[Bug 967282] Re: cairo clock plug-in icon text gets lost against a matching background

 

I... think I'd disagree with you on the line width, unless that's a '1
screen pixel' border, regardless of scaling. I think partially sighted
folks would also prefer to have the option to make the border more
substantial: if you can't focus properly, a thin border doesn't help
distinguish white ink from white paper.

I've just upgraded to the latest Ubuntu - I presume this patch will
appear there shortly?

Cheers.

Title:
  cairo clock plug-in icon text gets lost against a matching background

Status in Cairo-Dock: Plug-ins:
  New

Bug description:
  If I set the icon's text colour to any colour, a window of the
  matching colour behind it makes the text invisible.

  I can workaround by setting a background picture for the icon, but
  that's no fun.

  I wrote a working fix, simply adding a configurable outline to the
  text: any colour and sensible widths.

  The patch is a git patch (sorry), and doesn't include the
  CMakeLists.txt VERSION_CLOCK bump.

  ~/src/cairo-dock-plug-ins-2.4.0~2.1
