Text is white and hard to read

Post by FastThenLeft »

FRP Version 04.02.17 - Build Date: 02-17-2019 Both Web Launch and Manual Install versions
Using either Ubuntu 18.04 or 18.10
Using either Oracle Java 8 or Oracle Java 11 or OpenJDK 11

The application text is white on very light blue(?) and very hard to read. I have tried different themes and it doesn't make any difference. See the image below:

Update: I had to reboot to make the themes change the text color. So what I have found is that any "dark" theme makes the text go white which is very hard to read on that light blue color.

Thanks for posting your experience with this.

It's a bummer that the themes don't properly remap the colors that the program uses. It seems like they should maintain the relative luminosity of each color through the remap, but maybe I don't understand how the themes work.

At least folks having this problem can see a solution now that you've posted this.

Thanks for the update. Just so anyone who's following this will know, what version of Java are you using?
