In ubuntu,

Change background colour back to yellow, and foreground colour to black.

And restart Eclipse after that.

Hi Praveen:
  I tested the snippet again in new version of eclipse(Version: 3.5.2
Build id: 20100218-1602).I found the problem still exist. In addition,I found the tooltip works well when using other themes(except "Appearance") of Ubuntu. Seems, that the text color for tooltips defined in OS theme is not recognized by SWT(theme "Appearance" defines for tooltips a black background and white text -> if you change the background color to yellow, the tooltip in ToolTip will be yellow with black text color),I think it should be caused by ToopTip does not inherit the text color of the Ambiance Theme.The text color is always "black", so if some theme(like "Ambiance", default of Ubuntu10.04) set the backcolor as black, we can not see text on tooltip any way.

This bug should definitely be fixed. While the normal text on the tooltip was white for me and there readable (although very ugly IMO), additional content of the tooltip like icons and especially links are not visible well (see attachment). Changing the tooltip colors of the theme works for me. In my opinion, the tooltips of a light theme should not be black anyway but yellow like the users are accustomed to.

In reply to comment #12

It is not eclipse's fault, per se. Eclipse uses several different text colours according to the syntax highlighting of the editor being used. If it were eclipse's "fault", then Eclipse would be responsible to check every single possible conflict of colours and dynamically re-configure the theme, which is completely ridiculous, and invalidates the entire point of eclipse managing its own syntax highlighting.

It should actually be gtk's responsibility to recognize when applications specify custom text colours / themes. In those cases, gtk should _not_ apply the default text colour / font / etc, but rather those specified by the application. Only when an application does not specify custom text colours / fonts / etc, should gtk resort to the default text colour / font / etc.

Alexey Kotlyarov (koterpillar) wrote : Re: [Bug 540332] Re: eclipse: tooltips unreadable

It is Eclipse's fault IMHO. GTK theme specifies that:
- editor text should be drawn using background color A and foreground
color B.
- tooltips should be drawn using background color C and foreground color
D.
It guarantees that A and B, as well as C and D, are distinguishable.

Eclipse makes an incorrect assumption that if it mixes all the colors
together, D will be fine on A.

GTK can do nothing to prevent Eclipse from using the theme's colors (see
http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554600 for another example).

Right, in ToolTip#createHandle() we set the background of the window to COLOR_INFO_BACKGROUND, so it does make sense to set the foreground of the PangoLayouts to COLOR_INFO_FOREGROUND.

But I don't think gtk_expose_event is the right place, the foreground should be set in setText() and setMessage() where the layout was created and initialized.

I tried calling gtk_widget_modify_fg() with the text/message color in setText() and setMessage(), but it rendered black text/message, so did not work.

So, that's why Im usng gdk_gc_setforeground().
gdk_gc_set_foreground() needs a GdkGC. So I don't think we can call it in setText() and in setMessage(). But I think we can call display.getSystemColor() in setText() and in setMessage() at least.
I will update the patch soon.

I modified a patch in comment #7 slightly. This patch calls display.getSystemColor() in setMessage() and in setText() and remembers it, and set it in gtk_expose_event().

Actually ExpandBar widget is doing the same as a patch in comment #7. So, either this patch or the patch in comment #7 would be ok for me.

The info color background in ubuntu is black (and foreground is white).
Currently the code only sets the background of the tooltip to info background (==black), but it leaves the default foregorund set (also black).

I have the testcase set in SSQ's machine if you need a demo.

Note: the emulated tooltip has the same problem (not setting the foreground), but the problem will never be seeing because the platforms using the emulated tooltip (motif/carbon/cocoa) hardcode the color for info background and foreground(always black on yellow).

in reply to #18:

This has absolutely nothing to do with eclipse!
If an application developer wants to use custom fg and bg colors, he/she will have a reason to do so, rather than using the system defined ones. (And if it is simply, because he/she wants his/her app to look the same, no matter what theme/distro is used, that should also be respected!)

In such a case, the gtk has to repsect the applications settings, rather than enforcing some system defined defaults!
Maybe there is not function in gtk te let an application tell the toolkit to use the default colors? That is not a fault of Eclispe either. If an application specifies colors, those should be respected, not overriden!
Also, the whole mess with GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS is ridiculous. Why isn't the some sort of compatibility API, if the developers decide to change the API between minor releases?
I had to set this flag for flash too, because some flash apps where not usable. And it took ages to find out that it was GDK not flash that was faulty, and where to apply the fix...

Alexey Kotlyarov (koterpillar) wrote :

Eclipse *can* override all colors (see comment #7), but only for C. And
the problem is, by default it overrides the foreground color but not the
background, therefore the mess.

So a solution will be to either respect all theme colors, or none (and
end up with something like the notebook crapware:

BigBadBassMan (d-reiche) wrote :

nope, this happens also for the PHP and JAVA flavours of Eclipse.
besides that, changing the theme to something other than Ambiance or Radiance solves the problem.

So, is it a bad theme-ing decision to use dark backgrounds,
or the eclispe folks, who have not considered that the backgroundcolor may be dark, and forgot to set the foreground color explicitely?

Anyway, it is not user friendly, to tell folks to use a different theme, when their most used application is barely usable.

The problem with manually changing the colors is: eclipse may work, but you break tooltips in other apps!
For me, eclipse showed TTs with black text on light background, whereas Firefox tried to render background and text of Tooltips in light colors - same as above but the other way around. Only reason was to switch to a different theme.

I have changed the tooltips to be dark on light, this works everywhere.

I had the same problem as BigBadBassMan. Unfortunately I'm using ZendStudio so I can't update to Eclipse 3.6 until Zend does. My fix was to change tooltips to text=black and blackgorund=#808080, which is halfway between black and white. Now in both Zend Studio AND Firefox I can read the tooltips. To me it looks bad, but at least I can use it.

Hi

I have tried to backport this to the eclipse in Ubuntu and have uploaded
modified versions of eclipse to the team PPA[1].

If you decide to test if this patch work, please remember to test with a
"clean" eclipse (rename ~/.eclipse and create a new workspace for the
test). This is especially true for all of who have deployed a workaround.

Hi

If you downloaded that 3.6RC2 from eclipse.org, then please report your
result directly to the upstream bug so they are aware of it and can
revise their solution. There is a link to it in this report.

~Niels

NB: Just for clarification, the packages I uploaded to the PPA mentioned
in my previous post is a patched 3.5.2 and not 3.6 - if you used those,
please test the 3.6RC2 from eclipse.org before posting on the upstreams

Martin, you are seeing a variant of bug 312966 which was filed against JDT. This bug (at the SWT level) has indeed been fixed, but we have these other cases that result in similar black-text-on-black-background situations. You should probably file a new bug against CDT (and reference the existing bugs for context) to make them aware of the problem.

As a workaround, you could try to set a different "Source hover background" color, for the Java editor that's under Preferences > Java > Editor. I hope CDT has an equivalent preference page for their editors.
