Media Overview - Overlays - Use Surface color?

Feature description:

Are you able to force the Media Overview pages (Artist, Album, etc.) to use the theme’s colors for overlays? At least for me, they are pulling from the device’s colors.

Problem solved:

Overlay colors don’t match with app’s surface color.

Brought benefits:

Better ability to blend colors

Allows use of gradient overlay to “hide” the sharp line dividing art section and info section (see screenshots)

Other application solutions:

 

 

Additional description and context:

 
My goal really is just to soften the sharp dividing line.

Pic 1: Light Mode gets this nearly right. The line almost disappears into the gradient overlay (“Top and Bottom”, 0% transparency).

Pic 2: Dark Mode fails because my device is pulling some funky grey instead of using black

Pic 3: My “Layer Finder” theme in Light Mode, which has no white set. (Showing that the overlay is pulling from my device colors.)

Pic 4: Large example of the intended style

It takes from background instead of surface yes I mixed up the new overlays.

But be sure to not enable the option to not change surface colors in dynamic colors :wink:
