Thread: Grid View Unusable With High-Contrast Theme

Grid View Unusable With High-Contrast Theme

From
Paul Rogers
Date:
Trying to enter or review data using the Grid View is impossible with
high-contrast themes on Ubuntu. Often such themes use a default text
color of white and background color of dark blue.

Pgadmin 1.8's Grid changes the header text color to black but leaves the
background unchanged and the cell background to white but leaves the
cell text unchanged. Please consistently change both the foreground and
background together or leave both colors unchanged.

Ideally Pgadmin would include options within the configuration GUI for
any non-system colors and styles it uses so the values could be changed.

pgAdmin doesn't use any custom colouring in the UI. Does this happen
with the wxWidgets Grid sample application?
