I had a hard time getting the Axon.ivy Designer to run on my KDE Neon desktop. The designer application - basically a custom Eclipse build - starts fine but when I try to launch the browser view, the Eclipse instance crashes. Browsing the Eclipse bugtracker showed that this is a common problem or in other words "practically speaking the embedded browser widget is unusable" on a recent Linux version. It was proposed that installing libwebkitgtk-1.0 would fix the problem, but that did not work for me. Instead installing libwebkitgtk-3.0 and a minor tweak finally fixed the problem for me.

I recently made a mistake. I upgraded Kubuntu to the latest version. At first glance everything looked fine, however I quickly realized that something went wrong when I tried to use Eclipse. Opening some dialogs made Eclipse segfault. Reinstalling Eclipse did not work so I took the route to the Eclipse bugtracker and found bug #440660. As it seems the Oxygen GTK theme which is used by KDE to make GTK application "look nice" is incompatible with the Eclipse SWT library. Swichting to another GTK theme was not an option. Luckily the bug report shows a work-a-round to fix the problem:

Mit jedem neuen Release von Eclipse gibt viele neue Features zu entdecken, so auch in dem Plug-in Development Environment (PDE) Projekt. Ein echter Geheimtipp ist der Plug-in Spy der seit Version 3.4 das Schreiben Eclipse-Plugins vereinfacht. Mittels der Tastenkombination Alt + Shift + F1 wird das Plugin gestartet und zeigt hilfreiche Informationen zu dem aktuell gewählten Element an. Der Plugin Spy funktioniert dabei in Views, Dialogen sowie den Einstellungs-Dialogen.

Die Möglichkeit war mir bislang nicht bekannt und von daher das Interesse groß das ganze einmal auszuprobieren.
