You have changed only for classic theme? No font change? or DPI?

Hi Pierre...
Not sure of your question, but the problem shows with all of the MP styles. I can send screenshots but don't have time today.
Are you layering two controls for the Filter thing? Or is that a special control available in QT? Regardless, it appears to be a composite of
two controls.
Perhaps a "standard", editable combo box that collects the entries PLUS a couple of buttons to manage the list, apply/cancel the filter...
Here is a quick and dirty (and ugly) illustration:
+ (Add current value to list of filters)
- (Remove current value from list of filters)
X Disable filter

Default theme, default fonts, default resolution, and no effects.
If you compare the two screen caps, ...
... you'll see that the problem has to do with the Qt style sheet.
Pierre, do you know which selectors are responsible for the search field and the stop button? I can't find it on Trolltech's site

It's a custom control

Correct.
It doesn't matter which style (Windows/Motif/CDE/Plastique/Cleanlooks) I use.
As soon as I activate the
View »
Style »
Theme option, this UI problem with the search box shows up.
To fix it, I have to remove
all text in the DlgEdit window.
Even if just a simple space character (
Alt+032) is left behind, our problem persists.

Yes! Confirmed as you describe. Good detecting!
To reproduce:
Create a theme, apply it.
Observe display problem.
Clear theme, apply.
Close MP.
Restart MP.
Display issue no longer visible.
