Does anyone know if those hideous GTK3 title bars are rendered by the client (GIMP), or is the person taking the screenshot just using GNOME?

- klodolph 6y agoThe title bars look identical to everything else on my Gnome 3 system.
- ohazi 6y agoRight, and I'm running XFCE with a different theme, or i3 without any titlebars, and every GTK3 app that uses client-side window decorations looks out of place. I'm not running Gnome 3, I don't ever intend to run Gnome 3, and GTK shouldn't poison the last 15 years of GTK applications to try to bump up the Gnome 3 adoption numbers by attrition. It's petty and obnoxious.
- cycloptic 6y agoThe titlebars are a design choice made by the app developer, not by GNOME. At least in the sense that it's only part of GNOME's design guidelines, app developers using GTK don't have to follow it if they don't want. There are various ways you can configure/modify a GTK app to hide the titlebars and attempt to use server-side decorations. But either way you are faced with the choice of potentially hiding important functionality if the app developer has decided to put buttons in the titlebar, or having two titlebars like with this patch: https://github.com/PCMan/gtk3-nocsd https://github.com/PCMan/gtk3-nocsd

- prokoudine 6y agoYes, I use GNOME. Usually, I'd go to fullscreen mode to make a screenshot, But this time it was kind of important to show image dimensions and overall amount of layers.
