Yellow warning

When using Dark Themes (e.g. Arc Dark), I can't read the root warning (yellow bar).
Is there a way to change the warning bar color (yellow) or the warning font (white)?

To view this issue, change to a Dark Theme, like Arc Dark, righ-click on a folder and choose "open root Thunar here".

Nothing special about the used code in thunar:
https://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/tree/thunar/thunar-window.c#n861

Just a default gtk info bar with message_type: GTK_MESSAGE_WARNING. The coloring comes from the theme you picked.

Please file a bug against Blackbird / Arc Dark  ( Seems to be no problem with Adwaita-dark )

Thanks, but where can I find this "thunar-window.c" file? (I tried but unable to locate "path: root/thunar/thunar-window.c")
And about editing these colors, should I use the files inside /usr/share/themes/<theme>?

thunar-window.c is a thunar source-code file. You will not find it on your system ... it's only used to compile the thunar binary .. probably not what you want.

I never tried to modify a gtk theme by hand .. however the search engine of your choice will give you some results:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/93278/how-to-change-gtk-theme

Please dont forget to file a bug against greybird (first search if such a bug already exists):
https://github.com/shimmerproject/Greybird

... same for any other dark theme which shows white text on yellow background.
