i'm also quite confused how you saw that image with that section

only white on white :/
I find this interesting. I can see a very light yellow pop-u on your
supplied screen-shot. I used GIMP to confirm those HTML color values:
The white background = ffffff
The popup = ffffe1
well, i'll be... i just check this in the tool i used to create the graphic... i
use the printscreen key to capture the screen and then pasted that into the tool
where i then cropped it down so it wasn't too large for the list... the tool i
used is an older paintshop pro and it causes the system to change the color
scheme to "windows vista basic"...
using the eye dropper tool, it took me a few minutes to realize the RGB values
were 255,255,225... at some point, i had leaned over sideways and i did notice
that there was a yellow tint to that popup... if i am at a roughly 45 degree
angle left or right of the laptop screen, then i see the very light yellow... if
i'm 45 degrees above or below, then it is kind of greenish with the editor's
white background looking blue...
I just checked my popup on Lazarus Ver 1.3, and it is definitely white on
white,
i'm glad i'm not the only one being fooled by this :)
i'd still rather have a ""proper"" border around the popup, though :)
although I had once manually changed some settings in the
Linux gtkrc setting file pointed to by ~/.gtkrc-2.0:
as noted above, this is on a vista machine so no gtk stuffs here for me to edit
;)
filename:
/usr/share/themes/Aurora/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
I once had light gray text on white, so I changed the following line of
that file to back tooltip fg on white tooltip bg as follows:
gtk_color_scheme =
"fg_color:#000000\nbg_color:#C7C7C7\nbase_color:#ffffff\ntext_color:#000000\nselected_bg_color:#247EB3\nselected_fg_color:#ffffff\ntooltip_bg_color:#FFFFFF\ntooltip_fg_color:#000000"
interesting :)
