So everyone can experiment with this and post his e.g. results here. Currently it's set for all widgets with button styling in the default theme with this setting: bg[PRELIGHT] = mix(0.90, shade (1.05,@bg_color), @selected_bg_color) > > * New code for drawing Tabs (more efficient) > > * Removed separator from Option Menu (I'm still not sure if it > > is for good or for bad) > > I'm not sure about this either - although it differentiates it from a > combo box it maybe looks incosistent? > A little...

About the panel, I still didn't have enough time to explore this area, but from try with many different themes that implement different than plain colour on the panel it seems a bit buggy, especially when a user decides to make one of his panels transparent... I believe Clearlooks guys are going to venture to this area in some of the next gnome releases and as they are from the gnome team itself they ought to know best how to make it possible. The best place to ask for adding features is in Nodoka trac ticket system [1]. I believe I opened the ticket system so that it's usable even for unauthorised people, so everyone can open/comment tickets. And best place to submit and discuss sketches of what might the changes be, prior to submitting a RFE/Feature Request, is this list ;-) > All in all, great work :) > > Best wishes, > > Jon Martin References: [1] https://fedorahosted.org/nodoka/newticket or https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/nodoka/newticket
