MATE Desktop 1.10 Released, Offers Experimental GTK3 Support

[Krejzi]

I've seen bugs with GTK+3.16... due to CSD, I guess. As soon as you start a gnome app, you get strange borders.

I don't see such thing on my system. What apps are you talking about exactly? I tried eog, file-roller, gedit, aisleriot, etc. I have stock GTK+-3.16.4 and MATE 1.10 (no additional patches).

I've been using MATE GTK+3 1.10 for some time now and no such problems exist. Before that I used MATE GTK+2 1.8 and I didn't notice what you are saying there either.

I recall marco (the fork of metacity) having problems with GTK+3 apps -- e.g. strange borders around the windows. So if MATE now supports GTK+3, these days are gone, I guess?

Is this a Dejavu? I believe I saw a news about MATE 1.10 being released back in May right here on this site.

That was just phoronix reporting about mate 1.10 release not like actual release happened. Sensationalist journalism.
