remove workspace gradient #2372

What happened?

I cannot seem to be able to reset the new workspace gradient to an "unset" state i.e., the default browser theme shows. Neither is there any documentation/help about this feature.

I was just testing this feature out and I want to go back to using my browser's theme (which is provided by the SuperGradient mod).

Reproducible?

Version

1.0.1-a.14

What platform are you seeing the problem on?

Windows

Hey @plutonium-239! I'm here to help you with any bugs, questions, or contributions you have. Let's tackle this issue together!

The workspace gradient feature is likely implemented in the file content/browser/zen-components/ZenGradientGenerator.mjs [1]. Unfortunately, there isn't specific information available about a function or method to reset the workspace gradient to its default state, nor is there documentation on how it interacts with browser themes. You might want to explore the ZenGradientGenerator.mjs file to see if there are any clues or functions that could help revert to the default theme.

Agreed, there should be an easier way to toggle / disable this... should not be necessary to use about:config to set zen.theme.gradient to false.

Some people out there may want to still just use SuperGradient, just because Zen implements similar functionality that should not mean that mods designed for said functionality are made obsolete.
