[Bug 899878] Re: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg
@octoquad , I downloaded the modified files from your branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~octoquad/software-center/899878-hardcoded- colors-dark-theme/revision/3326 and used them to directly replace the corresponding files in `/usr/share/software-center/*` . I wouldn't normally replace files like this, but Ubuntu 14.04LTS and 15.10 use the same version of Software Center except for some patches (See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center ). Then for testing dark theme, I copied `/usr/share/software- center/ui/gtk3/css/softwarecenter.adwaita-dark.css` and renamed the copy to `softwarecenter.numix bluo-dark.css`, coz Numix Bluo (a custom mod of Numix theme) is my current GTK theme. Then I opened Software Center and it loaded the dark theme! But wait, the color was a bit grey coz of the old `stipple.png`. So, I tried @bsperger 's transparent stipple from https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center/+bug/899878/comments/37 but for some reason it crashes Software Center. So, I tried the one from https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center/+bug/899878/comments/40 and exported it to PNG using GIMP. Software Center loads it fine, but results were similar to the 4th case (transparent stipple with custom css) from https://bugs.launchpad.net/software- center/+bug/899878/comments/39 . So, like in the 5th case, I edited `/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/views/catview.py` and reduced alpha to 0.1 and then it looked well! So on the whole, the patch looks compatible with 14.04LTS's Software Center and so I request a backport through an SRU update. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899878 Title: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center/+bug/899878/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

HEXCube, thanks for testing. The only thing I was slightly concerned about is the detection of the gnome dark theme in softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/utils.py. You can also use the original stipple and reduce the opacity to 0.3 or lower( to go darker).

If a minor bug like this can't be fixed, then how should I feel about the quality of the Ubuntu Software Center as a whole? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899878 Title: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center/+bug/899878/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 899878] Re: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg
I took some time to test out Matthews idea about the transparent stipple. I have attached some screen shots which show the stipple in different states: 1. The original 2. Transparent 3. Original with custom Adwaita CSS 4. Transparent with custom Adwaita CSS 5. Transparent with custom Adwaita CSS and 90% transparency drawn by Cairo (line 178 of catview.py). Default is 50%. When testing the transparent stipple with Adwaita, the text becomes more illegible. USC has support to load custom css based off the gtk-theme-name, which you can see in line 55 of utils.py. You can easily test the loading of the theme by opening USC and then changing it to something like highcontrast which has its on css file and this will change in real time. So if you use Numix you can provide a softwarecenter.numix.css. From what I can see for a workaround to use GTK theme colors, simply move softwarecenter.css out the way (softwarecenter.css.bak). The code currently looks for a softwarecenter.theme-name.css if that does not exist, it loads up the softwarecenter.css. If that does not exist as well it uses the styling from the GTK theme. Alternatively whip up your own CSS file for your favourite theme, or ask the author to create one for USC if you want USC to match the theme. I hope that helps a bits. I understand that this approach is for Adwaita, but no one has provided the theme name they use when they filed or commented on this bug report. So my next question is, what theme(s) are you using? ** Attachment added: Stipple Test Images https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/899878/+attachment/4427906/+files/stipple-test.tar.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899878 Title: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center/+bug/899878/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 899878] Re: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg
I tried both default themes Radiance and Ambience in Ubuntu 12.04 to check if they work well with killhellokitty's CSS file. Everything seems to be okay, except for selected items' text color in list view. Both background and foreground are light colors. this is because the CSS file was designed for dark themes. ideally software center should show dark text with light background and light text on dark themes. killhellokitty's css theme is better than the default one, but needs a little more work to be the ideal theme. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899878 Title: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center/+bug/899878/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

(I reported the incorrect patch detection as bug 1246487.) HEXcube, thank you for that research. I think the next steps towards getting this bug fixed are: A. Replace USC's normal CSS file with killhellokitty's CSS file, to see if it works in both of the standard Ubuntu themes. B. If it does work, produce a diff of one file against the other so we can see exactly what is changed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899878 Title: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center/+bug/899878/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 899878] Re: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg
I can't believe that this bug started in Oneiric(maybe even before that) and it's still not fixed after Raring (as per https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/913933 ). Ubuntu Software Center is a core feature of Ubuntu distribution and yet such a bug which affects its usability is left unnoticed! Why can't it just follow the system theme instead of using hardcoded colors. Some Dark Theme developers have found workarounds involving replacing the softwarecenter.css with custom versions. One such fix by Delorean Dark theme developer is attached here. It is optimised for Dark Themes and works fine with light ones too. I don't know if it works perfectly with light themes,but it does try to use current theme colors instead of hardcoded ones,atleast in some places. ** Attachment added: Delorean Dark's Software Center fix for Dark Themes https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/899878/+attachment/3892155/+files/softwarecenter.css -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899878 Title: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/software-center/+bug/899878/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've been poking about, but there are a lot of files associated with the software center, so if one of you could tell me which of those to edit, I'll happy do it manually for now. I tried editing /usr/share/software- center/ui/gtk3/css/softwarecenter.css, but a;as, while I could change some colors there (specifically, the ones on the first screen), still couldn't change the colors for font or background for the application information screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/899878 Title: Software center have hardcoded colors and shows white font on white bg To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/899878/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
