Bug ID: 500655
Summary: Using focus color for the active window shadow to
improve visibility
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.3.1
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: effects-present-windows
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Currently the Kwin uses the same shadow color for all active/inactive windows.
It's only the active window having a stronger shadow.
That is not easy to find the current active window, especially when using the
dark theme.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use the default breeze dark them
2. Start 4 or more konsole windows
3. Have a good luck to find the current active konsole window in a quick glance
OBSERVED RESULT
One needs to take several seconds to find out which window is active.
EXPECTED RESULT
One should take no time to find out which window is active just using the
shadow color
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.11.0
Qt Version: 6.8.2
Kernel Version: 6.13.2-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm not sure if KDE/QT supports different window colors for active/inactive
windows.
If possible, that is also a good way to improve visibility.
