screenshot of breeze scrollbars
The Breeze scrollbar appearance has changed quite a lot, especially with commit
d4b07d9e1daf0dd1185eda8c905c2f2c87541ccf[1] from January.
However, the change has only partially been adopted to breeze-gtk. Attached is
an image that shows from left to right:
- breeze-gtk,
- breeze-gtk mouse hovering,
- breeze-gtk dark,
- breeze-gtk dark mouse hovering,
- breeze,
- breeze, mouse hovering
So especially the breeze-gtk dark theme has to catch up, it has an ugly fat
scrollbar that doesn't suit the breeze design. Apart from size/shape, the
scrollbar is not blue although the view has focus. Note that for the reference
breeze/qt screenshot it's grey either, but that's because the view/window was
not in focus.
Also, with breeze-gtk there is a fixed background color, while for Qt apps it
looks like it's transparent. However, I'm not sure if that's a framework
constraint.
Some additional thoughts: Sorry to say that, but breeze-gtk maintenance looks a
bit sloppy. Some important changes like change of scrollbar appearance[2] or
refactoring work [3] is only being done for the light theme. Is there a
specific reason why both styles are being maintained separately instead of
using common files, then colour files and @import?
Is anyone working on improving the situation? Because if not, let me know and I
could have a look. The consistent look is important, I suspect not only for me,
and there is need for some GTK+ apps that won't just go away by using Plasma.
