Active Menu background

4 years 8 months ago
#86732
Hi I would like to set the background of the active/selected left menu, to be the same as the menu items background. So that we get a better feel of which menu tab is selected/active. Right now it's a bit confusing having it in the opposite way.

Thank you

Good example of this condition in the tabbed menu with the blue menu background. Perhaps could evolve into a larger question of adding appearance controls to the menu headers along with an option to adopt the menu color. (Initial thought being that menu headers defaulting to the menu color could be less desirable on standard and accordion menus.)

Thanks for the suggestion!

This seems a bit of a stretch - the FreeToastHost active and inactive buttons and tabs all use a grey / blue theme.
Making the optional menu background the same blue as the tab is a bit like using a black font on a black background.  The easy solution is to change the user defined back color to something that doesn't conflict with the menu tabs

Yes 100% agree, it can become a customized item in the admin console...

Not at all, having it not the same background color give the impression the menu header is not the selected one as the menu items that are showing up. 

Once we have the menu header background same as the menu items background we know it's the one selected. That's how i see it though.
