[Bug 2064177] Re: Window borders and shadows missing from GTK3 dialogs (if autologin is enabled and Xorg is used)

 

Yes, it was actually fixed upstream in GTK 4.14.3 I believe, the NEWS
file refers to the fix as "Drop a no-longer-relevant optimization that
was interfering with getting the current window manager capabilities".
However, 4.14.3 and 4.14.4 never seems to have been pulled into the
Ubuntu package, at least not for Noble. Therefore, the fix was pulled
only with the update to GTK 4.14.5, which happened with package version
4.14.5+ds-0ubuntu0.1. And indeed, commit
https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk4/commit/?h=applied/ubuntu/noble-
devel&id=dbfc04ca2c0ad38c7433c0e178105f22ba1fcfc7 contains the relevant
change in gdk/x11/gdkscreen-x11.c. Whether 4.14.5+ds-0ubuntu0.1 ever
made it into noble-updates I don't know, I'm not familiar with Ubuntu's
release process. In any case, the current version 4.14.5+ds-0ubuntu0.5
in noble-updates does contain the fix (verified to work on my machine).
As you say, the package contains some some unrelated things on top of
that fix as well.

Bug description:
  I have a fresh Ubuntu 24.04 instalation and some of the windows have a
  few problems. Some are probably caused by theming, as the windows'
  borders (or their color) makes them impossible to discern from the
  background windows.

  
  Just earlier I discovered another bug, related to detecting the click and window I clicked. I am trying to see the sub-content of a software update but the system reacts as I clicked the window below. In the recording you can see this happening both with the Terminal and with Firefox.

  
  I have plenty of screenshots and also a screen recording that show the bugs.
