Hi,

The problem seems to have started after changing the kde control center
setting for "Appearance & Themes" -> "GTK Styles and Fonts" -> "Use my KDE
style in GTK applications". I just confirmed this on an X86_64 box that I had
not made this setting on. I opened ooowriter and all buttons were there in a
very flat and ugly style. I then changed the above setting which required a
KDE restart. So I logged out and logged back in, reopened the same document
and all of the buttons started disappearing.
Has anyone else seen anything like this? More importantly, how do I fix it?
I have no direct solution; when I was still using gtk-qt-engine, I was
encountering weird problems all the time (fonts in menus being white
instead of black which made them hard to read is one I remember the
most). Then I discovered qtcurve. It's a highly configurable and a very
nice (in my opinion) style for QT/KDE _and_ GTK as well. When you
install packages qtcurve-kde4, qtcurve-kde3 and qtcurve-gtk2 from
[community], you gain a nice, clean and unified look for all KDE, QT and
GTK applications without any additional help (I don't even have that
"Use my KDE style in GTK applications" option checked in KDE settings).
So give it a shot, maybe you'll like it.
