--- Comment #45 from Manuel Geißer <geisse...@gmail.com> --- (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #44) > The merge request will be merged once there is a highlight effect to replace > the darkening effect.

It is already pretty clear which window is in focus by the change in size and the mouse cursor. The darkening, however, is a considerable annoyance to many users, for reasons outlined by Szczepan Hołyszewski and others in great detail. The issue of darkened windows being too hard to distinguish is way more problematic than the highlighting issue; you really cannot set both on the same level. User resonance on this bug should have made it pretty clear after all. > All the talk in the world won't change that, sorry. We don't merge half-baked > work on purpose. Please, rethink this statement. Please see the view that the half-baked work is the darkening effect itself, not its removal. I would like to repeat the following: > I see you don't want to have it enabled by default, but what about merging it > as optional and deactivated by default as a compromise? This way, users could decide on their own what they prioritise. We do not want to wait for another year unitl someone manages to implement the outline. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
