Incorrect hint text and cursor color in overview search box
Thanks for your work~ Just a small visual bug report: The cursor and hint text in the overview search box seem to be of the wrong color.
Fluent shell theme:
Default shell theme:
Seems to me that the color of the default theme is more legible and thus "correct". I think I know where it's going wrong and can pull up a quick PR.
Wallpapers install script problem
Hi. The install script must be run with root rights. However, the backgrounds pictures folder is then created with root rights as well. Therefore in gnome-control-center, the pictures are not available. With root privileges I had to change the folders (fluent, fluent-building and fluent-mountain) properties to user rights to get the wallpapers available. Maybe at the end of the script, you should add some code to change these folders properties.
Thanks!
Fluent theme breaks on gnome shell 43 action center
I was using fluent theme on my Fedora 36 with gnome 42 and set the shell theme to fluent. Then, I updated to fedora 37 beta with gnome 43 and fluent theme is not properly working on shell. Please see the screen shot below.
Round + solid = transparent background in the Gnome Shell menus for the Dark variant
Thank you for this theme, probably its Compact version is the sleekest GTK+ theme so far!
When using
--tweaks round solid noborderthe dark variant results in a transparent background for the menus in Gnome shell.Also, some minor issues that may need some tweaking:
--tweaks solidthe topbar has the same color as the active app topbar/headerbar when using the dark variant, what looks very weird when a window "touches" the topbar (please see first screenshot below)Screenshots taken on a VM running Debian Unstable/Gnome 41.1

Blur not working
The Blur version doesnt seem to be working. My installation command:
Output of that:
Blur Me is installed. I enabled the theme using the User Themes extension. Result:
Notification event time is out of design
Theme is awesome and I use it as default in Ubuntu 21.10 (GNOME 40), but notification's event time is out of design:
I guess it should be smaller (~0.75em), slightly higher and not such bright. And (probably) right adjusted. ;)
Inconsistent GTK and KDE title bars
All your other themes that I have used are consistent between Gtk and KDE but this one is not
Could you fix this? I personally prefer the KDE titlebar style
Unify the shadow depth of different apps' windows
Hi.
Terminal
Visual Studio Code

Chinese Input Candidate Box - Content Misaligned
Thank you for the beautiful themes! Have been using your Tela and Qogir themes for over 2 years now. This Fluent theme is another solid one and I am enjoying it so far!
I just want to report a slight glitch I noticed:
In the candidate box of the default Chinese IME, the candidates are not aligned at the center but to the top. Could you take a look at it? Thank you very much!
Installation is not system wide(not for all packages) even if I use sudo
So I am using latest non LTS Minimal version of Manjaro Gnome and after a normal installation of this theme everything look as it is supposed to look but after some time I notices that some default application have weird looks. I searched google and found I have to install theme at qt or whatever....I cant understand properly. So I need help to solve this issue.
Firefox 108 widget layout issues
The address bar and some of the icons/buttons in the bars have weird offsets since Firefox 108. Apparently some padding/margings have changed. See screenshot.
Use Multiple Dashes when Multiple Instances are Open
I am using the theme with Dash To Dock, the pill shaped app indicators are very pretty but i noticed there is always only one, no matter how many instances you have opened
could you make it so the pills match the number of instances ?
FLUENT
DASHES - DASH TO DOCK
this is the "dashes" preset for dash to dock, it's not as pretty because the corners are straight and not curved and the dashes don't get bigger if the window is active like in Fluent, but i still prefer it because i can tell how many instances i have.
Also the fluent pills are too close from the icons IMO, it looks like the brave logo has grown a mustache on it's chin, i prefer how dashes are more centered
Nautilus location bar not visible when focused/hovered
As shown above, Fluent currently does not display the Nautilus location bar (GNOME 43 and GTK 4) correctly when focused (ie trying to type in a new location). I was trying to get to the .config folder from the home folder on Nautilus by typing this into the location bar.
I am using Fluent-compact from the github repo.
What settings can I use to theme this correctly?
Nautilus/Gnome File Chooser Selected Item
When opening the nautilus/gnome file chooser, the selected item will be highlighted with a color that makes difficult to distinguish it. See screenshot below:
