Hello Maren,
could it be that you are hitting this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1357672 or one of its various variants on Windows?
Some of the mentioned bugs sounds like variants, indeed.
But I'm not firm with the exact definitions of the used terms ("rollover", "white out", ...) in the descriptions. Therefor I used simple words like "rectangle" in my own description.
GTK? Never heard.
When some elso, who uses Windows, has may be a helpful hint, what I can try to isolate the problem, please let me know.
I really like to use Inkscape.
Kind regards, Andreas
Hallo Andreas,
The bugs all revolve around the colors in the menues not fitting together, so if you have a text color and a background color that are the same (or very similar), you cannot read the text.
I think Brynn might be able to explain how to switch the GTK theme on Windows. (GTK theme: the 'look and feel' of programs that use a specific framework (GTK) to create their user interface). She has stated in the bug comments that she had switched the theme. Brynn?
It's not a big thing to switch the theme - you can switch back quickly any time, so you can just try it out without any risks to verify if this is the reason.
Viele Grüße, Maren
(also see linked reports in comment 3: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1357672/comments/3)
If so, it maybe helps to change the GTK theme (sorry, I can't give you a description about how to do this - I'm on Linux).
Kind regards, Maren
Hello.
I installed the latest version of Inkscape on Windows 10.
Three effects I recognize:
1 Inkscape needs extremly long to start (about 15 seconds), much longer than every other application (about 1-2 seconds) on my PC with an SSD.
2 When I click any entry in the menu toolbar, an empty rectangle appears. Not any command is visible.
3 When I hover over any symbol in the vertical toolbar as well an empty rectangle appears.
How can I solve the problem please?
Thanks.
Andreas
