Bug Description

The font color of selected insensitive treeview rows should be a shade of grey. Currently it is black. So there is no visual difference between an insensitive and a sensitive row.

This bug is caused by the new ubuntu theme. It does not appear using the default clearlooks theme.

Thanks for reporting,

Sebastian

It would be very helpful if someone could find or create an easier testcase.

a small pyton/gtk script that provides a treeview and can switch its sensitive property

Thanks. I can't get this to work correctly with any theme, the only difference with Clearlooks and other themes is that they use a white text color instead of black. The only logical explaination I can think of is that Gtk doesn't properly set the widget state. It should be GTK_STATE_INSENSITIVE, while it's probably still GTK_STATE_SELECTED.

So should we reassigne this bug to gtk?

Thank you for your bug. Could you argue on why the selection should not be displayed? That looks like a design decision to me and one way doesn't seem to be wronger than the other

What kind of information do you still need?

It is not about what should be shown. The font color of selected insensitive treeview rows should be a shade of grey. Currently it is black. So there is no visual difference between an insensitive and a sensitive row.
