I'm having a weird problem with GMF 1.0 diagrams running under Ubuntu 6.06. The icons background (which is supposedly transparent) sometimes turn black. I suspect this is a problem with draw2d/swt, but I couldn't find appropriate bugreport. I'll attach a screenshot to demonstrate the problem.

There's more to the problem. The icons on diagram look blurred as though they were scaled down and then back again. This can be seen when the same icons are being displayed in the popup toolbar. I'll attach another picture to show this effect. None of this happens on Windows XP.

This seems to be a SWT issue. Same thing (black background) in Package Explorer for mime-types other than the IDE ones (eg. OpenOffice files)
You could reopen #34980 if this is still an issue or find newer reports.
(In reply to comment #5) > You could reopen #34980 if this is still an issue or find newer reports. What about the "blurred icon" aspect of this bug? I don't see it addressed at all. Are you 100% sure this is an SWT problem? How is "WONTFIX" status justified, is GTK2 platform not supported?
I mean that this bug shouldn't be fixed in context of GMF; generated code should not contain any special tweaks to prevent blurred images on GTK. GMF delegates all images handling to SWT (draw2d too) so the problem is most likely there but if you could investigate this issue a bit further it would be great!

Obviously, SWT/Draw2D is likely to be blamed, but for SWT developers it might be difficult to trace the exact execution paths from GMF. I don't feel competent enough to dig into this, so I figured GMF developers could look into the problem and provide necessary input for the SWT team... Anyway, just closing your eyes to a problem doesn't make it magically disappear.

Not only icons. Nodes' SVG figures too. This makes diagram editors useless on Linux platform (tested on Ubuntu Dapper and Debian Sid). I can't show such crappy application to customer. Is anyone working on this bug? Corresponding SWT bug is RESOLVED,WONTFIX and I can't change its status. It's funny, open source platform supports well proprietary OS but not open-source.
I'm currently unable to reproduce this on Ubuntu Edgy, but only because the icons are not displayed at all. See bug 164623 for more details.
After further investigation into this issue and discussion with members of SWT, it seems like this is an SWT related issue. Raised Bugzilla #164691 against SWT.
*** Bug 156214 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Turning anti-aliasing off, the same workaround as described in comment 19 for bug 164623, fixes this issue on Ubuntu Edgy.
Moving to 2.0 since we are blocked in SWT right now.
Moving to the next release, GMF 2.1.
