Gradient on large text fields
Last modified: 2015-12-14 22:26:56 UTC
Created attachment 317241 [details] screenshot Most likely a WebKitGTK bug; there is a gradient in the background of large text fields. They should probably be yellowish like the other editable fields.
It's rendered by WebKit indeed, in WebCore::RenderThemeGtk::paintTextField, using gtk_render_background. That's simply the gradient that Adwaita draws for a GtkEntry. Why do you expect it to be yellow? If Bugzilla specifies in CSS that the field should be yellow, then that would be a WebKit bug; otherwise I'd say this is expected.

Perhaps it should not be yellow, but the "Description" field would be a GtkTextView in GTK parlance, not a GtkEntry. So it should be rendered as such and have e.g. a plain background instead of the background image gradient.
