Color scheme support in skins partially broken when using stylesheets

[jus]

Just read in http://mixxxblog.blogspot.de/2012/06/mixxx-1101-released.html#comment-form that there is an issue with 1.11 beta1 skins that make use of the color scheme support in Mixxx ( currently only the OUTLINE skins) in . This is also follow up to the color scheme issues reported in https://bugs.launchpad.net/mixxx/+bug/921174/comments/1

For 1.11 skins we use a global declaration for styling the tooltip. Apparently this interferes with <NumberBpm>,<Text> and <TrackProperty> which appear always black. As a workaround for 1.11 i`ll deactivate stylesheets for tooltip in these skins globally, they are now in QT standard yellow.

Is this still an issue?

Unfortunately all the text in labels is black again like in the original bug description. Tested with current lp:mixxx/1.11.
I worked around it for 1.10.1 but cant't say when this slipped in again. Maybe related to changes in https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mixxxdevelopers/mixxx/release-1.11.x/revision/3522

Argh, yes that commit caused it.

Fixed the widget setup for WNumber/WLabel derivatives (WTrackProperty derives from WLabel). It turns out this was caused by a change in the ordering of setPalette and setStyle that I had caused in lp:mixxx/1.11 r3522. If you setPalette() after setStyle() then it will be ignored. I had to change the widget setup in LegacySkinParser so that WWidget::setup() is called before the composed widget goes through the standard (size/tooltip/style) setup.

Maybe we can finally get rid of Outline (and color schemes) in 1.12?

[Daniel Schürmann (daschuer)]

Why that ... after we put that much effort into iron out all issues.
We have currently no alternative like outline for netbooks.
