The color theme is responsible for the hover effect. A flat color
theme will probably use a single color highlight, controlled by the
@navbar-default-link-hover-bg LESS variable. A 3D color theme may use
some gradients to achieve the 3D effect on hover. A minimalistic color
theme (like Simplex) will just change the text color on hover, leaving
the background transparent.
This proposal/vote is about agreeing on:
* displaying a small vertical bar between the menu label and toggle
(using a color derived from the menu background) to indicate the
separation between the two (especially for tablet devices where
there's no hover)
* hovering/activating the menu label and the toggle separately, as it
happens with a drop down button (e.g. the Add button).
Thanks,
Marius
