When GTK theme is used, the close (x) button at the right corner of toolbar becomes invisible. It is there since I can close the chromium browser by clicking it at the location blindly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the chromium browser. 2. Select GTK theme. 3. Check the right corner of toolbar for the close (x) button. Actual Results: There is no visible close (x) button at the right corner of toolbar. Expected Results: There is a close (x) button at the right corner of toolbar.
It looks like something is not working with Gnome 49.x on F43, as this problem does not occur on F42 with Gnome 48 and the same Chromium version. As a workaround, please set the Chromium theme to 'Classic' until we have a fix for this issue. Thank you
Hi H.J. Lu, It looks like a bug in GNOME as on F43 the Wayland is set by default and the Wayland compositor in use does not support server-side decorations (via xdg-decoration protocol) and causes such problem. This issue does not occure in KDE Please add following lines in /etc/chromium/chromium.conf at the end of the configuration as Workaround for a bug in GNOME if [ "$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP" == "GNOME" ] ; then CHROMIUM_FLAGS+=" --ozone-platform=x11" fi It should work for you after restarting chromium
Is chromium the only program which uses server-side decorations?
Is there a corresponding GNOME bug?
