Topic: Blank popup notifications..

..I'm not sure what causes this, but all of my balloon notifications from the tray are now blank. When my wireless network connects, I get a blank box. When Gwibber shows new tweets, I can see the persons avatar and any links posted, but no text. At first I thought this may be a theme issue, so I changed that, but the blank boxes still persist. Now I'm starting think that it could possibly be a tint2 issue. Anyone else heard of this?

Re: Blank popup notifications..

Hmm, strange. Which GTK+ theme are you using? Also, check the "tooltip_fg_color" value within the theme to make sure it does not match the colour of the notification bubbles.

Let us know how you get on.

Re: Blank popup notifications..

I am using the MarrinaWtB GTK with SteelDelusion openbox theme in Crunchbang 9.04.01. I couldn't find any line in the GTK that said "tooltip_fg_color" but I searched the word tooltip in gedit and looked at all the lines that came up. I changed a couple of values, but popups still looked the same. I can post the code from the GTK if needed.

I also tried changing the GTK and openbox themes, but that didn't change anything.

So, I guess I am an idiot. Changed the GTK again, to Dyne-dark, rebooted, and viola. Tooltips are back, fully functional.
