Make pressed buttons more visible

Hi,
Is it possible to make the status of
pressed buttons more visible (more lighter or more darker color and/or red frame, for example) ?

(Option button push effect doesn't have enough effect either. Unless we can change the color, which I haven't found.)
Thanks

Currently it's not possible. What do others think?

It is slightly better with dark skin that I use, but I also think it needs some more accent..

In my stuff, I use a color gradient to give a 2.5d (?) style..

Color gradients are so not en vogue.

I wonder why the lines a reddish. What are your dark mode settings?

Agreed. The background will be slightly brighter in the next beta in light mode.

Not like a big problem for me, but sometimes i was thinking same: it could be better if pressed state looked "more pressed".(either by more intense colour change or indeed button border colour change)

Done in v26.80.0403 - 2025-02-05 14:57
PS: I'm softening to the idea to go even a little further. Next beta.

A simple, easy-to-see reminder for active filters (use the window title bar)

Or a red text label "Active(s) Filter(s): ... " at the bottom left of the OK button
or 3 checkboxes.

The toolbar should do. Double info is confusing.
