Anecdotally-- iirc, 6 out of 7 people on my team use white on black. Personally, I find the aubergine attractive for a terminal or two, but distracting when my while desktop is covered with them (I am *not* suggesting we change the default color of the terminal). I know when I walk around conferences, sprints, etc, I see more balanced mixture, but white on black is used enough to where, IMHO, we don't want to ignore it.
"And would not such dev's be in a better position in such cases to alter unity.css to meet there personal needs vs. common users?" - I think so, but my point is I don't think it should be too difficult for people to adjust. I commented in this bug i part because I don't know about how to do what you are suggesting. Is the documentation readily available for this? Can this be done per application (ie, I can adjust for only gnome- terminal)? I guess I would ask what a common user is. In the past, I think it has been defined in part as someone who doesn't use a terminal. Within the last year, I've heard time and again from within Canonical that the developer use case is vitally important and developers must be included in our target users on the desktop for all kinds of reasons. The developer is a common user of Ubuntu-- whether that is a cloud developer, web developer, app developer, etc and while a developer may be capable of searching through documentation and changing CSS somewhere, I think we should make small but important tweaks like this easy for them (ie, let's not take any of the delight of using Ubuntu away if we can help it). Others options I thought of when responding: have a 3rd theme based on Ambiance that works better with dark windows. Another is it could also be cool if when changing the color scheme in gnome-terminal, if it is some sort of light on dark, that the css for gnome-terminal be adjusted accordingly. That is of course gnome-terminal specific, but this would likely satisfy the largest proportion of developers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1281368 Title: Decorations: windows should have 0px (bottom and side) borders To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/1281368/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
