1962978 - Styling for History window is borked in dark theme

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Firefox :: Theme, defect)

Description

[8vn27i9bc]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:137.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/137.0

Steps to reproduce:

Pick the Dark theme. Open the History window ("Manage History").

Actual results:

Even row background color seems to be inherited from the default light theme. All other styling seems to work, rendering the text light thus making it impossible to read every other line.

Expected results:

Even rows should have a dark background when using the dark theme.

Can you provide a screenshot? Is that the default dark theme?

Comment 2

[BugBot [:suhaib / :marco/ :calixte]]

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Theme' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Screenshot of the reported problem. Worth noting is the text color in the search bar which is also not visible (it should say "bugzilla").

I assume someone would have reported this type of problem at this point, so I wonder if it's something else on your system.

Does it work if you start Firefox in Troubleshoot mode?

No, the problem persists in Troubleshoot Mode.

I can't seem to reproduce this in Firefox 138 on Ubuntu.

Regardless, if someone can still reproduce this in the latest release as well as Nightly, a regression range might be helpful.

Emilio, does this ring a bell? It reminds me of bug 1866022 but that was fixed a pretty long time ago.
