home-sweet-gnome / dash-to-panel

An icon taskbar for the Gnome Shell. This extension moves the dash into the gnome main panel so that the application launchers and system tray are combined into a single panel, similar to that found in KDE Plasma and Windows 7+. A separate dock is no longer needed for easy access to running and favorited applications.

Gray background at every taskbar icon #2118

Closed AlcatrAAz closed 1 month ago

Hello all,

I have a strange problem that every Icon in my task bar has an additional half transparent background. So I have the "normal" background when hover or a program is focused and then an additional background for the icons. This problem is only at the program icons and maybe the "show apps". Time and Power, Ethernet sound is okay.

I already tried changing the values in the stylesheet.css of dash-to-panel. Additional I added sections from the stylesheet.css from /usr/share/.. that sounded plausible and changed the backgroundcolors.

How can I remove these icon backgrounds?

Thanks in advance!

Sorry seems duplicated and fixed in master. I edit the stylesheet.css to get the fix.

One question: What is the CSS code to change the background color of the focused application? I can find hover and clicked but not the CSS part for the application that is focused.

Sure!

Open file explorer (Nautilus) Press Control + h to show hidden files Go to something like this: ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/dash-to-panel@jderose9.github.com/ Open stylesheet.css in Text editor Add the following line like here https://github.com/home-sweet-gnome/dash-to-panel/commit/632d3bdcfcb3a49439aed6b0544bb93259d86777 Save file Log out or restart

If someone has the the answer for this, would be really appreciated. "What is the CSS code to change the background color of the focused application? I can find hover and clicked but not the CSS part for the application that is focused."

@AlcatrAAz

I don't know about the CSS, but you could change it easily, just using the nice GUI:

Dash to Panel Settings > Style tab > Running indicator style (Focused app) > click on the cog icon (⚙) > Highlight focused application: on > Highlight opacity: your value (0-100)... (see screenshots below)

Still having an issue with the ShowsApps in the bottom-left corner. This little background square on hover. I still get that after applying the https://github.com/home-sweet-gnome/dash-to-panel/commit/632d3bdcfcb3a49439aed6b0544bb93259d86777 fix. That's just a very small annoyance. A small trace remaining, after eliminating the bug...
