Committed on 22/06/2021 at 09:56. Pushed by hindenburg into branch 'master'. Add option to always invert text selection colours The recent change of blending the background/foreground colours for text selection doesn't work everywhere, users with vision impairment or colour-blindness would probably find it hard to distinguish text selection colours; and the current code can't possibly cover all variations of colour schemes out there. The same goes with certain displays and viewing angles, some display types are notoriously awful when viewed at an angle.

[konsole] [Bug 435309] 3b06b6f22 makes selection near invisible with some foreground/background color combinations
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=435309 --- Comment #27 from Duncan <1i5t5.dun...@cox.net> --- So I just woke up to another CC notification on this bug (Patrick Silva), and being in the creative state of just waking up while thinking about this bug gave me an idea... It seems to me that the new blended-color-selection behavior has visual characteristics both good and bad analogous to those of transparency/opacity, with arguably similar basic aesthetic appeal and ultimately similar practical readability problems, too. Arguably, then, a possible solution could be similar as well. The transparency preference is part of the color scheme, with the configuration being a 0-100% slider found in configuration/profiles/edit-profile dialog, appearance/color-scheme/edit-color-scheme dialog. What about a similar selection-blend slider in the same dialog as it's arguably similarly part of the color-scheme, 100%-strict-reverse at one end of the slider, 50/50 (or whatever) foreground/background blend (thus making foreground/background the same and selected text unreadable, again conceptually similar to 100% transparent) at the other? Or a bit more complex, add a selection-color static/dynamic checkbox option (analogous to the blur-background checkbox for transparency) to the reverse/blend slider. Dynamic would be the blend with the slider behaving as above. Static would have color-pickers for selection foreground/background, with the slider blending between those and strict reverse. Of course the question then would be where to set the defaults since it's well known that many users don't mess with them. Personally I'd favor 100% strict reverse as the most usable default for accessibility reasons, and I suppose most users on this bug would agree or they'd not be on the bug. OTOH, the author of the original color-blending selection commit would likely argue for a partially blended default. Unquestionably that's a lot of work compared to just reverting to the old 100% reverse-video selection behavior, work that I can't do because I'm not a coder, but it seems to me to be a reasonable compromise that would let people on both sides have exactly the behavior they want/need, as long as they're willing to spend a bit of time configuring it. And having it all per-profile as part of the appearance settings makes perfect sense too, just as it does with transparency. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Please return to the original behavior. My background is #00, my foreground
is #ff and the new behavior forces me to squint all the time.
For now, my only recourse is to add "return {};" to the top of
"std::optional calculateBackgroundColor(const Character* style, const
QColor *colorTable)" in src/terminalDisplay/TerminalPainter.cpp.

For those reading the bug who don't follow git closely enough to have seen the original git commit notes, they said: >> Improve appearance of text selection >> >> By blending foreground & background instead of swapping them, >> you can get a more visually appealing text selection. But "more visually appealing" really isn't if it's unreadable, and as we're demonstrating, blending instead of swapping, by definition, is going to lower that contrast... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

While the new colors (if not the code) still works for me, given the facts that it's not working for everyone, that a revert to the old reversing behavior would be find by me as well, and that all the related bugs are now duped to this one, I'll go ahead and reopen this to report the new code error rather than opening a new bug as I normally would since the aspect I personally am experiencing arguably /is/ a new bug. FWIW I'll update the invent thread with the new gcc-11.1.0 error as well. Again, this error is what I'm getting on the new gcc-11.1.0 I just installed, while switching back to 10.3.0 to double-check verifies 10.3.0 is still building the code without error: FAILED: src/CMakeFiles/konsoleprivate.dir/terminalDisplay/TerminalPainter.cpp.o [snip the big long commandline] ../konsole-/src/terminalDisplay/TerminalPainter.cpp:381:10: error: 'optional' in namespace 'std' does not name a template type 381 | std::optional calculateBackgroundColor(const Character* style, const QColor *colorTable) | ^~~~ ../konsole-/src/terminalDisplay/TerminalPainter.cpp:32:1: note: 'std::optional' is defined in header ''; did you forget to '#include '? 31 | #include +++ |+#include 32 | ../konsole-/src/terminalDisplay/TerminalPainter.cpp: In member function 'void Konsole::TerminalPainter::drawTextFragment(QPainter&, const QRect&, const QString&, const Konsole::Character*, const QColor*, Konsole::LineProperty)': ../konsole-/src/terminalDisplay/TerminalPainter.cpp:413:40: error: 'calculateBackgroundColor' was not declared in this scope 413 | const QColor backgroundColor = calculateBackgroundColor(style, colorTable).value_or(foregroundColor); |^~~~ ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed. FWIW reverting to 7c5f08a2e, immediately before the 3b0 commit that killed reverse-select, builds (and runs) with gcc-11.1.0 too. There's enough commits stacked on top of the target reversion commit now that it's getting a bit more complex to revert the individual commits (at least for a quick test), but reverting to that commit as head still works even if it's losing some other work by now as well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

No disrespect intended as I'm sure none was meant, but maybe a bit more context... Dawn of the millennium. Scroll-wheel-mice have been a thing for some years. I'm sitting there on Windows98, one hand alternating between chips and a beverage of choice, the other on the mouse as I read yet another article on Linux, which I ultimately make my operating system of choice for the new century as the best alternative to installing what after doing my research I had come to call eXPrivacy due to the then new MS authorization techniques. I'm absent-mindedly quick-double-click-select-marking/reading/scrolling/selecting/reading my way down the article, my mind on Linux... That quick-double-click-select-mark usage has lasted since well before the turn of the century thru countless mice/pointing-devices, two major operating systems and multiple versions/distros of each, across browsers, news and email clients, desktop-environments, switching Windows->xfree86->xorg->wayland, down to the present, where I'm still using it in konsole to scroll thru thousands of lines of kernel git logs or (as above) hundreds of live-git-update packages. The OSs/GUI-platforms/desktops/environments/apps and now hopefully temporarily necessary commit-revert patches to apps change, while the select-mark/scroll/read/select-mark usage, endures. Why would I complicate it by adding repeatedly typing one-shot-find text into an otherwise read/select/scroll-only window in ordered to update otherwise-random-text one-shot markers, when a simple double-click and scroll serves the purpose? Oh, and by the way (shaking my cane), get off my grass! I'm feeling old-and-set-in-my-ways now. Or is the term "experienced"? =:^) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=435309 --- Comment #3 from tcanabr...@kde.org --- Please use search for markers I understand and agree that this is a bug that needs to be fixed, but don’t use text selection to mark the spot where you are. Text search is better suited for that - or, we can create a way to actually use text markers with different colors in the future.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=435309 --- Comment #2 from Duncan <1i5t5.dun...@cox.net> --- Hmm, this *might* dupe bug #433512, which was filed in late February after the commit in question on Feb 10, but that bug lists OpenSuSE Tumbleweed with plasma 5.21.80 and frameworks 5.80.0 but no konsole version and not specifying git, so was his version before or after that commit. Additionally, that bug doesn't mention whether it's a regression or not. Would Tumbleweed have that commit in the two weeks between it and the filing? And the contrast in the screenshot there isn't anywhere /near/ as bad -- I can /see/ the selection there. In my screenshot, it's all but impossible to see the selection, certainly at a glance. So I'm not sure if it's just the pre-commit normal state, or if it's the same bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
