| Description |
|
We've consolidated and partially redefined the colors for Magnolia 5. While the base colors remain the same, every base color now gains 6 additional shades. The new color definitions can be found on the main page of the style guide:
The mapping to convert from old to new colors is here: We will need some fine-tuning of some screens, but we're sure it works and will not only improve the look of all existing UIs, but also give us a lot more flexibility by offering more shades to e.g. make the lines around a form field stronger or less so, depending on what we want to achieve. That allows us to emphasize or de-emphasize some elements and lines. It also will make it easier to provide a slightly different appearance with significant higher contrast to users on-demand. It also fixes issues we've encountered (e.g. the piggy-colored light red shades) whenever we introduced new elements such as the alerts and notifications recently. We should implement this as soon as possible so that we can fine-tune the results in all major interface parts. |

some mappings have been changed twice, resulting in wrong colors |

I realized that i messed up my stage1 commit because some colors got mapped a few times as i went down the list of color changes. There could be a few small problems here and there. But the bulk is correct. Other problems can be fixed as they are found. I thought it was important to get this on master so that other people makiing changes with colors would not get clobbered later. |
