Ui fonts in dartium (chromium-fork) are invisible

Hello,
my dartium renders webpages correctly, but ui fonts (address-bar, tabs, menus,...) are not shown.  I can select the text and copy paste it.  During the selection the blue background is correctly shown.
chromium and chrome work fine.
I have tried starting dartium in a fresh user and still have the same problem.
kde (5.2) / gnome didn't change anything.
I even tried to change the rendering backend for the compositor to xrender.
If I am not mistaken chromium gets its font from:
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name               
'Cantarell 11'
I do have this font installed (and changing didn't help).
I have found some reports about broken fonts where reinstalling fontconfig did help.
Didn't help in my case.  I do use the infinality-bundle!  (fontconfig-infinality-ultimate).
any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

  • [SOLVED] Fonts in the chromium UI are garbled

    Hi,
    Fonts in the chromium UI are garbled like this:
    Pop-up menus are also garbled.
    Does anyone out there know how this could happen?
    The problem makes my favorite web browser almost unusable, as I cannot see what I'm typing and cannot read the UI menus. Navigating becomes sort of like walking through a room blindfolded.
    I have searched google and these forums but did not encounter the exact same problem elsewhere.
    Since this is the first time I have encountered this, and this happened on quite a fresh install on a laptop, I might resort to another clean install and not install the unused theming stuff I have installed now (and that I didn't keep track of). I suspect this has something to do with GTK and Pango but I'm not quite sure..
    But, if anyone has a suggestion..
    Thanks!
    ## UPDATE
    I solved the issue by installing google-chrome-dev from the AUR. First, my intention was just to see whether I would have the same problem with regular chrome. I did, but I also noticed something when I looked at the console output: fontconfig was throwing an error.
    So I looked at my fontconfig version, and saw that it was fontconfig-git. I didn't need that to be the git version so I downgraded to fontconfig. After that everything was back to normal. So, there is some evidence that google-chrome-dev, chromium and chromium-dev do not work well tied to fontconfig-git. I am now a happy camper

  • Font names are invisible in Ai CS5 after upgrading to OSX 10.10 Yosemite

    Hello,
    I am having a minor drawback on Adobe Illustrator CS5 after upgrading my iMac to OS X 10.10 Yosemite. The thing is when trying to select a font form a Type>Font selection mostly all font names are invisible. This only happens in Illustrator, Photoshop and Indesign works fine. I have attached a screenshot of what I am  seeing: after hovering with my mouse pointer over the particular font the name appears, but otherwise not.
    I will also address this issue to Apple support as well.
    Waiting for your reply.

    donelaitis,
    I believe post #15 in this thread may give the solution.

  • Did the update to OS 5...synched all my apps..then only 11 pages of apps are visible..the others are invisible..If I move an appfrom the 12 plus pages in itunes to a lower page...It becomes visible....WHY?..How can I get all 20 plus pages visible?

    OK....First,you are right, OS 5 has the 11 page limit....you must create folders of Apps until you get below 11 pages of combined folders and apps...NOTE.....the upgrade to OS 5 killed all of my old folders and folder organizations...this may be an issue for all????.....I have over 300 apps so when the old folders went away...I was left with 20 plus pages....only 11 visible....It took me awhile to find out what happened....Since I have 64G it seems that 11 visible pages is a silly limit since the apps are on the machine...

  • After a backup all music files are invisible and iTunes don't see anything

    Hi,
    I got a very strange problem and I'm really lost.
    I made a backup of my portable iTunes libray (using a 160 GB Maxtor one touch 4 mini usb) on another backup disk (750 GB Maxtor onetouch III firwire 800). I have my library on a external disk to safe disk space on my MacBook Pro disk. For the back up I use the software Personal Backu4 of Intego Software. The 160GB iTunes disk is Formatted als Mac OS Extended format.
    Now all back up data that aren't music files (AAC or MP3 files) was correctly back up, but all music files was like deleted, all artist > album folders looks empty. But, cheking with the disk utility it looks that all files exist and the Used space (36.06 GB) looks correctly and the numbers of files too (some 5942 files). But all files are invisible, folders looks empty. Now is looks that all purchased and CD imported int my library didn't exist anymore: and this in BOTH disks, side by side is the same situation.
    How I can come out from this situation, I really don't have any idea how to coming out fron this sad situation.
    Hany help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    OK, here's what REALLY doesn't make sense.
    After manually fixing a lost file, NOTHING in the XML changes. Not one single character changes in the XML file. I diff'd the whole file before and after - no difference. So, basically, it goes out and 'finds' it and updates something that we can't see to repair the connection, meanwhile we are left to think that this XML file has the library data in it.
    Mind you, the media file(s) are present and accounted for in the file system - correct name and path and everything - before and after I go Locate the file when iTunes complains about it being missing..
    iTunes is so overbloated, we can't even fix stuff when we see precisely how it is broken.

  • Icons in menu bar and standard menus are invisible!

    I'm having an issue with OS X 10.8.2 on my 15" (not Retina) Macbook Pro (late 2011, Core i7 2.4 GHz w/ 16GB RAM and SSD);
    The majority of system icons in the menu bar "extras" area (that is, to the right near the date/time in the menu bar) are blank. The area where the icon would be located is responsive to clicks, and drops a menu item down upon click, but the icons themselves are invisible. The same goes for Spotlight which has a spot for it's icon and responds to the hotkey of Apple + Spacebar, but the icon itself is invisible. The only icons that are visible are third party programs that run and place themselves there such as Little Snitch, and the battery low ("red" battery) indicator icon; other battery icons are invisible.
    Also invisible/blank are the icons for going back and forward in a Finder window as well as the back/forward icons in System Preferences sub-dialogs. The icons for choosing labels, changing the way Finder windows display (their view options), and a few others that I cannot name as I cannot see them are invisible as well. Icons that would normally display to the left of "All My Files", "AirDrop", "Applications", "Desktop", et cetera in the Finder window do not display, either.
    I have tried installing the 10.8.2 Combo Update and using the Disk Utility "Repair" and "Verify" Filesystem options but neither fixed the issue. I have tried deleting the cached plist files for the SystemUIServer as well but there was no change in the icon display (or, that is, lack of display!).
    I am running Mac OS X 10.8.2 (including the Combined Update) on the late-2011 Macbook Pro 15" w/ 2.4 GHz Core i7 (default 4GB memory and 750gb HDD; upgraded to 16GB of RAM and a Crucial M4 256GB SSD). I cannot recall if the problem started after I updated any system software or not; I upgraded to 10.8.2 via buying OS X Mountain Lion from the App Store so that I would have a copy on USB to install after replacing my HDD with my SSD. Everything worked fine on fresh installation, and I am not sure at what point the icons disappeared.
    Does anyone have any insight into this problem, and more importantly, how to correct it? Please see the screenshots below for a proper illustration of the problem I am experiencing. The sole icon visible, with the two columns, is Little Snitch 3.0.
       ^-- Clicking the menu bar battery icon (except, there is no icon!)
       ^-- Finder window with the icons for back/forward, view options, icons for location list items on the left, etc. missing
       ^-- System Preferences dialog, with icons for the back/forward function missing.
        ^-- Help window with the icons for back/forward and some other function missing.
    Thank you in advance!

    I have a similar issue. When the computer goes into "Hibernate" mode -- that is, it loses power while sleeping and it writes the contents of it's memory to disk in order to boot into that exact configuration when woken up -- many of my icons when Apple-Tab'ing to another application appear as static. They look like a slightly colorized version of the "static snow" you see when tuning into a station that doesn't exist on a UHF antenna television. Also, icons in Chrome such as web sites "favorite icons" or favicon.ico (the icons that appear in the URL bar and bookmarks) will be scrambled in the same fashion , at first , until the actual icon is loaded.
    Between this, my menu bar and finder icons not displaying, and being unable to boot into safe mode, I'm getting quite ******. I have no idea what the **** is going on with my Macbook Pro. The issue of the scrambled icons actually existed prior to installing an SSD and doing a fresh install of Mountain Lion. I may end up throwing in the towl and re-installing the operating system but I'm sure SOMETHING will happen. It seems the latest update, 10.8.2, is absolute garbage.
    What the ****, Apple? And I really don't want to take the computer to the morons at the Apple Store. They are not "geniuses" by any measure.

    Hello, ted_marx38. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    The most common cause for this issue would be media present that is purchased with another Apple ID.  When prompted to authorize the computer it may show a different Apple ID.  If this is the case, the computer will need to be authorized for this Apple ID.  The article below will walk you through the process of verifying if that is the case or correcting the issue if not.

  • Office 2010 / Exchange 2010 - Attachments in EML-Emails are invisible

    We are investigating a problem that seems to pop up with Exchange / Outlook 2010.
    This is the absolutly the same problem that Clemens Wunder wrote about in his tread:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/outlook/thread/afce3bd0-f8a4-419b-986a-0560ebff5f8f
    Problem:
    We got several eml-files in a Management System and those have attachmentes (word, pdf whatever) included.
    If i open those EML Files in Outlook 2010 (this works if the Registry is apropriate) the Email is opening but the Attachments are "invisible"...
    If i now save the Mesage from within Outlook 2010 as a MSG File and open this one the attachments are back...
    I searched for bout one week now for a solution but i still don't get it why this should be happening.
    My Specs:
    - Windows 7
    - Outlook 2010
    - Exchange 2010 (migrated from 2003)
    Fact:
    The same problem seems also to happen with Outlook 2007 and 2003 since the migration of Exchange 2003 to 2010.
    Those EML Files are from within a data management system and are stored as eml since bout 4 years.
    Please don't send answers like "Use Windows Mail" - this is not a solution for this matter because I can't.
    Exchange / Outlook is used at every customer of our company so WM can't be the solution...
    Thanks for your advices and tips
    Roman

    Hi Roman,
    To make sure I understand things correctly…..
    You have EML files generated by another program. Emails have one or more attachments.
    You have copied the EML files into your Outlook 2010 profile’s mail folder.
    When you open the item in the folder, you have to open or save the item. –You have HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Outlook.File.eml.14\shell\Open\command set
    to use Outlook 2010 to open the file.
    When you open the EML file, the message opens but the attachments are not visible.
    In actuality, when you open the EML file, Outlook is saving the file to your “..\..\Temporary Internet Files\Content.Outlook\” location.
    To see what Outlook is doing I started a Process Monitor trace,
     then dragged a Windows Live Mail EML message with a Word doc attached over to my Outlook 2010 Inbox.
    When I open the eml item, I am prompted to Open or Save the item. I opt for Open and the message with attachment is opened with Outlook 2010.
    The trace shows accessing the registry to find out what to use to open the EML file and then it shows the attached file being created in
    Temporary Internet Files. The attached file is seen,
    but nothing happens to it.

    28:14.1 
    OUTLOOK.EXE QueryDirectory   jahawk 
    C:\Users\jahawk\Documents\Help me.docx NO SUCH FILE
    From the opened EML file, you click File | Save As | And then save the item as an .MSG file.
    When you drag the MSG into your Outlook profile’s mail folder, the mail with attachments is visible.
    Looking at the mail folder, the EML item does not have a mail icon associated to it. The item shows no Attachment icon, because it cannot be
    read in yet. –You’d need to open the EML file in Outlook to view the message with attachment(s).
    Looking at the mail folder, the MSG item is an Outlook mail item and the attachments are showing up.
    So, let me ask the following:
    How was the item created?
    Does this happen with any file that is attached?
    In Windows Live Mail, attachments have a lot LESS properties associated to them
    Outlook 2010 actually has a PR_ATTACHMENT_HIDDEN property that can toggled to hide an attachment.
    What happens from Outlook Web Access? –You will have to right-click “Save Target As” on the attached eml message, first. When you
    open the saved “E-mail Message” from the save location, what results?
    Is your anti-virus possibly scanning the file? –“..\...\Temporary Internet Files\Outlook.content….”
    Anyways, to be honest, I’d have to have a copy of the EML file to be able to (hopefully) explain what is happening.
    If I had the file, I would use MFCMapi or OutlookSpy to dump the EML message’s properties after I’ve added it to my mailbox. I’d
    then open it and save it as an MSG file type. From there, I’d save the MSG file’s properties off and then compare the 2 sets of properties. And, the item has an Attachment Table that will contain the attached files. Each attachment will have its
    own set of properties.
    From an Outlook created message with attachment, you could compare the attachment’s properties to the props on the affected message.
    From a Windows Live Mail message with attachment, you could compare the attachment’s properties to the props on the affected message.
    For the kind of troubleshooting we'd need to do, I would suggest calling and opening a support incident with us. That would allow us to work with you
    at a much deeper level. For a case like this, a debug trace of opening the message from in Outlook 2010 would likely be necessary.
    Sorry I didn’t have better information for you.

  • Since upgrading to new version 3, my symbols layers are invisible?

    Since upgrading to new version of Adobe Edge animate 3, my symbols layers are invisible?
    The animation was originated in version 2, which works fine still, yet when I open the file in version 3, the symbols layers are not showing up on the stage?
    Any advice would be great as seems a shame to continue working in an older version.

  • Minimize, Maximize and Close buttons are invisible

    I have rather werid problem with Firefox since yesterday. Mainly the three buttons at the top corner are invisible. I can still click on them but I cannot see them, as if they are obscured by upper tab.
    I tried to launch Firefox in safe mode and I use standart theme. If I restart the computer it is fine, but once I close firefox and then open it again( or even if I just open new window) problem returns.

    If you use a non standard windows theme or made other appearance changes then try to revert those changes and use a (different) standard theme or Windows wallpaper.
    * Control Panel > Personalization > Theme & Window Color and Appearance
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Music files are invisible

    I was moving some music files the other day to categorize them within MY MUSIC folder. Then yesterday, I was trying to add some files from my ITunes to a flash drive and some of these files are now invisible. I don't know what I did wrong. I also did a Disk Utility Verify and Repair. Did that have something to do with my files becoming invisible? I don't have a clue how many of these music files are invisible. But I've noticed its a lot of them. How do I find these INVISIBLE files and make them VISIBLE again so I can copy them to the flash drive? They play just fine from the Source or from ITunes.. Please help.

    OK. I've never seen files or folders disappear on their own. Here's what I suggest. While booted into the new account, copy your other account's folder to another volume (disk or partition), launch System Preferences->Accounts, delete the bad account, selecting the *save data option* (which stores the data in /Users/Deleted Users/ as a disk image), recreate the bad account using the same username/password combo, log out and back into the recreated original account. If the problem's solved, open the saved data dmg file in /Users/Deleted Users/, open the /Library/Preferences/ folder from the saved data, open the current /Users/restored account/Library/Preferences/ folder, and slowly copy plist files from the saved data folder to the current one that don't exist in it. Log out and back in to ensure there's no conflict and things still work correctly. Resolving conflicts or identifying corrupt plist files or recovering missing/lost/hidden files is a laborious process. Good luck.

  • Items in trash are invisible.

    It seems that the items in the Aperture trash are invisible. They're there and delete-able, but the window is empty. Also the In the last week window is empty.
    Any ideas?

    I haven't had this problem, and don't want to force-create it, so I haven't tested this.  Would you mind doing so?
    Let's apply a variation of the Full Double Reverse Caggiano:
    Try this:
    1. Select a smart album (doesn't matter which).
    2. Open the Smart Album Settings Filter HUD by clicking the magnifying glass icon at the end of the line containing the Smart Album name on the Library tab of the Inspector.
    3. While that HUD is open, select Trash in the Inspector (the HUD should stay visible).
    4. Clear all the filters which have been set.
    5. Close the Filter HUD.
    Does that "reset" your Trash?
