Well, I am now addressing this issue by having switched to a non official theme.
Instead of the quite beautiful radiance, I am now actively using the dark-aurora theme, see link bellow. http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Dark+Aurora?content=170523 A quite subtle Theme, though not as refined as the Radiance. With this theme, if you restart eclipse you will the heap is now readable. Similarly to windows 7, you will have the letters on the heap counter written in black. The bar propertional to heap consumed is pure white, so the letters are readable all the time. Overall this Theme is a better match for working in eclipse. I believe it would make sense that by default the downloaded Eclipse should simply work on Ubuntu default theme. In Mac and Windows, eclipse simply works. And since eclipse is not exclusive to Ubuntu, you can have it red-hat or any other linux distribution, there is some likelihood this more an Issue for Ubuntu than for Eclipse itself. Many thanks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554600 Title: Heap status (memory usage) indicator is unreadable with light themes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/554600/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
