[Bug 1729558] [NEW] In Java apps like Netbeans, dark menu bars don't look good for disabled elements

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

This fix, #961679, specifically Ambiance/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:346
(http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-art-pkg/ubuntu-
themes/trunk/revision/583), makes disabled elements in menus look
terrible.

Unfortunately I'm not aware of an easy way to get screenshots of open
menus, so hopefully these attached phone pictures of Netbeans are enough
to illustrate the issue.

As you can see it is hard to tell the difference between what is
disabled and what isn't, and the disabled items look fuzzy (easier to
observe on monitor).

I really don't see the issue with lighter menus, but if they must stay
dark then the readability / contrast of disabled items needs to be
fixed.

Thanks
