Comment #5 on issue 16271 by [email protected]: GTK Theme uses wrong color
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=16271
This is more a feature request then a bug.
GTK Themes work by giving a set of colors to the application and a theme
engine that
actually does the drawing based on the above colors. I'm given a set of
fg/bg/base/text colors in each of the five GTK widget states. There's no
such thing
as titlebar color--this is a property of your window manager.
In all of the GTK themes installed by default on Ubuntu, the titlebar is
bg[SELECTED]
with minor tinting by convention. Mirroring this is the closest I can get
without
additional information. It would be nice if GTK themes carried a titlebar
color, but
they don't, and dealing with all the window managers is impractical, even
assuming I
could query a base color. (In metacity, a theme appears to be a set of
cairo drawing
primitives serialized into XML, so I don't think that's an option.)
One idea that won't happen because it requires the cooperation of everyone
is to have
a defined color in the gtk_color_scheme part of the gtkrc file, such as the
already
existing metacity_frame_color from Human. I can see us saying, "Theme
authors:
specify this color if you want to control the rendering," as a good
compromise.
(Also, I have no idea where you got the above theme. It's not installed by
default on
ubuntu and doing an apt-cache search for it shows nothing.)
