Re: More visible already started/active application in Launcher (for TV/tablets/phones)

 

Diming the icons shouldn't be a big issue if done in a similar fashion as what is implemented now when you open the dash.

When you mouse over the launcher they all light up again.

    I think grayscale suits very well with the mono-icons ... I think
    golden would be jam-packed and outshined, don't you?

      I don't think that a grey launcher is very good. It gives the idea
      of a frozen app. Maybe something as golden icons on open
      applications could be better...
