How do I make Ubuntu 22.04 Dock more rounded and change border color?

in flag

Is there some easy way I can make the Dock for Ubuntu 22.04 more rounded like setting a CSS property border-radius: 999px and also I would like to change the border color. I cannot find a GNOM extension to do this. Also I did not find options in dconf for these settings either.

Thanks to @alejandro I was able to change the Dock theme and here are the exact steps I took to do it (in case anyone else wants it).

  1. Install the GNOME User Themes extension (if it is not installed already)
  2. I activated the Yaru Dark theme (for shell) (choose any theme you want as your base)
  3. Edit your theme's gnome-shell.css file (in my case it was located at /usr/share/themes/Yaru-dark/gnome-shell/gnome-shell.css)

In the case of Yaru-dark there was already some CSS code specific for styling the Ubuntu Dock (classes starting with #dashtodockContainer) and I changed the border-radius from 18px to 999px everywhere and also I added border-color: transparent !important under #dashtodockContainer.bottom #dash .dash-background

Now my Dock looks much better like this: enter image description here

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
