I found this bug while looking for a workaround to the issue kbit reported here... I found some help investigating this on IRC and it led to this bug, which has a more detailed diagnosis:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=548295 Long story short: Nautilus uses an Eel editable label for renaming in icon view, and that uses fg[NORMAL] on base[NORMAL] background -- technically incorrect, but usually not noticeable until you start using a theme that has light-on-dark for most controls, but dark-on-light for editable ones. benzea in #gnome-art pointed to a helpful workaround (below) and filed the bug linked above. style "blub" { fg[NORMAL] = @text_color } widget_class "*.EelEditableLabel" style "blub" -- [nautilus] Invisible text when renaming files on a dark theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/237649 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
