[yast-devel][installation] Next button background color looks wrong (too light)
15.4 Alpha This has been going on too many releases to remember when it started. The FG/BG contrast on the (active) Next button is low. The BG color seems lighter than the what appears should be the matching color elsewhere. It might not seem so if only the FG was #FFF or #000 instead of gray. It seems as if the Next button is colored to indicate something else needs to be done before it can be selected to proceed. The other buttons' dark gray on light gray seems could stand to have improved contrast too. More contrast should help make up for fuzziness on lower resolution screens. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

Hi Felix, I have been checking this and the color for the text of the active button is almost white: #f6f6f6 [1] and it is there for ~4 years now [2] Changing it to #fff (white) or #000 (black) does not make too much difference in my opinion. See [3]

Are you referring to the highlight in buttons when they get the focus? I mean, the small, blue?, semi-transparent, and dot-bordered rectangle wrapping the text. After doing some tests, I could check that it is somehow influencing in the text contrast of the active and focused button[4]. However, I think it is not changing it drastically, and I wouldn't say that the button looks blocked or waiting until something else is done. Anyway, I tried to get rid of it by setting the "outline:" QSS property to "none" for "QPushButton:focus, QPushButton:focus:default" QSS rules[5]. It makes the job, but it is not an option since it's dropping an important aid to know which button has the focus (not all of them gets green). See [6][7] So, at this point I can't help much more, but at least there are some hints for others to play around. Nevertheless, I encourage you to either, fill a bug report in https://bugzilla.opensuse.org or an issue in https://github.com/openSUSE/branding for reaching out more and/or different audience.
