Could an option just be added to CCSM to turn off the chameleonic feature of Dash? As cool as it changing colour to match the background image is, not everyone wants their, say, green background to force them to have a green launcher and Dash.
The best way to please everyone is to offer the choice, so that there is an option in CCSM to make the Dash and Launcher one colour again, black like it was in Natty. This would solve all usability issues in this bug. It could even go one step further, allow the user to choose the colour manually in CCSM! Imagine, a mostly black wallpaper with a bit of green in it and the user could make the Dash and Launcher green as well, despite it not being the majority colour of the wallpaper. I know when using the monochrome photo of buildings thats in the default wallpaper selection the Dash becomes annoyingly white. I'd love to have that back to black as it was in Natty when using such backgrounds. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/837993 Title: Where the average background colour is either very light or dark, adjust this value to darken/lighten in order to preserve readability To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/837993/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
