1066357 - [e10s] Some colors are wrong with e10s enabled and ui.use_native_colors = true

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Graphics, defect)

Description

[sebboh (use needinfo)]

Hello.  Today my copy of Nightly prompted me to enable E10S.

When I did so, I noticed that the spellchecking underline squiggle became black instead of red and selected text is black-on-black.

I selected "35 Branch" for Version on this bug, please update it if necessary.  I am on Nightly 35.0a1 (2014-09-11).

If you would like me to provide information about my graphics card or other things, please tell me how to collect that information or provide a link to a document that tells me how.

Thanks for testing, Dave. The best way to share information about your graphics card is to open Nightly's about:support page, then use the "Copy text to clipboard" button to copy and paste the info in the bug.

Attachment: Screenshot of text selection display problem

Here's a screenshot of this happening in 35.0a1 (2014-09-12).

Note the underlining on the tab title, that only happens when E10S is enabled, too.  But the text selection blackout is the big thing.

[Allison Naaktgeboren :ally]

Does this still reproduce for you on a new profile on e10s?

Comment 6

[sebboh (use needinfo)]

:ally, no, the issue disappears in a new profile on 36.0a1 (2014-11-03).

Fascinating!

...OK, I tracked it down to ui.use_native_colors = true.  The default value is false.

Using the default value seems fine; I will leave it like that.  I don't see anything wrong with my colors right now.  I am currently on Windows 7 with themes disabled.  (Previously I had them enabled, perhaps that is related?)

Cheers!
