marked object not red/green

Post by Master X »

When marking a item in the sidebar, you cannot determin, if it is blocked, whitelistet or normal. Marked items will always be white with blue background (Windows XP, standard theme). You have to deselect the element, to find out, if it is blocked/whitelisted or not.

Normally I would say: invert the colours and the problem is solved. But when you invert whitelisted, you get red, and when you invert blocked, you get green. So this is no solution. So other colours should be found for marked and blocked/whitelisted items.
In worst case, it could be let, like it is now, since it is only one click and the item is deselected; then you can see its status.

Is this image blocked or not?

Is this gif whitelisted or not?

(should work with most filters, if not: add filter "*/RealMedia/ads/*" and "@@wikipedia.org" for example)

Yes, I am not changing colors of selected items because doing so might result in unreadable text depending on your theme. The state column solves the immediate problem...
