Highlighted entry in dropdown menu.

In a highlighted dropdown element, the second line of text (the URL) is hard to see because the contrast because of the grey color of the text and the blue background.

Are you really using 3.18? I thought we fixed this for 3.18. :/ I know it's broken in master again due to theme changes....
Comment 2 Julián Unrrein 2015-10-27 20:05:19 UTC 
Running "epiphany --version" in console outputs "Web 3.18.0".

I'm using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed by the way.
Comment 3 Julián Unrrein 2015-10-27 20:35:47 UTC 
Also using Gtk 3.18.1.
Comment 4 Michael Catanzaro 2016-06-13 23:49:16 UTC 
This one's fixed.

I'm sorry if it's bad practice to comment on closed reports, but this bug isn't fixed in Epiphany 3.20.3. See attachment.

No, that's fine.

It should really use white text rather than dark gray. In 3.18 and prior it used light gray, which was even worse to read.

This is not a simple fix as we have to dig into GdTwoLinesRenderer. There are hardcoded color values there, which is wrong, but apparently we don't get reasonable theme colors from GTK+ anymore.
Comment 9 Jan-Michael Brummer 2018-02-12 18:14:07 UTC 
Within the current version the second line is readable. Is there anything else to do?
Comment 10 Michael Catanzaro 2018-02-12 23:37:40 UTC 
I don't remember when or how this was fixed, or whether it was done by me or by somebody else, but yes the text is obviously much more readable now than it used to be.
