Hi, this should be solved in Yaru 20.04.5 released a couple of days ago. Could you check which version you have?

dpkg -l | grep yaru

ii yaru-theme-gnome-shell 20.04.5 all Yaru GNOME Shell desktop theme from the Ubuntu Community
ii yaru-theme-gtk 20.04.5 all Yaru GTK theme from the Ubuntu Community
ii yaru-theme-icon 20.04.5 all Yaru icon theme from the Ubuntu Community
ii yaru-theme-sound 20.04.5 all Yaru sound theme from the Ubuntu Community

... I think I may have changed, yes ... into a lighter shade of grey?

In Yaru 20.04.5 the highlight is brighter than before. Can we close this?

[Feichtmeier]

yes. in the Bionic snap edge it's not happening. (btw could you release stable? :0)

[sorenoneill]

Yes fine. Personally I would have preferred something even lighter og perhaps with a purple bar underneath ... but it's certainly much better than it was

[clobrano]

btw could you release stable

Done 👍️

[Feichtmeier]
