First, that is bad design from the Gnome designers, not the Ubuntu designers. If I was designing that window, I would -- and did -- put Back, Forward, and Home buttons in the toolbar, not just a search field. <https://live.gnome.org/SystemSettings?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=sketches-p1.jpg> Second, it's nothing whatsoever to do with the toolbar being dark. System Settings has exactly the same problem in themes where the toolbar is light. - -- mpt -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk42sgsACgkQ6PUxNfU6ecqQ5ACggRlX7IVr6orTqjxZcSJ3Oegx Z3UAoJGzsNFjrEG4q7OPqNbdS5FOgRhj =svLJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
