I found a solution that works without compliling from source. I'm sending it to the list in-case it's useful for someone else. The solution involves applying a theme and making a small modification to it.
1. git clone https://github.com/Jazqa/adwaita-tweaks.git ~/.themes/'Adwaita Tweaks' (home page for this theme is here: https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1179399/) 2. The theme can be selected using the Gnome Tweak Tool. Under Appearance, Theme, GTK+ select Adwaita Tweaks 3. edit ~/.themes/'Adwaita Tweaks'/gtk-3.0/gtk.css 4. Remove this section: .nautilus-window treeview .view { color: #232729; background: #FFFFFF; border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(232, 232, 232, 1); } You could also remove just everything after the @import line. 5. Save then restart Gnome Shell by Alt-F2 and r. -- nautilus-list mailing list nautilus-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/nautilus-list
