Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 57226
Unreadable tooltips - white on yellow
Last modified: 2011-02-12 21:12:34 UTC
I saw a similar bug to this before and thought it would be fixed for 2.0 final. I guess it wasn't quite the same thing. My tooltips are unreadable because they have white text on a yellow background. I am using the Geramik GTK engine, which borrows its colours from the user's Qt settings. In my case, I have white text on a dark blue background - hence the reason why the tooltips have white text. This problem also occured in some other apps, including Gaim, but this was fixed by adding the following to my .gtkrc-2.0 file. style "tooltips" { fg[NORMAL] = { 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 } text[NORMAL] = { 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 } } widget "gtk-tooltips*" style "tooltips"
@chewi: Problem still visible for you with 2.0.3?
Framework issue.
