Public bug reported: Adwaita and Yaru both export colors at the top of their CSS file from within this source files: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/blob/master/gtk/theme/Adwaita/_colors-public.scss#L84 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/blob/gtk-3-24/gtk/theme/Adwaita/_colors-public.scss
gnome-software uses some of those colors in their in-app CSS that overwrites the global gtk theme: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/blob/master/src/gtk-style.css Most likely those are the correct colors. In three cases sadly not and it is too late to get an upstream change for 20.04 now because gnome is already in UI freeze for this cycle: 1) The round checkmarks inside the App boxes that show that the app is installed are orange instead of green, which is semantically wrong since they are not selected and should instead show that you successfully installed that app: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/blob/master/src/gtk-style.css#L12 Change .installed-icon { color: @theme_selected_bg_color; } to .installed-icon { color: @success_color; } https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/blob/gtk-3-24/gtk/theme/Adwaita/_colors-public.scss#L84 -> exported to: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/blob/gtk-3-24/gtk/theme/Adwaita/gtk-contained.css#L2021 2) The little [1] boxes inside the "stackswitcher" in the headerbar (it's actually a buttonbox in this case, but this is offtopic) that show up if you are either installing X apps or have X updates would be orange, if we would not "hack" a biiiig box-shadow over them to make them green. This is first of all a dirty hack and secondly there are little orange pixels showing up at the rounding Change .counter-label { ... ... background-color: mix(@theme_selected_bg_color, @theme_selected_fg_color, 0.3); ... ... ... } To .counter-label { ... ... background-color: @success_color; ... ... ... } https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/blob/master/src/gtk-style.css#L422 3) The "given" stars are not visible in both Adwaita and Yaru dark. For some reason, upstream transparentizes them into oblivion with the "shade-function". The enabled stars should just use the theme's fg color: Change .star-enabled, .star-enabled:disabled { color: shade(@theme_fg_color, 0.8); } to .star-enabled, .star-enabled:disabled { color: @theme_fg_color; } https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/blob/master/src/gtk-style.css#L412 Thank you very much in advance! I try to get this into gnome-shell's upstream repo in the next cycle ** Affects: gnome-software (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1862056 Title: Theme: use other exported colors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-software/+bug/1862056/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
