poor colours on Options menu on login screen

[Jane Silber]

The "Options" menu on the login screen pops up a medium-grey menu with a light-grey selector. Very difficult to see the selected item.

This should be fixed now or at least much improved with the latest engine release, right?

[Jane Silber (silbs)]

Hmm, it's difficult to remember what it is like before, but I don't think it is much different. Perhaps the selected item has gotten a bit lighter? I think it may be a little better, but is still relatively difficult to distinguish background from selected item.

The current selection color looks quite noticable on my box

The distinction between both lines seems clear to me ...

[Matt Zimmerman (mdz)]

This looks pretty reasonable to me as well...

This should be reevaluated for Feisty.

[Troy James Sobotka (troy-sobotka)]

This would require modding the gtkrc file in the GDM, and that gets into aesthetics.

Perhaps we should forward this to our lead designer sabdfl?
