custom-accent-colors's Issues

Accent Color Not Applying to Top Bar

Description:

The accent color seems to have changed everywhere except for the top bar, as seen in the image below:

Schermata del 2024-06-14 19-46-25

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Change the accent color in the settings.
  2. Observe that the accent color updates across various elements. (after reboot/restarting the session)
  3. Notice that the top bar retains the old color.

Expected behavior:
The accent color should update uniformly across all UI elements, including the top bar.

Actual behavior:
The top bar retains the previous color even after the accent color is changed.

[ MORE COLORS ] I want a "teal color" shell theme

tela icons, papirus icons and many other icon themes have teal folders which look great but I want a teal theme so that I can use the teal version of most of the icon packs... also ubuntu's yuru has a teal shell theme so as I use Arch I miss the teal shell

Wallpaper accent color?

Hi. What do you think about adding a function to extract the accent color from a current desktop wallpaper automatically? It can be easily extracted using the 'node-vibrant' library.

import Vibrant from "node-vibrant";
const colors = await Vibrant.from(wallpaper).getPalette();
const accentColor = colors.LightVibrant;

Sorry for the duplicate, just wanted to show an easy solution for this.

Set custom color feature

I think adding an option where you can pick a hex color would make the extension 2x as good. This is very much a feature request.

Light theme

I would like this extension to support a light theme like the default theme does when using the light theme extension

Majaro, blue is green

The extension offers 9 colors, but the files (gnome-shell.css) generated by the extension are 8 because Blue (default) is supposed to be blue, but in Manjaro with Gnome 43 this color is the green of MAIA so it turns green.

Enhancements on shell ?

I wonder if it's possible to have a bit of transparency on the shell...
Don't know how but it could be cool on dialog boxes

The shell theme moves the active application dot up onto the icon

This is what my icons look like now (using the custom accent colors shell theme):

This is the expected behavior:

I am on Arch Linux using gnome-shell 1:46.2-1.

Here's a bit more system info:

I'm not sure what changed to have this happen, but I just noticed today. I tried reinstalling the extension, but no luck. If there is anything I should try and anything I can do to help, please let me know.

workaround for overwritten gtk.css file

I was looking for a way to reenable the little stepper arrows in scrollbars on Manjaro Gnome and came across a quickfix where you add some CSS code to gtk.css.

This extension is installed and enabled by default in Manjaro Gnome and unfortunately always overwrites my changes to gtk.css upon restart. I've discussed the problem in the Manjaro Forum and was advised to ask for a workaround or tip. So here I am. :)

Is there some kind of workaround for the problem you can recommend? Maybe some other 'user file' where I could save these GTK CSS changes to without 'Custom Accent Colors' overwriting them?

(enhancement) Use Yellow 5 instead of Yellow 4

The GNOME-Shell itself currently uses dark mode, regardless of the users preferences, so it is kind of necessary to make sure the theme looks good in dark mode, and the yellow one is currently not looking good, because the yellow is to light to be used as the background for white Text. Also, people who use dark mode do have this problem not only in the shell, but also in other apps, so you should use a dark yellow. You currently use the second-darkest yellow, but it is still to light, so I would consider switching to Yellow 5 (e5a50a) wich is the darkest yellow available in the GNOME HIG. This request is like #7 but for yellow.

Thank you in advance!

What does the "Flatpak Theming" option do?

What does the "Flatpak Theming" option do? I mean, accent colours are represented in the universal Portals API which native, Flatpak, etc. apps can always use if they want. So, why dedicated option for Flatpak?
