Bug Description

network-manager-applet's right-click menu (Enable Network, Enable Wireless, etc.) indicates enabled options using a white check mark symbol. This is not appropriate for a lighter-colored theme (e.g. Human). It is quite difficult to see the white check marks on a light gray background.

I am unable to attach a screen capture of the menu, as the applet grabs the mouse. To reproduce, just change the theme to 'Human'.

In Ubuntu 10.10 and later, network-manager-applet uses a standard indicator menu, with no right-click menu and standard checkmarks for toggle items. So this bug should be fixed.

If it is not fixed, please reopen this report and attach a screenshot. In Ubuntu's "Take Screenshot" utility (gnome-screenshot) you can take a screenshot of the whole screen with a delay of five seconds, and open the menu before the five seconds is up. Thanks.
