Description Arthur Schiwon 2009-11-17 08:26:46 UTC

This bug reincarnated in Amarok 2.2.1 again :(

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #206495 +++

Version:           2.2 Beta 1 (using KDE 4.3.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

The background color of the lyrics applet seems to be hardcoded to white, though the font color actually is. This can lead to unreadable text, see http://imagebin.ca/view/sPbVAIK.html

Comment 1 Mark Kretschmann 2009-11-17 08:39:46 UTC

Hrm, I thought we had this fixed for good :(

(Any patches welcome!)

Comment 2 Rick W. Chen 2009-11-17 09:18:41 UTC

It is not hardcoded to white, but the colour selection might not work well for every colour style. Which one are you using? Is it "krog black"?

Comment 3 Arthur Schiwon 2009-11-17 18:31:06 UTC

No, i use Tragedy Color Theme (http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Tragedy+Black?content=103332)

Comment 4 Martin Blumenstingl 2009-11-17 19:39:16 UTC

@Mark: yes it was fixed - but somehow it broke again ;)
it probably broke in b920e13eec7b708878360f1c91d47bcf858c8314 (ironically, the message of that commit was "Improve the consistency of Lyrics applet's appearance with other applets" :))

some time ago I sent an email to amarok-devel (see here: http://lists.kde.org/?t=125571679400006&r=1&w=2)

Sorry about that, it was my commit. It should be fixed in git now.

Duplicate of Bug 206495. Can someone please mark as such?

Comment 9 Tristan Miller 2009-12-02 15:28:42 UTC

Bug has reappeared in amarok-2.2.1; can this bug (or the earlier Bug 206495) be reopened please?

Comment 10 Myriam Schweingruber 2009-12-02 16:11:21 UTC

It is fixed in Amarok 2.2-git already, stay tuned for Amarok 2.2.2 beta, due in a few weeks.
