Rendering Bug - Cannot See Text if Selecting a Para in a Warning/Note/Important Box
Last modified: 2011-08-27 01:13:56 EDT
Created attachment 498653 [details] Screenshot showing how text cannot be read once para is selected. Description of problem: If I click on a paragraph in a DocBook callout box (such as a note or a warning) I cannot read the text in the highlighted selection. I have replicated this problem in both Firefox and Chrome. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): beacon-0.5-4.fc14.noarch How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select a para within a DocBook note or warning box. 2. Yellow highlighting makes text contained in para invisible. You can start typing new text but you won't be able to see it. Actual results: Text invisible Expected results: Text should be visible. Additional info:
Maybe the text is there but the white font on the very pale yellow selection background makes it virtually impossible to see.
Created attachment 501256 [details] Proposed patch to draw outline for focussed element. Looked into this one. The purpose of changing the background colour on node select was to highlight that this area is editable. I have two solutions for this bug, 1. Change the code to draw a thin outline to make the area stand out (I'm attaching the patch that does the same), or 2. Reduce the brightness of the selected area (this would require a few extra computations every time a node is selected). Could you please apply the attached patch and see if the first approach works or would the second approach look better? To apply the patch cd into /usr/share/beacon and (most probably) you'll have to use sudo. Will combine the modifications for the other bugs and release an RPM later.
Fixed in upstream and current release.
