| Description |
|
We've found in the review that the dark gray selection color doesn't work very well, as it isn't visible enough. We should find a different way to mark the currently selected element on a page being edited. |

This is not such an easy problem, as I've found that simply picking another color results in too many colors used by the editor - as a matter of fact, a "blue variant" I've created illustrates this very well. This worked well with dark gray, since it's basically a non-color and doesn't add much to a colorful appearance. I've found a different solution, which even reduces the amount of different colors used, but it has to be properly discussed. I've thus assigned this to the Cleanup version as it is unlikely that we'll realize it for the Developer Preview release. |

I'm currently working with the designers on a fine-tuned variant. I'll be able to review it with soon. |

We've reviewed the changes for the page editor in Alpha 1. I do have the necessary color definitions and will document them soon in the UX wiki space. Will post them here as well - please nudge me if you need them earlier than I plan to deliver them |
