Happy Default Grey Year

[mymike]

Yes, IMO Icons and Buttons needs by default color set to Theme.palette.normal.backgroundSecondaryText, that's the color I use for them in my apps...

It would be great if we can promote the color palette as @mymike suggests, so that it's easily adopted by app builders. That would give our apps increased cohesion.

Good night, I like the dark windows, I show you some details of how Ubuntu MATE has those buttons, I think they are nice ,
it's possible you'll see another point of seeing it.

If you try to change the color #b2b2b2b2 to another gray #8a8885, it looks better having the letters in white,

greetings...

Looks like we kind of agree that the default palette for neutral buttons is not right therefore next step should be changing the palette.

@mymike I think we should use the foreground color for the background button color and redefine the colors. I think using other palette terms (as backgrounSecondaaryText) will be more confusing than it is today

@3arn0wl there's only the information on the old Ubuntu... I try to come to UBports little by little but you can read about it for now here

Thanks @Josele13

mhmm is the background of a button background or foreground, since the text on it is also foreground...? Thats an interesting question...

[CiberSheep]

@hummlbach it' confusing until you read the whole description (follow the link)

@cibersheep ha, cool! but somehow that doesn't make me happy completely... I I would have expected buttons to "be raised"... Why should the thumb toggles of switches be raised but buttons not?

Thanks for the link @cibersheep.

(I'm going to say it: I've never liked that red!! For me, it has associations with the fake tomato ketchup we used to have in East Africa. Ugh!)

@hummlbach
@3arn0wl Fake tomato ketchup? What are you talking about? Only real tomato here, maybe real tomato sauce with onion... but fake tomato? Where's the banning button in the forum?
