Bridge has been missing medium gray Color Theme for the last several releases.

[Bruce!]

Hello, friends!
I know many like their light and dark (and super-dark) user Color Theme, but I sorely miss the medium gray interface level. Adobe Bridge used to have this brightness level but now it doesn't, and I find it to be frustrating.

Dear readers, maybe you do, too!

Love,

Its not missing, its part of the multiple redesigns over the past half dozen releases. I'd rather they fixed the performance which has never been good and the UI that they destroyed. Bridge 13-15 are a tragedy.

I'm not sure why you say the gray is not missing, @Lumigraphics. I also do not understand why it was removed and why they cannot return it to the users. From that logic, I guess you could say that performance is not missing either when you compare it to (say) Acrobat. 😄

But there is an extensive amount of functions and tools that people have been asking for since Bridge 13 to be returned and/or implemented that have been ignored — performance is one of many of these parts.

Hey, Adobe finally let me make keyboard shortcuts in Bridge, which was very nice. I am hoping that Bridge can successfully walk and chew gum at the same time. In this case, I'm going to say"keyboard shortcuts" is walking and  "medium gray color theme" is the equivalent of chewing gum, in case it wasn't immediately clear. But for you, maybe "performance" might wiggle into one of those positions.

I'm not impressed by the new versions. I guess you could say the middle color schemes are missing, since they existed before.

A LOT of software has gone to rendered HTML/CSS in a webview, since this is easy to code and support is universal. Adobe has cross-platform frameworks that are painful on both platforms, not sure if that is the problem.

For creative inspiration: Photoshop has had it for some time, four lightness levels.
(Adobe please don't remove the medium gray Color Appearance from Photoshop, this would be the wrong direction and it would make me sad)
