I came upon this recently using openoffice under KDE of FC9. If I choose my gtk theme as Qt4 than as my mouse moves over the icons on the toolbars they disappear. Also, If you start OO from KDE menu it reads the file .gtkrc-2.0-kde4 and if you start it from konsole it reads .gtkrc-2.0 file (I am saying this because if you change the theme to Qt4 from KDE and start the OO from konsole it will use the theme you have in the .gtkrc-2.0 file). In principle this should be just one file. But this has nothing to do with the error really. Qt4 theme comes in: $ rpm -q -f /usr/share/themes/Qt4 gtk-qt-engine-1.1-1.fc9.i386 gtk-qt-engine-1.1-1.fc9.x86_64 Whatever it is doing it is messing up OO. My only difference from standard FC9 is that I am using nvidia drivers but I don't think that makes a difference in this case. Thanks
Created attachment 326092 [details] Gtk+ config file causing the problem Reproduced on both F-9 and F-10.
export SAL_GTK_USE_PIXMAPPAINT=1 should workaround this
Won't fix for F-9, but will put the fix in for >= F-10. So will be in next F-10 update when there is one.
thanks, gtk-qt-engine + ooo has had issues for a long time. Any objections to my working to inject the 'export SAL_GTK_USE_PIXMAPPAINT=1' workaround into gtk-qt-engine?
The OOo fix will be in the next F-10 OOo update, so if you wanted you could do that for < F10, but otherwise it'll be a double-fix

Created attachment 330640 [details] ooimpress screenshot Toolbars are now nearly OK, only a little mouse over issue - background is not transparent and button overpaints panel decoration. But tabs in OO Impress are not rendered correctly, see attached screenshot (both tabs and buttons). kdelibs-4.2.0-7.fc10.x86_64 with latest NVidia proprietary drivers (w/o desktop effects)
Can it be reproduced without a proprietary driver
Yes, I can reproduce it with nv driver too.
