Yaru: Update the color of the progress bars

Created on 9 Sep 2019  ·  9Comments  ·  Source: ubuntu/yaru

Hi,
Would it be possible to change the color of the progress bars in Yaru? The blue color is too bright compared to the rest of the theme.
This is all the more obvious with the new light theme when changing the volume.

Hi,

The color palette is going to be reviewed in the next cycle, but I can't promise anything right now.
By the way, the new light theme changed only the headerbar color

I know but I find that the color is less harmonious with the new theme :)

When using Transmission, the entire torrent entry is highlighted in Orange. But with that comes this Blue progress bar. It is certainly a kind of mismatch in that scenario.

This is the "old" theme pre-upstream-resync right? It should be white with master

I see. Thanks for reminding.

I can't test at the moment, but does this mean that we can close this issue?

I did a few experiments and just wanted to share them here for future reference regarding the color palette review. These were my best ideas and they are pretty bad 🤦‍♂ I still prefer the current bright blue.

Thanks for the efforts @madsrh
But I agree with you
What is exactly different now that the dark headerbar is gone in the light theme, that makes the blue different than before? It is the EXACT same bg_color and base_color and what not. Nothing changed except the headerbar. Imho this issue is pointless, sorry.

It is always good to keep the progress bar bright. Most use case scenarios will support it.
