I've dived into this a little bit more, and it's not fixable without touching gedit's C code.
The bugreport is reproducible only if you keep the window focus on the find/find-replace window while selecting the items, in that way, main gedit window is then using ACTIVE colors, as it should do. If you keep the window focus on gedit (and not on the find/find-replace window) while searching for matches, the color will be the SELECTED (white on orange) as we want. But in this case, if we apply this kind of tweak, by forcing ACTIVE colors to behave like SELECTED, then... when you select some text and unfocus gedit (like choosing another window) you'll see the selected text still orange giving the wrong impression gedit is still selected and focused! I would say "Won't Fix", or postpone it to Oneiric while I will look into gedit's code if there's a way to force the find/find-replace dialogs to colorize the searched element with a selected color (if that makes sense or not, as I'm not so sure of that, it will be inconsistent with the rest of gtk+ apps) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/740864 Title: Find result is too light gray -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
