| Fixed issue with Software Center
Apr 18 2014 on content Ambiance Dark |
I realized the latest version of the Ubuntu Software Center had an issue with dark themes, when searching it had light text on light background, this couldn't be fixed from the theme directly, so I edited the Software Center's css file, and included it in the theme, just use the install script and it will automatically copy it to the appropriate location. |

Just to give everyone a heads up, I just upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04, and do to the major changes (once again) to the Ambiance theme, I'm going to be updating it, the update should be up within the next couple days, in the mean time if you upgrade I recommend sticking with the default Ambiance theme until I finish it. |

Well I was at it I decided to lighten the text of desktop items, as this was something that's been bugging me, I lightened it in a previous version, but have to basically redo the entire theme with each Ubuntu version, and forgot to lighten the text again on the latest version. |

I decided to take a quick look at the theme files, and was able to find pretty quickly where to change the color for the scrollbar, I decided to make it look similar to the overlay scrollbar, I made it thinner and orange, but not too thin so you can still click on it easily.
I experimented with different colors, trying to just lighten it up a bit, but this seemed to look the best.
The important thing is you can actually SEE the scrollbar now ;) |

In case you use the "Stylish" addon, here is a direct link to a gtk search:

Firefox doesn't play nice with any dark GTK theme, it's the stupid gradient that's the culprit, what I do to fix it is either use stylish (a firefox plugin) to force firefox to follow the GTK theme, or simply just install the GTK+ theme for firefox (located here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gtk-native/), that is what I did and it works great, for Thunderbird I used stylish, and there's a stylish style that someone made for GTK, if you try it out just search for GTK styles.
As for Calc, I don't use that program, so couldn't say for sure, are you on Gnome Shell? I assume so because you say Adwaita is the default theme, try switching to the standard Ambiance theme and see Calc is messed up with that also, because my theme is just a mod of Ambiance.

Sorry for the late reply, as soon as I got you message I uploaded to Github, and then completely forgot to post it here,it was like 3AM, so yeah ;)
Anyways, I created a Github repo here: https://github.com/tgaurnier/Ambiance-Dark/
Just click on the "branch" dropdown menu and select whatever version you want, the versions are labeled by Ubuntu version rather than theme version. |

That explains it, the latest theme is made from Ubuntu 13.10, with every version of Ubuntu I redo the theme (if it gets broken, which it usually does), you should be able to download an earlier version of the theme. I think I started with 11.10 if I remember correctly. |
