i3bar color setting for mode vs. urgent_workspace?

Steve B.

When entering a mode, such as the "resize" mode which is provided as a default, the i3bar displays the mode using the urgent_workspace color setting.

I like having my urgent_workspace displayed as bright red, but I also have fairly modal based keybindings and seeing a bright red box flash is a bit distracting.

Is there a separate color setting when displaying the mode?

At the moment there is no separate color setting for displaying the current mode.

If this keeps bugging you, you may want to open a new i3 ticket for a feature request.
