Yaru: Gtk3: context menus are hard to distinguish from the background

Created on 1 Jul 2020  路  8Comments  路  Source: ubuntu/yaru

Similar to the shell shadows, I preferred the "Yaru 1.0" shadows. I think @madsrh could remember what I mean.
This is not enough in my opinion and it looks like it's on the same layer as the background:

    Any more ideas?
    Why did we change the menu color from white to fafafa btw? :thinking: I think white "popped" up more in the light theme(s)

I'm definitely +1 for more shadow

I agree with Mads, can we try a bit more? It doesn't really look like a shadow

Do we consider this to be a contrast problem that needs to be put into focal?

The point release is quite close. I think I am ok with current, so it is ok for me to keep it this way on focal, however I prefer the shadow if it is sensible

All good suggestions. I think I prefer #1 (on my phone)

White was better. If we changed it dillibertly, it was probably to unify all the menus/pop-over backgrounds

I also prefer the first one. Good improvement 馃憤

I agree on #1
