There's a bug report filled in Launchpad and it has been confirmed, so I don't think there's anything you can do to fix that other than waiting for an update.

It doesn't seem to affect the program in any way other than throwing the error to the console, if you ran the app from a launcher you wouldn't even notice :/

The gtk_widget_get_preferred_height_for_width function should return the natural, proportional height of a widget for a given width. If the gnome-tweak-tool UI is drawing fine you can just ignore it until it's fixed.

I had constant issues with gnome-tweak-tool. While it was great when it worked completely with no errors, I eventually got tired of it. :p

I hope Gnome 3.6 has this tool built-in and fully functioning.

works totally fine for in gnome 3.4, i've never had any problems with it.

    • True they were Inspiron models and Dell's SupportAssist has a long history of security vulnerabilities. I also had problems with Dell System Detect and the Dell Software Update utility program. It was all way too much trouble. So I just removed all of them and manually did updates from their website but that was also a pain. Overall, the Inspiron's were decent enough until one became unusable for Windows after a malware attack. I Installed Ubuntu on it and used it with Ubuntu for several months before giving it away.
    • You can now turn 2D images into 3D objects with Copilot's new feature by Taras Buria Copilot Labs, a section with various experimental features in Microsoft's AI assistant, received a new feature called Copilot 3D. With this feature, Copilot lets you transform 2D images into usable 3D objects. Microsoft wants to simplify the process of creating 3D models, giving users a useful tool that has no steep learning curves and does not require installing complicated software. With Copilot 3D, users can transform images into 3D models for later use in game development, animations, 3D printing, design, AR or VR content, art projects, and more. Additionally, users can browse a library of various 3D objects and scenes for inspiration, which sounds awfully familiar to the now-deceased Paint 3D and its content marketplace. Copilot 3D is a one-click solution. All you need is to upload a picture (PNG or JPG, less than 10MB) and wait for Copilot to do its job. Unfortunately, Copilot cannot generate 3D objects from text prompts, at least for now, as Microsoft says in the announcement article. Copilot 3D is available for free globally to a subset of Copilot users, but you need a Microsoft Account to access it from the browser. Once your object is generated, you can download it in GLB format so that you can later modify it in any compatible 3D viewer, editor, or game engine. Microsoft also adds that all creations are stored for 28 days, and the company does not use the uploaded images for model training or personalization. In case you missed it, Microsoft recently introduced another Copilot Labs feature, which gives the assistant a physical appearance with physical expressions and emotions for a more natural conversation in Voice Mode. Also, Microsoft launched Gaming Copilot in Game Bar so that AI can see what is going on on the screen and give you tips, suggestions, and other useful information.
    • Shou Zi Chew was Xiaomi's CFO for five years and was with them when they were blacklisted by the first Trump administration. Xiaomi was subsequently removed from the blacklist by the Biden administration. Sen. Cotton was also a Senator when Xiaomi was blacklisted though I don't recall if he was influential in bringing about the blacklisting.
