Confirmed on my system, Hardy with latest updates. I am the author of the Human-Murrine and Human-Clearlooks theme modifications that added color chooser support. Metacity uses a shade of the "Selected items" background colour for these themes, but will not update in real-time when changed via the colour chooser in gnome- appearance-properties.
It's necessary to force a metacity update, using the workaround as mentioned by Christoffer, or "pkill metacity", for example. It would be nice if we could get this small bug fixed in time for release. -- gnome-appearance-properties fails to update metacity colour https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209249 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
