More MATE issues

I believe these are copperspice MATE issues.

Code: Select all

Leave an editor open for hours, editing files, opening and closing dialogs, when you shut it down you see the above. The QXcb code just doesn't play nice with MATE. Doesn't seem to matter which Linux distro.

Here is a new one. On any Mate desktop you want visit here

Pull down 3.5.9 and 3.6.2

Run 3.5.9, open a C++ file, choose whatever theme you want if you don't like the default, select some text then click in a different window on your desktop. It will look as expected.

Now run 3.6.2. Repeat the same. If you have the Classic theme chosen your selected text will look like this.

After you click in another window it will look like this.

Repeat test on a Cinnamon desktop for any supported distro. All is well.
