Cannot confirm this using OOo 3.2 and DEV300m76 on WinXP and ubuntu. Looks like the build from the ubuntu repository has different default settings for application colors. Please use official OOo builds and delete all configuration folders. Closed. In the official builds of OOo the default color for formulas is BLACK. You are right. It was caused by an extension, not by default settings. My sincere apologies for the noise. I found out that on document creation "Input box text" color is used for default text color. If this is wanted behaviour is somewhat questionable, I suspect most people would always want black text in documents, at least I do. The corresponding bug report for not-black theme is at launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/light-themes/+bug/574383 I do not understand what you mean by "Input box text". Could you please explain in a few words? Here, on my ubuntu and Windows the text of Math formula objects is black... "Input text color" is UI term for gconf key /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_color_scheme, which contains text_color. "Input box color" is gnome-appearance-properties UI term for gconf key /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_color_scheme, which contains text_color. Do you experience the problem in OO formula editor or also in other OOo applications? Created attachment 69265 [details]
Text color to red
I added a little picture with contrasting color. And yes, this affects all components of OO. What is special about formulas, is that once created formula will store it's default color and AFAIK this cannot be changed from UI later. I see now, but it is desired to have the text colored as set in the mentioned configuration. See also text will be colored then in gedit e.g. OOo takes the settings from the system as every application should do in this case. Closed, the behavior will not be changed here. |
By default all formulas are shown, exported and printed using gray, which is RGB(50,50,50). 1. On print this gives *ugly* results, because gray colors are made using raster. 2. This diminishes contrast on screen. This happens both on Ubuntu version of Openoffice (I know your feelings about that one) *and* latest OOo-dev. It likely also affects Windows and all other builds. There is an easy (but tedious) workaround, you can force black by "color black {}", which fixes all the abovementioned problems.
