Use `theme_color` to make notifications more colourful |
||||||
Issue descriptionAll notifications shown by Chrome are currently painted grey (icons, text) because it's quite a neutral color. When the `theme_color` value from a manifest is available, we can use that to make the notification feel a bit more branded still. We'd have to use setColor() on the notification builder (L+), and amend our custom layouts and painting routines everywhere to use the theme color. Since we don't always have access to a manifest, e.g. when showing a notification without a document, it probably makes sense to do this for WebAPKs and sites added to one's homescreen first.

UI review is cool with this: https://groups.google.com/a/google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome-ui-review/5W0tMwghJaI Accessibility is the sticking point. We need to meet contrast ratios for the icon and text (we could possibly not color the text, or not color the icon on dark notifications, etc.) If there are a ton of caveats it might not be worth it but worth at least checking. Keep me posted if you need anything else from UX. Reference bug on theme colors: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=606596

Removing myself and adding chowse@ as notification contact. Might be worth running this by hannahs@ for visual design too if it ends up being another month before implementation.

We'll get to it at some point, but there's still some other higher priority work taking priority at the moment. |
