More distinct selection between active panel and inactive #366

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What feature would you like to be added or changed?

The selected items on both sides have the same background color. So I usually 
copy file in the wrong direction by mistake. It's a disaster when updating 
file. If the selected items of inactive panel are less attractive(e.g. gray bg) 
than active ones, that will be better.

As fig shows, the left selected file 'main.cs' has the same background color as 
the right one. It's not easy to identify the active selection.

Ah okay. I see. It's a known "issue". More of a theme problem. GTK+ shows 
selection even when component doesn't have focus. That's why I highlight tab 
title bar to make it easier regardless of theme. 

While I understand this issue, there's isn't a single solution that fits all 
use cases in GTK version 2.x which 0.2 is using. I could change selection color 
and force it to change when loosing focus I am not entirely sure it will work 
good on all themes.

I will try to fix it, but most likely this issue will be resolved once we 
switch to GTK3, which should be soon anyway.

For further development regarding this issue I suggest following newly created 
issue on GitHub: https://github.com/MeanEYE/Sunflower/issues/57
