Feature request for high contrast theme: hover-highlighting on inactive windows about window_borders_mint_19 HOT 1 OPEN

No promises as it was never my intention to do any more than fix these up so they were selectable and worked OK as originally designed with Cinnamon 3.8+

I've have subsequently gone a bit further and tweaked a few for better compatibility with colourising from the GTK theme, the bonus ones ended up there having provided support to users on the Mint forums wanting to know how to make bigger buttons etc...

HighContrast is frankly a mess with regards to GTK theme compatibility - I don't think the original Gnome Authors considered people would use it with anything other than the HighContrast GTK theme. I did make a start on a wholesale fix in response to your first issue and then reverted and did the basics needed to fix the issue as described. It's a big job to make it work well with a wide variety of GTK themes.

I might (emphasis might) try and make a fixed up HighContrastRedux. I'm not sure it's worth the time given that Cinnamon will drop support for metacity entirely in a version or two and I've got a bit of a job on my hands updating a bunch of themes for Cinnamon 4 imminently so need to focus my limited time on that.
