When I create a Layout with both an ok and cancel button on it then on Linux, they swap positions. On Windows it works fine.

for example:

Layout:

On Windows

On Linux

There is KDE and Windows which have [OK] [Cancel] order, and Gnome and MacOS which have [Cancel] [OK]. U++ uses Gnome way of displaying buttons on Linux.

See SwapOKCancel_Write(true) in CtrlLib/ChGtk.cpp and ArrangeOKCancel(Ctrl& ok, Ctrl& cancel) in TopWindow.cpp.
