Before submitting

• Ensure that the issue is present with the latest Arc-theme release, or latest git snapshot.
• Test whether the issue also appears with default themes (e.g. Adwaita for GTK and GNOME).
• Make sure you have built the correct theme versions for GTK 3, GNOME Shell and Cinnamon themes.
• Make sure the issue persists between restarts.
• For GTK 3 related issues, try clearing your user's ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css, if it exists.

Details

Please add the following information:

• Distribution and version. - Arch 5.17.1
• Versions for the affected applications/desktops/toolkits. Gnome 42
• Installation method (package or compiled manually). AUR
• Arc-theme version. master

Unless this is a non-visual issue, always add screenshots to help describe your problem.

This seems to happen with Arc-Dark variant, where there is no separate dark theme available. Apparently with the new dark style preference, Adwaita-Dark is used instead of falling back to using the "regular" Arc-Dark, which was the old behavior when applications requested dark theme.

Fix will be pushed shortly.

BTW why some applications - like the control panel in the background on the screenshot - don't use Arc theme now? Is this something that is missing in Arc (gtk4?) or maybe there was some change in GNOME and some windows are not-theme-able now? This also happens for "Extensions" application, calculator, but works fine for a lot of others (like gedit, gnome tweaks, ...).

Hi, is it possible to release a new build incorporating this fix?

[jnsh]

@jhanschoo I should have some time to get back at Arc-theme again next week, and I'll look at fixing some pending things, and then will likely roll out a new release.

Thanks!

@jnsh I'm not familiar with the package release procedure for Ubuntu, but is it possible to release 20221218-1 for the current Ubuntu distribution (22.10)?

I see that this release exists only for 23.04, which is not released yet.

@evenfrost I'm not responsible for distribution packages. I don't think ubuntu backports packages for the theme, but you could try opening a bug report for them.

I think newer .deb packages from other ubuntu versions or debian based distributions could work though, except for gnome-shell and cinnamon themes could have issues if the versions aren't matching with the ones shipped on your distribution.

If nothing else works, you can always build the theme yourself.
