Created attachment 153461 [details] Toolbar icons missing
I'll add my bug report here, although it includes an issue with toolbar icons and applies with gen vcl as well as gtk, and my OS is Slackware-current .. The toolbar icons for Background|Border|Font Colour do not display in LibreOffice 6.3.0.4. I've tried the release, and building it myself, and the issue is the same in both. I had previously built v6.2.5.1 which does display these icons OK, and used the same configure options for the v6.3.0.4 build. But as the release has the same issues, I'm suspecting that the problem is due to something that changed between 6.2 and 6.3. Using any theme, the icons show the border rectangle with the colour bar at the bottom, but the images [cmd/lc_{background,frameline,font}color.png] aren't displaying. The menu items function as they should - see attachment. Other icons/images not displaying: The Help/About dialogue box is just a black rectangle with buttons at the bottom, and the Tip of the Day box shows a black rectangle where I presume an image should be displayed - see attachments. The About box highlighting is to demonstrate that the text is there, it's just the image that's not displaying. In Draw - Line Colour and Fill Colour icons and the rotation image don't display, and the line width selection drop-down menu flickers. However, all functions work.

Just providing an update on the bugs affecting me. I've tried: libreoffice-6-3~2019-08-20_14.33.16_LibreOfficeDev_6.3.2.0.0_Linux_x86-64 Build ID: ff3cfee4ebfcb412f54f17ffccc95512fdc15c8e VCL: gtk2; and master~2019-08-21_09.30.10_LibreOfficeDev_6.4.0.0.alpha0_Linux_x86-64 Build ID: 2bed8af91fc2654b9ed2432f969d32d5741a529b VCL: gtk2; and the About dialogue displays OK. Still have the bugs with Tip of the Day, the toolbar Colour icons, and Draw. Using gtk+2-2.24.32
Seems like the issue with the about box was bug 126254, but it seems the fix there didn't help the others. Caolán, by any chance are you able to see these in the VM as well?
as an aside I wonder why people are still using the gtk2 vclplug *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 127327 ***
(In reply to Caolán McNamara from comment #9) > as an aside I wonder why people are still using the gtk2 vclplug Debian Jessie is still here. :-) gtk3 VCL plugin doesn't work: $ libreoffice6.3 /opt/libreoffice6.3/program/soffice.bin: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdbus-1.so.3: no version information available (required by /opt/libreoffice6.3/program/libmergedlo.so) ** (process:10606): WARNING **: require gtk >= 3.18 for theme expectations /opt/libreoffice6.3/program/soffice.bin: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdbus-1.so.3: no version information available (required by /opt/libreoffice6.3/program/libmergedlo.so) ** (process:10615): WARNING **: require gtk >= 3.18 for theme expectations
I've tried: master~2019-09-07_10.36.29_LibreOfficeDev_6.4.0.0.alpha0_Linux_x86-64 | Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha0+ | Build ID: c1e1806c9c01d2ac2f62f95dd79cbb2037bc87af | CPU threads: 2; OS: Linux 4.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk2; | TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@86-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2019-09-07_10:36:29 | Locale: en-GB (en_GB.utf8); UI-Language: en-GB | Calc: threaded This fixes all the issues I've reported, except for the flickering Draw|line|width dropdown. The drop down display flickers with LO 6.3.x and 6.4.x on x86_64, but is OK with LO 6.2.x, and I've built 6.3.0.4 for aarch64 and it's OK on that. I've also built 6.3.0.4 with the patches applied [https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125461#c8], for gen vclplugin, and the issues are fixed in that too, except for the flickering ... Q] as an aside I wonder why people are still using the gtk2 vclplug A] Because I prefer the gtk2 interface.
