hi @TheLiux thanks for you PR

I am not sure about this one honestly

Testing this in this branch https://github.com/ubuntu/yaru_widgets.dart/tree/test_no_splash
in yaru widgets

@Jupi007 @madsrh @d-loose @elioqoshi please test this as well when you have time
I kinda really like the ripple effect but I am not alone

[Jupi007]

Honestly, I have mixed feelings. 🤔
I like this effect too.
But after test the yaru_widgets branch, I agree that it feels more native and less "mobile".

[TheLiux]

I think that without ripple the effect is less material-like and more yaru-like.

If someone want the ripple and someone no, maybe a more effective approach would be to implement a bool that enables or disables the ripple effect, allowing users to choose whether they want it or not.

The idea is good, but it would be useless because you can already use copyWith to change that kind of thing 🙂

Yeah, that's fair, i didn't think that 😄

Sorry I am late here as I was out of office.

First of all, thanks for the contribution @TheLiux !
While we want to unify Canonical Design, Ubuntu is in a bit of a special place and Ubuntu Desktop has some other requirements than some other highly technical enterprise Canonical products. My take on that is that Yaru should look and feel like GTK4, with Ubuntu brand elements on top. I have no strong opinion on the ripple effect (apart that it is a bit sluggish on lower end hardware) but in order to remove something, I'd like us to have a good story or argument why that would be the right thing, otherwise we could act prematurely.

Hi @elioqoshi !

Honestly, like I mentioned earlier, the ripple effect in this reminds me a lot of Material Design. If someone uses a Flutter app and compares it to a GTK app, they're bound to see some differences. Even though this package is built on top of the Flutter Material Library, I think the main aim here should be to make it look less like Material and more like Yaru.

So, I understand that there will always be some differences between native apps and Flutter apps. But if you come across a noticeable difference, why not eliminate it to maintain a native feel?

[elioqoshi]

I agree with that thinking @TheLiux. We should have a conversation exactly like that and go from there with an implementation once we found a consensus. @Jupi007 @Feichtmeier can you remind me what's the reasoning behind having the ripple effect? If it's not in GTK I can understand the thinking that we might want to reevaluate that. What do you think?

[Jupi007]

@elioqoshi material design comes from mobile, so the ink ripple can be considered as a tactile tap response.
Honestly, even if I like this effect, I agree that remove it enforce the native feeling.

[Feichtmeier]

How about we'd keep it if yaru.dart is used in a mobile device? In common_themes there is a flag for this

[elioqoshi]

@Feichtmeier That seems reasonable to me.

[Jupi007]

@Feichtmeier this is a good idea 👍
