One of my Fossil projects’ skins is based on Khaki, which hasn’t yet been restyled to override the base styles for the timeline boxes, so I get light gray on yellow, not terribly attractive. The following CSS snippet not only fixes that, it’s generic: td.timelineColumnarCell[id], td.timelineModernCell[id], td.timelineDetailCell[id] { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.03); } That is, we do an alpha blend to construct the slightly darker color for the boxes based on the background color. I like 3% black, but it can be up to about 5% before I start finding it objectionable. This should work for any skin with a light background color. Light-on-dark skins can use this related formation: td.timelineColumnarCell[id], td.timelineModernCell[id], td.timelineDetailCell[id] { background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.03); } That is, blend with 3% white instead of black. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
