** Description changed: The background of the Dash, Launcher, NotifyOSD, etc.. is tinted with the average background colour of the wallpaper. In cases where this average colour is either very light or very dark it should be respectively darkened or lightened to improve readability. Inside the 'too dark/light' thresholds, the level of adjustment needs to be on a sliding scale so that a very very dark background is lightened more than a background that is just a bit too dark. Average background colours that do not fall inside the 'too dark/light' thresholds should not be modified. + + There is an additional issue in that the implementation does not match + the design in terms of both the saturation of the tint and the radius of + the blur. Both of these issues also significantly impact readability. + + --------------------------------------------------- + + Desired resolution: + + There are two parts to this fix: + + 1. adjust the tint colour inside the 'too dark/light' thresholds. + + 2. bring implementation in to line with the designs + - Compare "dash_design.png" with "dash_implementation.png" (files attached to this bug) + - Note that both of these screenshots use the same wallpaper, and therefor the dash tint should be the same in both. + - Note that in "dash_design.png" the text in the dash on top of the white area in the window behind the dash is legible, while in "dash_implementation.png" it is not. + - Increase the tint saturation in the implementation to match the design. + - Increase the radius of the dash blur to match the design. + + It would be much appreciated if screenshots of the proposed fixes could + be sent to Otto for review and iteration *before* they are committed.
