https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=85736 Opened by carniz@spray.se (Mikael Carneholm) on 2003-03-06 13:26 Description of problem: If the panel background is changed the applets should follow as well (and paint their backgrounds using panel->getBgColor(), or whatever function the panel has for interfacing with other components), making the panel and it's applets look more consistent. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.2.0-3 Additional info: To ensure that text components (such as the clock) does not get hard to read if the panel background is f.eg. dark green, I believe it would be a good idea for the applets with text labels to average the pixels in the desktop background that lies behind the applet, and draw the text in white if (background_average_value < 128) and black if (background_average_value >= 128).
Setting priority->high ("cosmetic bug of high visibility"; feel free to mark back down if this is too high a level), and adding GNOMEVER2.2 and bugsquad keywords. Is this related to bug 107617?
