for the noticeability issue, what about putting a blue glow on the active task that looks like the button hover effect (like buttons in the calculator applet) it would look a bit more colorful, with more contrast and recalling the ctive window effect(maybe the inactive tasks a bit lighter too) hope to get something done asa (humm, maybe tomorrrow...) and then with 4.3 we can try to do a light theme if necessary, but doing it now would require to redo pretty much everything from scratch (well, we could also try) > > what color? > > i could imagine a few directions .. one is to go with something light that > plays off the highlight colours in the default wallpaper; another might be > a rich cream colour that isn't too bright (admitedly somewhat retro; > another might be a rich, dark, dusky blue (though i'm concerned how that > might work with icons like the kmenu?); a sophisticated deep brownish black > ... > > it really doesn't have to be too dramatic (e.g. cream) to provide greater > contrast between the buttons and the panel; the Gtk Dust theme is > interesting in that it's a charcoal with hints of red/yellow in it. > > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/DustTheme?action=show&redirect=Art >work%2FIncoming%2FIntrepid%2FDustTheme hmm this is really black too, it has just some lighter colors here and there , is what we tried to do with pushbuttons, probably we just need to use that graphics a bit more, both that and the glows (for now blue, could also try with warmer colors eh) > it's really the starkness of the black in the current panel that gives it > both an overly cold touch and limits the visual contrast between the > background and foreground elements. _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
