Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-themes
This problem occurs in Ubuntu 6.10. I don't know if this is the right product or where I should file this complaint, but I hope it is right. Most laptop screens and especially old laptos, doesn't reproduce colors very well. Especially nuances of light gray looks indistinguishable from white. gnome-panel and metacity shades the icons of minimized programs in gray. That makes some icons almost invisible when they are minimized. Almost all icons suffer from this problem, but some more than others. For example, nautilus' and firefox' icons are clearly distinguishable when they are minimized in gnome-panel and metacity's alt-tab list. But xchat-gnome and gedit's icons, which are based on the colors white and yellow, are totally invisible. So either change gnome-panel so that it shades to darker gray colors or make the worst icons use more contrasting colors or redraw the lightest icons. ** Affects: gnome-themes (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- To low constrast in cons https://launchpad.net/bugs/84614 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
