Bug Description
Binary package hint: human-theme
A toggle button (such as the "QUESTION" button in the Lernid application when a chatroom is active) looks the same whether it is activated or not activated when the mouse is hovering over it. It takes the pressed look while it is being clicked, but then takes the unpressed look as soon as the click is released, until the mouse moves away. In the case I happened upon it, I didn't realize the button was a toggle at first because of this. A related problem is that if a user toggles and untoggles the button repeatedly, until the mouse is moved there is no way to tell it is in the toggled or untoggled state.
An active toggle button with the mouse over it should look different from an untoggled button. Likewise, an untoggled button that is being pressed to toggle it should look different from a toggled button that is being pressed to untoggle it.

Could you post a screenshot of the problem in Lernid?
Does it look different from the toggle button used in nautilus location bar or the search button?
