Thanks very much, Tom. That's a lot of themes to choose from! I'm
concerned though most with functionality. Specifically, I'm after (1)
scroll buttons on the windows and, (2) I'd like to have much more of a
color difference of the window having the focus from the other windows.
I've opened a separate thread about scroll buttons (if that email is
allowed to come through onto this list).

You can still change themes in Tweaks, in the Appearance section.
I've never seen a theme that looks nicer than Adwaita though.

Hello Ken,
"changing themes" was a feature in earlier versions of Gnome.
I think in newer versions actually - "changing themes" has been
left away.
Gnome is not like KDE.

Carl,
Using preferences (Settings is what I think we're talking
about) and gnome-tweaks is not at all difficult-- well,
finding what needs to be changed is the most difficult, and
knowing the correct terminology to run a search. But I've
used both of those apps to make a lot of changes already.
What's much more difficult is making changes in gnome (or are
they in Wayland?) which are no longer configurable using
Settings or gnome tweaks... or perhaps not configurable at all
in gnome.

Hello Ken,
for how to use preferences in Gnome or how to use
gnome-tweaks, you could explore forums
like
ubuntu.com <http://ubuntu.com> or askubuntu.com
<http://askubuntu.com>
There are minimum differences, when you use Gnome in
different distros.
This way gnome-tweaks works.
You only need to know the version
for searching in forums.

Ken, that Desktop User Guide is very old (see the last
modified times
of files in https://people.gnome.org/~bmsmith/
<https://people.gnome.org/~bmsmith/>) and it does not refer
to GNOME 3 desktop environment used in Fedora 33.

tweak tool... iow, it doesn't seem to be the same app,
the Preference Tool, mentioned in the userguide.
