Hi,

I hope you are doing fine. I tried my hand at making my own version, and I'm very happy with it, but I found a couple of things I need help. First is that the color (pointed in blue in the attached screenshot) is not one of the colors I choose in the "colors" file, also attached. I would like to tone it down.

Also I couldn't found a way to make the title bar of the window that has the focus lighter than the one that does not has the focus. And it seems that it doesn't know it's a "dark" theme, is there a way to let cinnamon know?

Thank you for doing all this, best regards.

This is a long time later. I hope you're not waiting patiently for an answer to this post. :) But for others... That darker part is often colored by the following, found in /gtk-3.20/gtk.css .background { background-color: #FFFFFF; }' In Cinnamox Heather, it changes more inactive parts of windows or objects, where there's typically not a lot of user interaction. Usually not the main BG of a window (some exceptions).

Search gtk.css w/ a text editor to find that rule. There could be other selector names that also use the same color. Make a note of the orig. color (use a color picker) & put in a highly visible color to see what all it changes.
