Care to point to a screenshot, so it's possible to understand what you
see - and what you expect?

Here're 2 screenshots:

It's the "benchbox" button that's selected - near the upper left, right below where it says "Dan's from Dan's".

The default Adwaita theme has a fair distinction between states:

The transition between active and inactive is also animated.

Graphene is only necessary for GTK+ 3.9x (master branch). GTK+ 3.22
does not use it.

I was bulding 3.9 for a while, before I realized it was a development version.  But I removed the binaries and started over with the older GTK+.  But when I did that, I didn't reevaluate what dependencies needed to be built, thinking some of them may become necessary someday.  I was happy to discover that the only thing I needed to downgrade was gtk itself.

As assurance that I'm using the production GTK+, this succeeds, where it didn't previously:

gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0')

Thanks!
