I can't seem to decouple the main menu and draw background colors in the appearance interface.

No matter what i set the draw background color to, it will take the color of the main menu background.

I've tried the usual cache-clearing, long walks, stronger coffee. . .nothing's working.

Thanks

I can confirm this

Probably a mistake in colors.css, needs to be fixed.

I'm adding this here even though it may warrant a separate issue :

The standard buttons (non-Commerce ones) inherit header gradient colours (although top and bottom are reversed) and setting button top, bottom or text colour has no effect. This creates an issue when header is set with no gradient e.g. all white as then buttons are also all white and only text is visible.

(applies to RC as well as dev)

General color issues all round! LOL, well, I will need to check through all the colors in the default scheme, I may have duplicated some colors or used the wrong color in colors.css - either of which can cause these issues.

Fixed, will commit shortly, included quite a few color improvements also (and I found a few other conflicts).

Tested new dev version - the draw issue has been fixed. So has regular buttons' gradient colours. Thanks!

What does not seem to have been fixed is the text colour of ordinary buttons - they stay at '#333', changing colour in the control panel has no effect. Not a major issue, obviously.

Yeah, I just spotted that myself Stan, I'll take a look later today, pretty easy to fix and will certainly work correctly once we get to a stable release (hopefully not too far away).

Still have problem to change color of Button text even in 7.x-3.0-rc1, when choosing Cherry Blossom the color number of Button text is #ffffff but it actually displayed in black, so it is difficult to see with #6c0a0a as button top and bottom...

There are some major color disparities from Firefox to IE8 (and maybe other versions.) In IE8 field, line item, and order background colors are a sickly green-white, and the header text on the checkout pages is electric blue. I'm not well versed in css yet, but I would really like to change the look of these elements as well as the aforementioned buttons.

I have still been trying to change the color of the text on my buttons - they changed once, and then no more. Also, the hover color for my menu text is stuck "on," so that it looks as though all menu tabs are activated.

When looking through the theme's css files, I noticed that some of the color codes are only three digits long rather than the full hexadecimal six (i.e. "#255" - I see this also in Footheme's colors.css file). The 255 code heads 255255, 255fff, and 255000. 255fff is the electric blue that is showing incorrectly for headings on my checkout pages. Could Internet Explorer be making the incorrect choice from the three hexadecimal options beginning with 255? Could this happen even if they are listed as RGB in the code? As I said, I am new to css, but am trying my best to track this down.

Issue "IE8 & #header-wrapper - wrong background gradient": https://drupal.org/node/1511652 speaks of the same electric blue intruding, and changes were made to IE8 conditional stylesheets to remedy the problem.
