Changes includes Dropping the translucent background, fixing inconsistent padding and better background radius handling.

  • Dropping translucent background: dropping the translucent background and replacing it with background color as dark as the gnome shell popover elements helps with achieving better contrast. Once crucial feature of the dock that is affected by the translucent background is the separator. Some wallpaper practically makes the separator nearly invisible. A much darker border is also applied to panel mode but only on the side opposite to the current dock position. This helps achieve separation with full screen
    windows.

  • Fixing inconsistent padding: In panel mode, there is a behavior where the top and bottom padding (when dock is vertically oriented) is larger. The original shrunk padding is still kept. With the consistencies applied, calculating the dock radius when not in panel becomes more consistent.

  • Better background radius handling: The icon radius is changed and matched to popover item radius. With this change, dock radius is better handled and is calculated by the sum of the icon radius and the current dock padding.
