Modal sheets are ugly

[Klemen]

Greetings!

It seems there's a problem with displaying a frame around windows in some cases. This bug affects multiple apps (non elementary as well) so maybe this is a problem with the theme itself?

Attached is the screenshot of Scratch's open file dialog with the above problem.

It seems the bug only affects me. :) I'm a developer as well, maybe I could take a look? Just tell me approximately where to look :)

OP can you point out what exactly is the problem in this screenshot?

Modal windows like the open and save dialogs don't have a titlebar if that's what you're talking about.

[Klemen (klemen-forstneric)]

harveycabaguio, thats exactly it. The titlebar is missing, thus the window looks a bit ugly. The same happens with other modal windows, like message boxes.

[Harvey Cabaguio (harveycabaguio)]

This is intended though - modal windows are supposed to be "attached" to the main window and aren't really windows.

I see, I thought it was a theming problem, since it does look a bit weird. This one, for example, looks alot better: http://danrabbit.deviantart.com/art/Open-File-Dialog-253767439

Renaming the bug report a little ;) I do think our current dialog sheets are a little ugly and can understand why OP thought it was a bug.
