Based on the latest designs, it seems we now want a darker frame for template mode and previews.

This small hack is here to not show the light border under the toggle, especially in "preview" or "template mode"

You can use $border-width here, that returns 1px. Not because we need to change the contents of that variable very often, but it helps work sort of like a comment to explain what that pixel is for.

We should probably add a similar hack to "hide" the inspector border too.

Looks good. @jameskoster what color is the border on the canvas in your mockups? Is it still the light gray used here?

Personally I think the dark grey clashes with the color of the W button that takes you back to the dashboard.

Back link:
The white link color has a good color contrast against the dark grey background, but the hover color has a contrast ratio against the white that is too low. There needs to be a higher contrast or a text decoration.
The easiest way would be to use the same type of box shadow that other buttons have on hover.

When the link is clicked, -active, the color is so dark that it is close to invisible.

When clicking the back link, chrome, windows.
active link text color has low contrast compared to the background color

what color is the border on the canvas in your mockups? Is it still the light gray used here?

Yes I've been using the same color we use for all borders which I believe is grey-300. It works well to distinguish the frame against a variety of different theme background colors:

Another option is to use elevation...

... which works better on the dark frame than the light one. But still presents other challenges.
