Element Adjustments adjust granular colors #456

brhubbar commented 3 years ago

I would like my active selection on the activity bar to be more distinct. I can do this by darkening the activityBar.activeBackground relative to activityBar.Background. However, Peacock won't do this automatically, nor does it save the modification I make.

Current Behavior:

Desired Behavior:

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to be able to control this for sub elements of the activityBar, statusBar, and titleBar, in the already existing manner - something like:

Thank you @brhubbar for creating this issue!

this reminds me of #448 but its interesting that what you have tried isn't working

I'm not sure if I should file a separate request for this, but I would also like to have more granular control of the Accent Borders. In particular I would like to have the sash.hoverBorder affected but not panel.border and sideBar.border (because they draw too much attention to them selves, and conflict with gutter elements like git status markers) Edit: filed separate issue #472

Yes please file a separate issue
