Missing icons/text in some menu bars
Hi,
I have upgraded from Mint x64 17.1 to 17.2, now I have some problems with cinnamon (I think it's cinnamon related).
In some programs (Gedit, Libreoffice, etc...) I can't see text/icons anymore: look at these screens
What problem is that? How can I solve it?
Thanks

Try to switch too the default themes. After that restart Cinnamon (ctrl-alt-esc).

How can I do that? Do I have to go to Settings/Themes?Cosmo. wrote:Try to switch too the default themes. After that restart Cinnamon (ctrl-alt-esc).
Re: Missing icons/text in some menu bars
Yes. Choose as theme Mint-X or Linux Mint (all type of themes).
Re: Missing icons/text in some menu bars
ok thanks, the problem was with the custom effects. I unchecked them and now I solved the problem with the top menu.Cosmo. wrote:Yes. Choose as theme Mint-X or Linux Mint (all type of themes).
But I still have the problem with libreoffice.
Re: Missing icons/text in some menu bars
Go in LO to preferences -> personalization and try to switch the theme.

Re: Missing icons/text in some menu bars
Another attempt:
Close LO completely, don't forget the quick starter.
Open your file manager and make hidden files visible.
Go into the folder .config and rename the sub-folder libreoffice to libreoffice.bck.
Start LO and check, a new LO-profile gets automatically created, this might take some more time for the start.
What do you get?
For getting back to your old profile:
Close LO completely as above.
Delete the sub-folder libreoffice.
Rename libreoffice.bck back to libreoffice.
Start LO.
Close LO completely, don't forget the quick starter.
Open your file manager and make hidden files visible.
Go into the folder .config and rename the sub-folder libreoffice to libreoffice.bck.
Start LO and check, a new LO-profile gets automatically created, this might take some more time for the start.

Create a new user account. Does it display correctly there?
Re: Missing icons/text in some menu bars

Re: Missing icons/text in some menu bars
Would have been good, if you would have written at the beginning, that you use LO 5. I cannot help you with this, because I always use the so called still branch, as long as its life cycle did not reach the end.
