thinking well... maybe it would be better to take away the gradiant and replace it with one single color.
reason: take a look on firefox... you can't see any change between the top panel (or window top bar) and the dark content. you can't see where it start or where it sends. and honestly it looks smoother in my opinion. I like the color style in firefox that much that maybe that kind of coloring (without gradiant) could work for all toolbars in unity/gnome3. so finally my suggestions to work around the theme are: 1. changing the container organisation (like discuessed before in comment 6 and 7) or 2. replace the gradiant with a single color... thx -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/857089 Title: suggestion: nautilus tweak in ambience theme Status in Ayatana Design: Triaged Status in Unity: Invalid Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: hi, after reviewing the current beta release of oneiric, I found that there are mostly great design improvements. Just the nautilus theme looks quite weired. the sidebar looks like a "cancer" IN MY OPINION. that is given because the sidebar comes with a different color schema in the Ambience theme. The most important part is that the sidebar does feel like a part of nautilus and not like a unthemed plugin.... My suggestions: 1) Toolbar, Sidebar and Pane with the same color and/or gradiant 2) ...or... The upper part of the sidebar could have the same color/gradiant as the toolbar and so "acting" as it would be part of the toolbar (although it's not).. for suggestion one, I attached a possible tweak that I gimped. The upper part of the sidebar continues the gradiant of the toolbar and the rest of the sidebar continues uni-colored. ------------------------------- Desired solution: Update Nautilus theme to follow the attached "tweak suggestion" image (suggestion 1 above) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/857089/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
