Paul's answer helped despite of my sparse infos, thanks. I am using open SuSE, either openSUSE Leap 42.3 or 15.1 I am using ccp4-7.0 and coot 0.8.9.2 downloaded from the CCP4 Download pages
In the Application menu I could change Settings - Configure Desktop - Appearance - Workspace Theme - Look And Feel from default "openSUSE" to "Breeze Dark". This results in white text on gray background.

Example situation: I open the Ramachandran Dynarama. The I hover with the mouse over one of the dots for a residue. A small box appears, but the text is white on very light grey background. Most of the time impossible to read. I believe it is not a problem from coot, rather from some other setting somewhere, but I don't know where. Can I get a hint, what to change /set? When reporting issues with Coot it's often a good idea to tell us which version you are using, from where downloaded it and on which operating system and desktop you are trying to use it. For the record, I don't support ccp4 builds of Coot, but sometimes I help out. My guess is that this is some sort of Fedora system - try changing your desktop theme.
