gtk-engines-qtcurve-1.8.16: improper rendering of combobox in gtkfilechooser with some configurations

[Coacher]

Hello.

There is an issue with gtkfilechooser when I enable "Draw arrow within edit field"
option in Combos section in qtcurve configurator.
Here's the link with the picture illustrating this bug:

When I disable this option things are getting back to normal:

However, it is not the desirable look as I would prefer to have arrow embedded in edit field. Could you please fix it?

I am using gtk-engines-qtcurve-1.8.16, qtcurve-qt4-1.8.14 on Gentoo amd64 machine, my Qt is 4.8.5 (also reproducible on 4.8.4) and GTK+ is 2.24.17. If you need any other info I am ready to provide it.

@Coacher Can you probably upload the screen shot again? The link seems broken. And maybe also in which program did you see this?

[Coacher]

The link has probably expired. Do you know any image hosting with nearly unlimited hosting time? Or maybe there is a way to attach it here?

The program is gtkfilechooser.

And 1 year should be enough for your purpose on my opinion.

And it seems that if you embed the image with ![text](url), github will keep a copy of it. (at list the image url will be different).

[yuyichao]

Oh, I think I understand what you mean now (again...). Are you talking about the combobox for file type?...

[yuyichao]

And btw, is it a standalone program? I see some weird rendering with the filechooser in firefox and thunderbird but the same dialog in other programs looks fine (which either means it is cause by some mozilla specific workaround or settings that are turned on/off only for mozilla with my setting). Can you please check if you can reproduce your problem with the demo script here and could you also paste your qtcurve setting?

[yuyichao]

A copy of the script (slightly modified) is here.

#!/usr/bin/env python2

import pygtk
pygtk.require('2.0')

import gtk

dialog = gtk.FileChooserDialog("Open..", None,
                               gtk.FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN,
                               (gtk.STOCK_CANCEL, gtk.RESPONSE_CANCEL,
                                gtk.STOCK_OPEN, gtk.RESPONSE_OK))
dialog.set_default_response(gtk.RESPONSE_OK)

_filter = gtk.FileFilter()
_filter.set_name("All files")
_filter.add_pattern("*")
dialog.add_filter(_filter)

_filter = gtk.FileFilter()
_filter.set_name("Images")
_filter.add_mime_type("image/png")
_filter.add_mime_type("image/jpeg")
_filter.add_mime_type("image/gif")
_filter.add_pattern("*.png")
_filter.add_pattern("*.jpg")
_filter.add_pattern("*.gif")
_filter.add_pattern("*.tif")
_filter.add_pattern("*.xpm")
dialog.add_filter(_filter)

response = dialog.run()
print(response)

Here's a link to susepaste with screenshot: http://susepaste.org/67361823

Yes, I meant the file type combobox. I am not sure whether gtkfilechooser can be used as a standalone program, I did that screenshot from "Open" dialog in gvim. If you don't have gvim, then tell me what common GTK programs you have installed and I'll try to reproduce this issue in them.

[Coacher]

Yes, this bug is reproducible using your script above.
