aww that sucks, I just upvoted. Hopefully It gets fixed soon.
Diamondalonzo Ekaterina Valeeva Looks like this is caused by X11 on Linux. Those menu windows are handled by X11, and X11 by itself does not have rounded corners. With the help of https://github.com/yshui/picom project, I was able to set rounded corners for JetBrains products:
In picom config:
rules: (
{ match = "class_g *= 'jetbrains'"; corner-radius = 7; }
)
If you are using Wayland based WMs (for example Hyprland or Niri), you should have rounded corners out of the box if you run the JetBrains product natively on Wayland - https://blog.jetbrains.com/platform/2024/07/wayland-support-preview-in-2024-2/ , without any additional tool like picom. For Wayland WMs, such tools like picom are not needed.
