Created attachment 143605 [details] Screenshot of ambiguous tab bar in LibreOffice Calc 5.4.7 (Redmond GTK2 theme) I have recently switched my system to use GTK2 Redmond theme (usually known as "Windows Classic" theme) to improve contrast; but as soon as I tried to use LibreOffice Calc, I found that Calc does not correctly draw tab bars within tab widgets- making the active tab looked just like other non-active ones. This problem makes operating tabbed dialogs like "Format Cells" and "Page Style" really difficult and confusing. Exact steps to reproduce: - Set system's GTK2 widget theme to "Redmond". - Start LibreOffice Calc. - Right-click on cell A1. - Choose "Format Cells". - Format Cells dialog will appear. - Click on "Borders" tab. - Press Tab key, the focus will move to the "Set No Borders" line preset. - You will see that it is now _very hard_ to discern which tab of the dialog is currently active. The only clue left is a subtly raised position of the "Borders" tab. Calc's "Format Cells" dialog screenshot is attached as `librecalc5.4.7-redmond-ambiguoustab.png`. Screenshot of The Widget Factory (a native GTK2 theme testing program) is also attached for a reference as `thewidgetfactory0.2.1-redmond.png`. A comparison between Calc screenshot and The Widget Factory (especially its bottom-left part) shows that LibreOffice's GTK2 VCL toolkit's tab bar omitted the bottom white line that should have been running under all of the non-active tabs. Since this is a VCL-wide problem, I believe this affects parts of _all_ LibreOffice programs (not just Calc) that use the tab widget. This problem may or may not be related to bug #105202 (VCL-GTK3 tab widget's lack-of-border problem).

Created attachment 143607 [details] Screenshot of tab bar in LibreOffice Calc 5.4.7 (Raleigh GTK2 theme) Note that this problem is not limited to the "Redmond" theme: a similar but more-metallic "Releigh" theme is also affected in the same way (missing white line under non-active tabs). But the usability is less affected in this case, as the non-active tab headings and active tab body are colored differently under this theme.
