What happened?

First off, I love the theme, so thanks!

There seems to be an issue in GTK 3.20 with dropdown box transitions. As the theme is currently configured, dropdown boxes will initially appear truncated, showing 1 - 2.5 entries or quickly selecting something and closing, then will show completely if closed, then opened a second time. I tacked on a couple of pictures - yes, from my phone, as I apparently can't take screenshots when a dropdown list is open.

This issue can be fixed by commenting out a bit of code in the gtk.css files in all GTK 3.20 directories. In this case, there are two: one in the top level of the Windows 10 Dark theme directory, and another in the GTK-3.0 directory (for anyone not familiar).

Problem Code:

decoration {
  transition: 200ms ease-out; }
  decoration:backdrop {
    transition: 200ms ease-out; }

@SoleInvictus thank you very much! This has been a common complaint with the theme, and I never managed to find the cause. Your fix does indeed fix this issue.

I'll try to find some time to push a fix for this in the coming days and open a PR to get it fixed.
