[sdk] Grey buttons with white text look disabled (but they're not)

[Daniel van Vugt]

Grey buttons with white text look disabled (but they're not).

E.g. The Unity8 logout dialog.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

I think the common convention is:
High contrast between text colour and background = enabled
Low contrast between text colour and background = disabled

So where we use white text on a grey button, it doesn't look like a valid button that's pushable.

Confirmed, I got that feedback from friends trying a bq phone as well.

Just as a note, that's what is recommended on https://design.ubuntu.com/apps/building-blocks/buttons for neutral buttons as well so the design/documentation would need to be updated, it's not really an unity8 specific issue

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

A really dark grey would probably be less visually confusing.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Design says they are working on updates to the SDK and that it's going to address this issue

We are working on this adjustment at the moment. When 1.3 SDK lands then we should have fixed this issue.

Please move the Ubuntu UX task info into the older bug...
