[Gambas-user] Pale markers under Ubuntu Mate

[Cedron Dawg]

Have you tried installing the Gambas' Qt5 components?  I recently upgraded to Linux Mint 19 Mate and had all sorts of display problems, including the too faint highlight bars.  After installing the Qt5 components, everything is looking much better meaning the IDE and my programs.

I don't know the answer Rolf, but I do "feel your pain". It seems to me 
that Mate desktop over the last 3-4 months has begun to tell me how I 
should be living my life so to speak.
I am fairly sure that I have seen the same effects, both within and 
external to Gambas. I have tried the theme change prayer and other more 
arcane incantations but it does seem that sometimes Mate tends to think 
that "an extremely very light shade of grey/blue" is a suitable highlight.
ymmv.
Sometimes I am tempted to go back to KDE. No, disregard that.
:-(
