Note

  • When the user sets a High Contrast Theme in Windows and then triggers the Select Translations panel, he will notice that the colors don't properly apply to the panel.

Found in

  • Nightly v127.0a1

Affected versions

  • Nightly v127.0a1

Tested platforms

  • Affected platforms: Windows 10/11
  • Unaffected platforms: MacOS, Ubuntu

Steps to reproduce

  1. Enable High Contrast Theme on Windows
  2. Open a webpage that is displayed in a different language than the browser's.
  3. Open the context menu on a selection of text or on a link.
  4. Select the Translate option.
  5. Observe the panel's colors.

Expected result

  • The selected High Contrast Theme colors properly apply to the panel.

Actual result

  • The selected High Contrast Theme colors do not apply to the panel.

Regression range

  • This is not a regression.

Additional notes

  • This issue is more visible in the case of the High Contrast 1, High Contrast 2 Themes, but it also occurs for the High Contrast White and High Contrast Black Themes as there should be more contrast than it has by default.

It seems that there were global HCM changes that affected other panels and were triggered by the bug 1878919 (which was not expected, AFAIK). I'll be investigating it. Thank you for reporting!
