netbeans ide 6.5 toolbar wrong size

[Marco]

netbeans 6.5 ide on ubuntu 8.10 with Dust 0.3 (and lower) theme shows a double-sized toolbar and a lot of problems if you try to resize it or drag and drop buttons panels

Yes, I'm also getting this with Dust 0.3, just tested again today.

i have this problem too

I changed the following in the gtkrc file in the gtk-2.0 folder from the theme and Netbeans did not have the problem anymore. For some reason the toolbar cannot have a ythickness of 3. The same goes for the extras. I think this is the only workaround for now. The toolbars need to be set to ythickness of 2.

style "wider"
{
 xthickness = 3
 ythickness = 3 -> 2

style "dark-toolbar" = "dark"
{
 xthickness = 3
 ythickness = 3 -> 2

Thanks! It does work. I've uploaded the fix to bzr; it should be fixed in the next release.

Maybe to preserve the original purpose of those settings, there could be a specific workaround for the java toolbar? Either way, I am glad to be of help.

It's gong to be pretty hard to find a specific matching rule, since Netbeans is a Java app. I am considering keeping the xthickness large, but the clearlooks focus ring doesn't like it.

The problem continues with the theme "Dust Sand" in Ubuntu 9.04 beta. Should I open another bug?

The problem was solved changing the parameter "ythickness" to 2 in the "style "toolbar" = "default"" section as showed in the attached patch.

The one included in Jaunty doesn't have the fix yet. Download the latest release, it has been fixed there.
