wxToggleButton in wxGTK3: Focused and Toggled state are visually identical

[jpo-wx]

Hello all,

as the subject says: a wxToggleButton in wxGTK3 that just has the focus looks visually identical to a toggled one. And it seems there is no way to prevent a Control to get the focus...

Regards

Is this also the case in native GTK applications on your system? I.e. are
we doing something wrong or is it just another unfortunate GTK decision?

Vadim,

this seems to be a generic GTK issue.

Unfortunately the only thing I can say is the same as usually: you can
change your .gtkrc or add calls to add the styles on program startup if you
really have to (this is not recommended, but I understand that sometimes
this can be unavoidable and it's your decision to make). But the default
behaviour is to just use the current GTK theme with its current settings
and we really can't do much about it.

P.S. Another thing we can't do anything about is Google spam filtering,
which somehow caught your 3 previous attempts to post this, as I've
just learnt. I've rejected them because this message did get through
finally, but I have no idea what did it find wrong with the previous
ones. Again, sorry about this, but there is unfortunately nothing we
can do about it.
