2015-02-15 23:23:11 Thomas Dalichow description Hi folks, I just tried freya beta2 and installed evolution. As it turns out, the mail body is drawn as black (probably) due to shortcomings in the elementary gtk theme. The fix somebody on the internets put together looks like the following: The following code fixes pic1.png but still leaves us with pic2.png. I found it somewhere on the internets... File: /usr/share/themes/elementary/gtk-3.0/gtk.css (put the code at the very bottom of the file) GtkWindow { color: @theme_fg_color; background-color: @theme_bg_color; } GtkPaned { color: @theme_fg_color; /* Evolution sets the background color of its mail window to the background * color of entries, but cannot handle background images. Setting the * background color here doesn't effect real entries, because * 'background-image' has precedence. */ background-color: @theme_bg_color; } This is probably some error in the elementary theme but the solution above is probably just a bad fix. I have no clue as to what a proper solution might be. pic1.png pic2.png the text area in which the message is composed still draws black Cheers Thomas Hi folks, I just tried freya beta2 and installed evolution.
