Improve Alt+Tab Focus (window switching) on Matcha-dark themes #127

Open Porrumentzio opened 4 years ago

Porrumentzio commented 4 years ago

Using Matcha-dark themes on Manjaro MATE, Alt+Tab (windows selection) utility is quite un-intuitive, as it is badly indicated which window is the user choosing.

irudia Actual view, low-contrast colors, matcha-dark-sea.

This would be improved changing the color of the selected window to a lighter one and/or showing a thumbnail/previsualization of the window selected (before releasing Alt+Tab and going to that window)

irudia Proposal for a higher-contrast colors.

This question is a bit difficult to me, because I haven't found the code to control this part

Porrumentzio commented 4 years ago

Maybe it's managed by the OS, instead of by the theme?

vinceliuice commented 4 years ago

I'll check the source code of Mate desktop project, maybe I can find it there

I'm having the same issue on a fresh install :)

Porrumentzio commented 4 years ago

Manjaro MATE? Or other system/GE?

kbsali commented 4 years ago

Sorry, Manjaro MATE yes (it is the theme that comes by default)

It is working with the BlueMenta, Menta, TraditionalOk default MATE themes (https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-themes): blue_menta

Also with the new Yaru MATE theme(https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru/tree/hirsute/mate):

yaru

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with theme designing so I can't help but maybe you can examine how they solved this.

should be fixed with https://github.com/vinceliuice/Matcha-gtk-theme/pull/200
