The new default and currently non configurable dash transparency can become virtually unreadable depending on desktop background and or window(s) open
Additionally the idea of 'coloring' the dash based on the desktop doesn't seem to be well thought thru either
An option to either adjust the transparency or better yet use previous smoked glass effect seems to be needed if it's intended to continue using the current trans and color based on desktop
Attached is a screen using one of the default provided desktop backgrounds and having the dash open over a nautilus window

1. In the "Background" settings, choose "Wallpapers", then "Grey Day" (black and white skyscrapers) or "Touch the light" (branch with white blobs).
2. Open a maximized mainly-white window, such as this bug report.
3. Open the Dash.

summary |
Dash is way too transparent, unsuitable for light & monochrome desktops |
Active & Static blurs can be unsuitable for light & monochrome desktops, No blur needs some opacity |

Other possible solutions suggested on ayatana@:
* Give the text an outline. [Conscious User]
* Use the opposite of the background in a chosen color space. [Conscious User]
* Switch to black text for any background that exceeds some brightness level on most of its surface. [Thorsten Wilms]
* Forget about the transparency. Set static back- and foreground colors. [Thorsten Wilms]
* Use the same centered and slightly-blurred drop shadow that Notify OSD uses. [Mirco Müller]
* A soft drop shadow around every Dash icon and text element. [Stefanos A.] |
