Using Glx-Dock version 3.0.0 from Debian Testing (Wheezy),
Running pure XFCE4 4.8, with only the thunar file system manager installed,
nVidia Graphics.
Problem:
I am using the default dock view for all my docks.
If I start the xfce "Appearance" utility and choose a different "Style", the entire cairo dock disappears.
Cairo-Dock was still running, however - I could still right click at the dock screen edge and get up a cairo menu.
In my case I had the Mac4Lin_GTK_Aqua style running, but I don't think the problem is style-dependant.

Hi,
does it happen if you use the cairo backend (cairo-dock -c) ? |

fabounet : Hi,

Sadly, yes.
Also, no error message appears in the terminal window.
If I run:
I see these messages:

Just in case my initial theme was buggy (it was Mac4Lin_GTK_Aqua), I tried starting with a known good theme (the built-in Xfce one) and switched to another built-in one (Xfce-dawn) the same problem happens, with these messages:

could you please try this under Metacity ? you may need to install it, then "metacity --replace&" in a terminal to launch it, and I think it's "xfwm --replace&" to come back to the original WM. |

Ok, I installed metacity wm and switched to it.
I could then switch styles without the dock going blank. So the problem appears to be associated with xfwm.
When using metacity, there is a big black rectangle around the dock - maybe because under metacity I don't have compositing enabled?
For your info, here is the debug output when switching styles under metacity:

Thank you for testing.

yes, there is a gconf key to enable.
Personally, I can't reproduce the problem with Compiz either.
so the problem seems that xfwm doesn't draw the dock any more after a theme switching.
I think that reporting the bug to the xfwm devs is the best option |
