Description msmigiel 2015-04-25 13:02:31 UTC
I am running a fresh install of Kubuntu 15.04.

I have changed my desktop theme to Oxygen and logged out and in again. The Application Launcher is now dark gray/black but the folder trail font is black (ie the portion right below your user icon when you drill down into a menu) and cannot be seen unless you hover over it - upon hover it turns to a gray button.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On a fresh Kubuntu 15.04 install, change your desktop theme to Oxygen.
2. In Application Launcher, drill down to a sub menu, for example Applications -> Education -> Mathematics.
3. Note that you can't see the menu trail that normally appears right below your user icon. Hovering the mouse over it reveals it as a gray button.

Actual Results:  
The menu trail is invisible due to the black font on black background.

Expected Results:  
The font color should not be black, probably white or gray to match the rest of the Application Launcher. The button might also be easier to see if it wasn't black too.

Hi Hugo - I've attached a screenshot. This is when I drill into Education -> Mathematics and hover my mouse over the Education trail up top. Note that Education only appears on hover and to the left of it should be "All Applications" but it is black font on a black background.

The application launcher has undergone a lot of changes since this report was opened and I'm not seeing this issue in it now. Let us know if that's not the case.
