Hi!, first of all, thanks for the amazing theme.
The issue I am facing is related to setting the theme(in any alternative) for the lock screen. I must say after follow the instructions everything worked fine until I left the laptop for a while and it got locked, then I realized theme had not been applied for lock screen(it kept the Pop!_OS default theme in light version).
I think, from a global perspective, this is the only thing missing IMO to be completely usable by anyone.
Here the screenshot

in the above image the text is highlighted but barely visible

~/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk.css is restored after restarting the computer 。。。。

Remove the sudo in this section, since Flatseal can't access sudo flatpak override it will cause the override to be invisble in Flatseal, and removing sudo shouldn't break anything.

can you fix this mono theme issue with chrome?
I know that this issue is due to chrome but can you to try fix it?

(https://github.com/vinceliuice) has mitigated the issue in his whitesur, orchis, jasper themes

Hello again! I strictly followed all the steps about light/dark theme switching, everything was fine, but after a reboot gtk4 applications act weird, not following the scripts (EXAMPLE: Gnome-Software was light when Dark Mode was on, same with nautilus sometimes), everything fine with gtk3 and flatpak apps. Any suggestion? Thank you!

This makes the top bar disappear because of dark text on dark background.

I don't know, this theme might help you to solve this.

It'd be nice if we had an auto update and install script, like the one ElementaryOS Firefox theme has, https://github.com/Zonnev/elementaryos-firefox-theme

So you could put it in autostart and add arguments like --icons --firefox-theme --gtk-theme to install all themes you made.

I put gnome-themes into my .themes folder and it doesn't show up in gnome tweaks :/

Disproportionately small padding near the ends of dash to dock

Description

When there are a lot of apps in the dash to dock (when scrolling is needed), the padding near the ends of it are very small. It might be a good idea to make them proportional everywere.

Can I get the color palette for this theme.
Also what is the font in the readme screenshots ?

Hi! I really like this theme, more than any other I found or been using. Got a couple of issues with it:

1. Selecting bunch of files in Nautilus, is weird, they get this grey almost black accent color to know what is selected and what not, maybe tune down it a little bit?

2. I like it with no line separators but I found out some things are better with them, for example, in Bottles, all the options one after the other with no separation visible is a little messy. I know they got a hover state so the are in focus but I don't know.

3. This is more of a request. I think that toggles look way better if they follow this black, white, grey, acromatic look the theme has overall instead of a blueish color.

If there is anything else I can think of, I'll let you know.

fixed (thanks 😊)

Hey. That's strange, because this post is from September. I am using the newest version of the theme and the problem is still there. I suppose that I had different version installed before - but how to clear the cache or to be sure that I've uninstalled the previous version the right way? Because I recall that I was uninstalling the past version...

Also, I think that I saw more of these gaps, but I cannot tell exactly where now. I will look for it.

Hello,

With Mono light theme there is an issue with KiCAD, where icon and dropdown list use a black background which make icone and drop down list item not visible

When I try to switch to dark mode i have same kind of issue:

Is there a way to know which css property should be changed?

Normally, when dragging an app on the other side of screen for tiling, there is a rectangle as visual indicator. The indicator for this theme is present but it is too transparent to be visible.

I am getting strange black bars above windows running through xwayland since the update to gnome 44.

The same issue is not present on windows running natively on wayland.

The black bars disappear if i switch back to the default gtk4 theme.

Distribution: Manjaro
Gnome version: 44.1

The OSD is in its original position and not as shown in the previews in the top panel integrated. When trying to adjust position and transparency with the extension Better-OSD the position can be adjusted. However, enabling transparency does not fully make the OSD transparent. A white border is left which really disturbs the look.

Edit: I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS with Gnome 42.5

Using the theme on Gnome 44 messes up the Quick Settings as shown.

Is there anything we could do to fix this?

I'm using Mono Dark theme and I noticed there's a visual bug that happens for me only in Nemo (current version is 5.8.4).

When I create a new folder or rename a folder or file, I get this visual bug where the name of said file/folder appears twice, one of them being bigger than the other.

This also only happens on List View. It does not happen on Icon View or Compact View.

I also tried using Thunar and Caja but they're fine, so it seems to only happen in Nemo.

I'd like to begin by extending a heartfelt thank you for crafting such a delightfully simple and modern theme. Your work has undeniably left a positive impression, and I'm truly grateful for that. I've been enjoying it for a few months now, this theme strikes a remarkable balance between simplicity and elegance. Its clean, stylish, and attention-grabbing design is nothing short of remarkable.
I genuinely believe that this theme would make an excellent default choice for GNOME. Its accessibility makes it suitable for all, while its modern design would surely resonate with a wide range of users. On top of that, I've got a couple of ideas for potential improvements that I'd love to share.

• Pop-up buttons

I think the pop-up buttons would look great in red and blue, similar to the colors used in Notepad. I think this would add a bit of extra visual interest and make the buttons stand out more. OBS: By the way, the colors of the buttons have disappeared as you can see in the third image.

• Gnome Software

I think that the Gnome Software app should remain largely unchanged from the default version. This would allow it to retain its clean, modern look and feel.

• Line around the selection

The Fluent theme includes a line that is used to highlight selections in applications. I believe that this is a useful and aesthetically pleasing feature that could be implemented in other themes as well.

Hello @witalihirsch ! I trust you're doing well. I know I haven't been as active lately, but I wanted to take a moment to thank you again for your amazing work on the theme. It's truly a stunning and contemporary overhaul of the standard Adwaita, and I'm genuinely thankful for your effort in bringing it to life. Using it over the past few months has been an absolute pleasure – I'm still smitten. It's given my desktop a whole new lease on life.

Once again, a big hats-off for your dedication! Discovering your theme has been a real gem. And to those reading this, I urge you to give this thread a nudge so that more folks can bask in its brilliance! Linux4ever!

Hello, I report this issue, as explained in top title and shown following, hoping for an early fix, thank you!

the theme is not fitting the new gnome 44 quick settings, soo its just bugged

The contents of the folder are as follows (kind of weird setup due to using NixOS, but that shouldn't affect much)

Most apps continue to work seemingly fine despite this, but GTK4-DING does slightly break (not able to set a background) which is annoying.

After upgrading to GNOME 45, Nautilus seems broken with the background's transparency. All other GTK4 apps work fine.

For example, Easy Effects (which is on GTK4) works fine with no issues.

The e-mail list in Evolution uses light on light text with the dark gtk3 theme and dark on dark with the light gtk3 theme. This makes it extremely difficult read.

MonoTheme version: 0.8
Evolution version: 3.46.1
Gnome version: 43.1

these, at the top right

In would be cool if you port the theme to qt

First, I need to say, this theme is really beautiful. Thanks for your job.
I like to use Terminator as my terminal emulator, but the tabs keep transparent.

How I can fix it?

Manjaro Linux 22.0.0 Sikaris
GNOME Shell 42.5

The dots are too close to the app icons, lower them a bit or increase the size of the dock (but make sure the appicons stay centered).

In some situations highlighted things are not highlighted in the theme. For example in the default PDF-viewer, if you search with Ctrl+F for a certain word, the program shows the page of the word, but doesn't highlight the word itself.
Another example is the shut down menu. With the default system theme I can see that the cancel-button is highlighted (if I press enter I cancel the shut down process). With the Mono-theme I can't see it:

System information:

Hi, I have enjoyed a lot your theme, however since it's not updated at the same pace as new versions of GNOME some things break and I would like to disable it. In the README it states that this can be achieved by:

Uninstalling

To remove a theme, follow all the steps above in reverse order

However, since the theme installation with the provided command replaces the original files in the .config/gtk* directories, I would like to know how to go back to the default theme, since just removing these folders results in a broken theme.

(btw amazing work)

This box in quick-settings
I unfortunately couldn't find exactly what it's named, but I did find this guide about gnome javascript (gjs)

As well as these lines https://github.com/vinceliuice/Qogir-theme/blob/master/src/gnome-shell/theme-44-0/gnome-shell.css#L216

Moreover, i has problem with white text when hovering in the context menu

There is the same error in screenshot-ui and the same error with saving apps-menu

The theme breaks the firefox searchbar making it see though

I use Pop!_OS with version 22.04 LTS. I love the theme and in order to make it better even, I am sharing this issue related to the launcher input font, which get almost invisible in theme dark variant.
On the image you can see the placeholder text is almost not readable.

Hello, first, Thank you for such an amazing theme, it looks just fantastic!

If you interested you can add this theme to the Gradience as a Preset

https://github.com/GradienceTeam/Community#how-to-add

Please, add the full support for gnome 45.

Thanks a lot!

First of all, I'd like to thank you for the amazing theme you've made.

Issue: Nautilus on gnome 43 looks broken. Width is inconsistent around the titlebars and stuff. (Sorry for my poor english.)

In some apps there is a missing background-image. For example if you create a new contact in the default contacs app or if you want to select lists in the default task app.
For example here in the contacts app:
