paths renamed colour poor - Alan Lacey - 08-12-2018
Gimp 2.10.4 running in Ubuntu 18.4
When I change the name of a path the new name appears in a very dark colour that is almost illedgeible on my dark theme. The original font colour is fine, just the rename. Is there a way of changing this? I can't see anything in the prefs or mentioned in the config file.
Thanks

Hate those dark themes
Looks like a bug in the theme. Reproducing the effect.
Five screenshots in one, https://i.imgur.com/7eoK2Ug.jpg
1. The original path
2. Renamed path, newname barely visible.
3. You can see it if you make the main Gimp window inactive. That might mean something to a themes guru.
4. You can get it back with some editing on the canvas.
5. Toggled the path visibility on and the text returned to barely visible. Needed more editing on the canvas to get it back.

Perfectly possible to change the theme to make it more readable:
[attachment=2021]
The definition in the Theme gtkrc file is here:
Code:
style "gimp-default-style" = "gimp-colours-default-style"
{
# font_name = "Sans 11"
fg[NORMAL] = @clr1
fg[PRELIGHT] = @clr2
fg[ACTIVE] = @clr2
fg[SELECTED] = @clr1
fg[INSENSITIVE] = @clr3
bg[NORMAL] = @clr9
bg[PRELIGHT] = @clr7
bg[ACTIVE] = @clr4
bg[SELECTED] = @clr5
bg[INSENSITIVE] = @clr5
base[NORMAL] = @clrA
base[PRELIGHT] = @clr7
base[ACTIVE] = @clr7
base[SELECTED] = @clr1
base[INSENSITIVE] = @clr8
text[NORMAL] = @clr1
text[PRELIGHT] = @clr1
text[ACTIVE] = @clr1
text[SELECTED] = @clr7
text[INSENSITIVE] = @clr9If you change the definition for text[SELECTED], you will get the new colour for ALL selected text
To illustrate, I set it to text[SELECTED] = "yellow" for the example above.
You will probably have to copy and re-name the supplied theme to your personal theme directory before editing.
