Ubuntu Dock branch - on reboot, it does not keep the dark theme

Open D3vil0p3r opened this issue 3 months ago • 6 comments

I am using the Ubuntu Dock branch, and I use GNOME 48.5 Xorg with Dark theme. When I reboot the system, the dock keeps the light theme: Image

To force the dark theme, I need to restart gnome-shell by ALT+F2, press R and press Enter (I am using Xorg). Image

@micheleg can you please fix this annoying bug?

I am using the version 102 (latest commit). The current settings applied on this extension are:

apply-custom-theme=false
autohide-in-fullscreen=false
background-opacity=0.90000000000000002
dash-max-icon-size=48
dock-position='BOTTOM'
height-fraction=0.90000000000000002
intellihide=true
intellihide-mode='MAXIMIZED_WINDOWS'
multi-monitor=true
preferred-monitor=-2
preferred-monitor-by-connector='Virtual-1'
preview-size-scale=0.20000000000000001
require-pressure-to-show=false
show-trash=false
transparency-mode='FIXED'

Are you using a shell custom theme? If so, does it happen without?

Ciao Marco. If I apply Adwaita (default) on my GNOME Shell, it gets only this, even if I logout and login:

But when I use any different custom dark themes, like for example:

  • https://github.com/Fausto-Korpsvart/Tokyonight-GTK-Theme (and all other GTK Themes related)
  • https://github.com/vinceliuice/Graphite-gtk-theme (from a different developer)

when I apply them is ok, but when I logout and login, the Ubuntu Dock turns light theme, despite the all the custom themes I tested I installed only the dark ones. The other gnome shell components remain dark, only the Ubuntu Dock turns light.

You may need to fix this in these themes I think.

I will try to contact them. Do you know what could be the gnome-shell/gtk property that manages dark and light theme of a component like Ubuntu Dock?
