Welcome to Audacity dialog box at startup, cannot read show/hide.

You can see the check box but not the text to the right of it.

See attached screenshot.

Same when on default light theme or the dark theme.

Fix has not been released upstream. Was closed with a maybe it will get one day or maybe not.

[Erich Eickmeyer (eeickmeyer)]

As this is a completely upstream bug, there's next to zero chance we'll be able to patch this in Ubuntu. Even if we could, the patch would likely become irrelevant if upstream so much as coughed. So, unfortunately, no action will be taken from our end. We will have to wait for upstream to fix this, for that to land in Debian, and for that to automatically sync to Ubuntu (this package comes automatically synced from Debian up to Feature Freeze of each release).
