Hello,
I'm facing a bug with oxygen and KToolBar when compositing is active
that I need expert advice on.
The issue: when you detach (unlock and move out of the window) a
KToolbar from a main window, oxygen gives it the "translucent
background" flag, and uses it to draw nice beveled corner on the
detached toolbar. The same *was* done for Dockwidgets, and it *used to*
work in both cases.
Sadly enough it does not work anymore (try it with e.g. toolbars in
dolphin). You get a zillion of errors message like:
X Error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 8
Major opcode: 62 (X_CopyArea)
Resource id: 0x22027d8
and the toolbar contents is not drawn anymore.
Nor does it work for Dockwidgets in which there is a KPart (okular or
kate), as was reported in bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=273848
To fix the bug, I found a workaround that unfortunately looks nice only
when using KWin. I could do the same for KToolBars, but what annoys me is
- it does work without the workaround for other QDockWidgets (with no
kpart in there)
- it does work without the workaround for QToolBar (try, e.g. in QGit,
or Quassel)
- it looks ugly when using kde applications in another DE.
I believe it is somehow related to XmlGui, and would rather have this
fixed there, than propagating ugly workarounds. However, I have no clue
where to look, how to start.
Advice ?
Thanks in advance,
Hugo
