Okay, any thoughts about adding this fix to Precise in the form of an SRU? Precise + GNOME Panel can be a sensible choice as an accessible desktop operating system for an elderly user, for example, and currently this one bug is in the way.
** Description changed: Using the High Contrast theme, the panel in the GNOME Classic session gets a black background colour. However, the Main Menu applet is rendered with just black text, and no background of its own, so the text is unreadable. I have encountered this issue in Ubuntu 12.04 and current Ubuntu 12.10, and it renders the GNOME Classic session unusable for older users with vision problems. An SRU would be highly appreciated. + + Workaround: + Alt+Right click the offending panel, open the Properties dialog and set a white background colour. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1042470 Title: Using High Contrast theme, gnome-panel menu text appears black on black To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-themes-standard/+bug/1042470/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
