Bug ID: 435309
Summary: 3b06b6f22 makes selection near invisible with some
foreground/background color combinations
Product: konsole
Version: master
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: konsole-de...@kde.org

near-invisible selection
See the attached screenshots.
Unfortunately, after 3b06b6f22 (blend foreground/background instead of using
reverse video for selection), with some foreground/background combinations the
selection is now very close to invisible.
Reasonably standard Linux color-scheme here, so normally black background with
white text, which is fine. But take a look at the attached gentoo portage
package manager screenshots (the tail end of an emerge --ask --empty-tree
konsole). Without that commit reverted the color-coded white text on blue
background of the package names makes the selection near invisible.
The problem is that I tend to use selection as a way to mark my place, say when
I have the kde live-git package update list displayed in one konsole window,
while checking git logs for various packages in another konsole window. When
there's well over a screen full of package updates, I'll double-click-select a
package near where I am in the list so I can easily find it and pick out the
next git log I want to run.
Obviously, if I'm using selection as a marker and I can't see where that
selection-marker is at a glance, it rather defeats the purpose.
