With the Adwaita default theme in Xfce, I am not able to disable the frame around the clock and systray, anymore (Right Click/Properties/Show Frame). A 1px frame is always displayed.
Is this only the case when using that theme?
Yes, it's related to that theme, only.
ok, can you file against that theme? I don't think there's much we can do, it's a theme specific setting...
I am going to re-assign it. The sad thing is that the author of the theme is totally resistent against any form of communication. With the latest release (which includes a pixmaps based GTK2 version of Adwaita) it is no longer usable in non-gnome environments.

How did you come up with that? In any case, what does the Xfce panel do in order to disable that frame? Compatibility with Xfce-specific obscure quirks is not a priority for Adwaita, and I expect UI settings of Xfce core system components to be optimized for a specific Xfce theme - but if we can make it work, why not.
I have been seeing this on several systems as well.

Created attachment 698551 [details] Adwaita patch
GTK 2 theme unconditionally applies a border, even is shadow is NONE. Guido Berhoerster has prepared a patch to fix the upstream Adwaita gtkrc and a gtkrc override which only applies this for the Xfce panel. Could we streamline these and include them in the upstream source?
Marcus, I now pushed a proper fix for this to gnome-themes-standard upstream. I plan to do a last 3.6 stable later today to get this and other fixes downstream.
