[UIFe] Headerbar buttons that are highlighted/coloured in Adwaita are not coloured at all in Ambiance.

[Sebastien Bacher]

Using Ambiance on artful, the "action buttons" used in GtkHeaderBar are using a color similar to bar background which makes them not stand out. One example is the file-roller extract dialog, when using Adwaita the "extract" button is blue which make it an obvious click target, that's not the case under our themes

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

I'm not sure the colouring of some headerbar buttons in some windows is a good design choice by upstream. In the example in the bug description, the (blue in Adwaita) Extract button is no more important than the non-blue Extract button in the dialog that came before it.

So yeah it's a theme bug that Ambiance is missing this highlighting but also not really a noticeable problem unless you're familiar with other themes.

The problem is that if you are not familiar with GNOME applications putting button in their titlebar it might be a bit difficult to find those

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Yes, I would argue many things are non-obvious and difficult to discover in Gnome. But Unity had some similar problems...

Good news though - We can fix this bug by changing the colour to Ubuntu-style, avoid the garish blue/red colours, and choose something else. Everyone could be satisfied with a well-chosen colour.

Please find attach one of those actions, see the top green button.

This is fine from a docs POV. Unfortunately we don't ship any Ubuntu specific screenshots in the 17.10 desktop guide.

I think this caused this regression Bug #1720570.
