Certain theme colors are inconsistent/don't exist across devices (divider colors specifically)

[ryanabx]

I noticed while working on https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-applets/pull/317 that the dividers don't have a noticeable color on my amd laptop

This is my device with an intel i5 8250u:

This is my device with an amd r9 6900hs and an amd radeon rx 6700s dGPU:

I did notice that the dividers disappeared at one point for me, but wasn't sure if it was intended (AMD graphics; and very old Intel graphics on a different system (might be software rendering for the latter)).

I can reproduce this on 2 AMD machines.

Cosmic-comp iirc doesn't support software rendering yet

That system doesn't support Vulkan or OpenGL 3, and I'm not sure if OpenGL 2 is supported by cosmic-comp (cosmic-term uses tiny-skia on that system), but idk. Not that it matters much on such an old system.

Cosmic-comp can use OpenGL ES 2.0, if it has to.

I have some old screenshots from February showing that the colors were correct back then

Perhaps related: pop-up outlines do not render correctly on some GPUs.

[ryanabx]

Looks like the colors are present, they just match the background color (in the photo, you can make out the border around the images in the multi-window pop-up)

Given that this is GPU dependent, I suppose it's supposed to be rendering a different color, and the color is probably correct in-code?

[git-f0x]

I don't believe this was the case before, but the dividers are now visible for me on Light theme in applets and Store.

[ryanabx]

That's not the case for me, but I'll see if it is after building for today.

We had a bug with theme derivation causing dividers to take on the background color. That is fixed but you must change the theme in an up to date settings app before it will take effect.

[git-f0x]

Oh, now that I changed "Application or window background" in Dark theme it seems the dividers are fully fixed on my end. And now I see that every 3rd and 6th window in the multiple window popup slightly clips outside the border (don't know beyond 6 since overflow isn't implemented). But not related to this issue.

The colors are fixed for me too! Closing this issue
