Description Morten Welinder 2014-04-11 00:39:25 UTC
1. New Gnumeric
--> Observe that column/row names are black, except the selected which is red.

2. Load file, for example by picking a recent file.
--> Observe that column/row names are white, except the selected which is red.

...on *some* machines.  No valgrind events.
Comment 1 Morten Welinder 2014-04-11 00:48:13 UTC
I have added debug code for this.  Turn on with GNM_DEBUG=item-bar-style
The problem exhibits itself just by starting Gnumeric.

On my home machine I don't see the problem at all.  Not with gtk+ 3.8.?,
not with gtk+ 3.10.4, not with gtk+ 3.10.8.  Not with any choice of gtk
theme.  Not with the win32 build either (but I have seen a complaint that
someone else did see it a few months back).

I get the debug info:

Non-white item bar text
Non-white item bar text
Non-white item bar text
Non-white item bar text
Non-white item bar text
Non-white item bar text



On my work machine which has gtk+ 3.10.4 I always see the problem.  I'll
add the exact output tomorrow, but it starts with "White item bar text".
We have no business ever getting white text there (unless something picks
a theme with actual white text set).

Comment 3 Jean Bréfort 2014-04-11 16:00:44 UTC
Just seen that it does not happen from me if I first open a file from the command line, the file manager, or another program. It seems to just happen if we first open gnumeric with an empty new document.
Comment 4 Morten Welinder 2014-04-11 16:04:49 UTC
I believe this is fixed now.  Please confirm.

Specifically I believe the problem was that when we replace a pristine
workbook with a new one, we were getting the colours while the gui was
insensitive.
Comment 5 Jean Bréfort 2014-04-11 16:26:41 UTC
Confirmed fixed.
Comment 6 Morten Welinder 2014-04-11 16:36:40 UTC
This problem has been fixed in our software repository. The fix will go into the next software release. Thank you for your bug report.
