OK thanks for all the help folks but after looking at all the css files in the desktop theme folder I'll just drop it as my browser and other dark themed programs are not effected by this problem .... and I wasn't in Zorin until a few days ago it's no big deal ...
I appreciate everyone's help ....
Save the following in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
.view:hover, iconview:hover, .view:hover:focus, iconview:hover:focus, .view text:hover, iconview text:hover, textview text:hover, iconview text:hover:focus, textview text:hover:focus, flowbox flowboxchild:hover, row:hover, .view:selected, iconview:selected, .view:selected:focus, iconview:selected:focus, .view text:selected, iconview text:selected, textview text:selected, iconview text:selected:focus, textview text:selected:focus, .view text selection:focus, iconview text selection:focus, .view text selection, iconview text selection, textview text selection:focus, textview text selection, flowbox flowboxchild:selected, entry selection, entry selection:focus, row:selected {
background-color: rgba(0, 170, 255, 0.5);
}
Change the rgba value to anything you desire. That is a Blue Color I have put there.
Log out and in to see the change.
Did you kill the browser and relaunch it?
I shut off my laptop and restarted it ..... should I have just shut down my browser?????
Well, you could have... but rebooting is just as good.
Which browser are you using and how did you install it? That gtk.css file is located in /home/$USER/.config/gtk-3.0, right?
And Azenis2021... I updated this yesterday:
Please run
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Your Vivaldi is using default colors instead of System colors.
vivaldi://experiments in a new tab in Vivaldi.Download this file and then Extract it to your ~/.themes directory:
It should look like "/home/FROGs$USER/.themes/vivaldi-azenis-theme"
Now close Vivaldi and then relaunch it.
Navigate to ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css and comment out what is in the gtk.css (using the /*commented text goes here*/ tags) or remove it entirely.
Sorry but I can't find "Custom UI Modifications in my Appearance setttings .... I have a Menu Customization but no Select Folder option .....
It seems, after enabling
vivaldi://experiments in a new tab in Vivaldi.Close and relaunch Vivaldi to make the option appear.
It didn't work still has black background when I try to copy and past any text on the posts ..... here is what I ended up with .....
Going to try and log out and back in ....
Interesting when I click on the Themes Setting in Systems Settings it doesn't open all the others work though .... and still no go with the copy and paste ..... I can copy and past I just can't see what I'm coping .....
OK I went back to the
And deleted what we added .... now my Theme Setting is back ....
Did you run
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
?
The first time yes but I'll do it again ....

This is odd. I am running all the same themes as you are and I installed Vivaldi to test and it is working fine...
Open Software & Updates and remove the Bad Repository for mark-pcnetspec/conky-manager-pm9/ubuntu
and run
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
The system will not run the upgrades until your Sources.list is clean.
If you ever see a Bad Repo in your update- always go in and remove it.
If you want, the good repo for Conky Manager is:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tomtomtom/conky-manager
mike@mike-ROG-Strix-G731GT-G731GT:~$ Software & Updates
[1] 8795

What?
No, Frog!
You comment out the css with tags: /* this opens and this> closes*/
It would look like this:
/*.view:hover, iconview:hover, .view:hover:focus, iconview:hover:focus, .view text:hover, iconview text:hover, textview text:hover, iconview text:hover:focus, textview text:hover:focus, flowbox flowboxchild:hover, row:hover, .view:selected, iconview:selected, .view:selected:focus, iconview:selected:focus, .view text:selected, iconview text:selected, textview text:selected, iconview text:selected:focus, textview text:selected:focus, .view text selection:focus, iconview text selection:focus, .view text selection, iconview text selection, textview text selection:focus, textview text selection, flowbox flowboxchild:selected, entry selection, entry selection:focus, row:selected {
background-color: rgba(0, 170, 255, 0.5);
}*/
If launching from terminal...
software-properties-gtk
Then navigate to the "other software" tab.
OK just updated and upgraded .... so going to check out the problem with the copy feature .....
It worked I now have a nice blue back ground when I copy something on the board ....
Thank you sir .... I hope I didn't cause you to much anguish .... I absolutely know nothing about the inner workings of coding or the terminal and I have to learn as I go along .... not making excuses just the way it is ....
