Hi,

So I just installed a few themes and whenever a windows is maximized, the fonts in the top bar suddenly all have shadows around and there is a cast shadow from the bar over the maximized windows, as shown in the attached pic.
How do I remove all of these shadows?

This is when there is no window which is maximized:

Thanks in advance!

Are the themes that were installed 3.26 compatible? New versions of Gnome sometimes break 3rd party themes.

Indeed compatible, at least as stated by the uploader.

Post a link and I see if I get the same result.

There you go:

I have the latest version (1.5) in which the creator clearly states:
"* Remove shadows behind icons/text in the top panel (in GNOME 3.26)"

I see the same problem every time the title bar gets near the panel. Being a 3rd party theme you'll have to login to Gnome Look and notify the developer.

Yeah, I realized it yesterday. Thanks!
