Hi,
This is really weird, I've never seen this before. Try the following:
- Make a backup of the original core-standard.qss file (you already have done this, well done
)
- Open the core-standard.qss file with a plain text editor, preferably a good code editor such as KWrite or Kate, or PixInsight's Script Editor (yes, you can modify the file while PixInsight is running; the core style sheet is only parsed upon application startup).
- Go to line number 26. The original code is:
* {
font-family: "<core_sans_font>", DejaVu Sans, Open Sans;
@platform x11 osx {
font-size: 9pt;
}
@platform windows {
font-size: 8pt;
}
}- Change it to:
* {
font-family: "<core_sans_font>", DejaVu Sans, Open Sans;
@platform x11 osx {
font-size: 9pt;
color: black;
}
@platform windows {
font-size: 8pt;
}
}
Note the new CSS rule "color: black" inserted in line 30.
- Save the file and launch PixInsight.
This change is risky, in the sense that it will force the default color for all interface elements. Let's see if this works correctly on your KDE installation. If you detect bad side effects after doing this change (e.g., undesirable color changes for non-text elements), we'll refine it by modifying specific controls. If we find a way to fix this problem for you, I'll try to replicate it on a virtual machine, and will release it as an official update.
