue is gtk-xfce-engine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
eclipse-platform-4.5.2-10.fc23.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always (with suitable theme)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install eclipse and gtk-xfce-engine
2. Open any text file using the text editor inside Eclipse
3. Scroll up and down on the text

Actual results:
Bars hiding text (as shown in attachment)

Expected results:
All text should be visible in text area


Additional info:
Experienced with both Moka theme and Windows 10 theme.

Problem no longer appears under Fedora 24/Eclipse with Windows 10, although there are other problems with the theme.

Closing. Please open separate bugs for other issues you experience.
