Re: Selection highlighting changes.

 

Oh, that's right. We had been taking the color from system preferences but this did not show up correctly on schematic sheets that were not the system window color. Allowing for customization fixes this but the coloring is very light. It apparently looks correct on Mac but is very washed out under GTK3. I've added a conditional for the defaults that sets GTK/MSW values to the ones that seem appropriate on GTK3. We may want an additional default value for MSW if it similarly appears off.

The colour is in Preferences now; see if it’s just too washed out on

I'm working on one (slowly) but it hasn't been pushed. GTK3 in the master branch looks normal for me.

Does it look the same in OpenGL and Cairo?

Was there a change recently to the selection highlighting in Eeschema?
I can barely see any difference between the selected and unselected
objects. If there has not been changes then something needs to be done about the highlighting on gtk3 builds on linux. I thought I would check
before I filed a bug report.
Cheers,
