Hi there,
I wonder if the status of the locking icons ( see screenshot) can be styled differently.
I find it very difficult to see whether they are active or not. Some colored background ( maybe green) might be helpful.

Gimp 2.10.2 dark theme, symbolic icons.
Thanks for any help

The simple answer is Yes:

It's defined by an icon called gimp-transparency, but obviously if you change it, it will also change wherever else it's used (which seems to include the
Add Alpha Channelmenu item)

Thank you Kevin, I'll give it a try.
The problem is that using the dark interface, which I find really appealing, it is very hard to see the difference between activated and non-activated.
Sorry, I've misunderstood.
I think it should be possible to highlight the active icons, but it's going to mean much more digging into the theme.
So far I've identified that they are buttons and by changing the icon gimp-button-pressed the selected options are highlighted:

Obviously this has a bad side-effect
, so I need to find how to select only those layer lock buttons.
It can be done without side-effects:

BUT - you will need to copy the theme to your personal Themes folder and re-name it.
Then you will need to edit the gtkrc file in the copied theme to add the following to the end of the file:
Code:
style "highlight-layer-locks" = "gimp-gtkbutton-style"
{
engine "pixmap"
{
image
{
function = BOX
state = ACTIVE
file = "ui/gimp-button-pressed-lock.png"
border = { 8, 8, 8, 8 }
stretch = TRUE
}
}
}
widget "*Tree*Button*" style "highlight-layer-locks"
You then need to create a new gimp-button-pressed-lock.png image in the ui folder of your copied theme (copy the gimp-button-pressed.png and modify in a way that suits you)
However, I think you'd be better raising an Issue with the developers:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/issues as it is obviously not fit for purpose at present.
That really works like a charm, Kevin.
Thank you so very much.
PS.:
no chance to give them a bug-report. Can't register there because of that stupid capcha.
Clicked about 12 or more pictures ... but only get another one, no registration. Fed up of that now.
