nautilus-cd-burner/trash banner color not following theme
Last modified: 2008-10-22 15:22:24 UTC
Comparing to deskbar-applet when you trigger nautilus-cd-burner, you'll see a blue banner instead of one which color is picked up from the theme. (flagrant when using clearlooks-olive) Could this banner be of a color of the theme or either unify behavior with deskbar-applet
Seems like it is set in nautilus-window.c to #define EXTRA_VIEW_WIDGETS_BACKGROUND "#a7c6e1" Reassigning to nautilus.
this is also true for new trash banner in gnome-2.17. Is a color like the one deskbar selects acceptable or should nautilus try to calculate a lighter color ?
*** Bug 421915 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Some years after, I've gained much experience and realised this is a theme thingy. This is handled in clearlooks based theme (in gnome-themes) by a rule that applies a shade to one of the dominant colors of theme so it follows nicely. Closing obsolete since it was probably already themeable at the time I reported the bug, just the theme didn't know yet about the custom widget.
on a side note, maybe this bug can be reopened if you consider that nautilus should know about the colors of the theme and apply the rule itself to avoid extra rules per app for themes in general. Something like this is more or less on the ranks for fix general themeability issues in evolution (etree/etable theming issues).
