GTK integration in OOo has some flaws that make using it on a Gnome environment less satisfying than it could be:
-It doesn't use theme icons. Sure, it uses a theme that is supposed to resemble tango icons, but still... they're not the ones you choose. Firefox lets you do that. Besides, some of them look so fuzzy, just take a look at "new" and "open".

-Pressed buttons do not look like normal GTK pressed buttons.

-Fonts are not antialiased. The menu arrows do not follow the theme.

-The arrows at the end of the scrollbars do not look like normal GTK ones; dropdown boxes have a weird shadow to them as well as not being very responsive (they lag). To top it off, stuff like dropdown boxes or tooltips tend to "flicker". Even buttons flicker when you hover over them.

After seeing how good work Mozilla has done at making Firefox look like a normal GTK app, couldn't something similar be done with OOo? Can't we learn something from how they've managed to get such fine results? |
