As pointed out under http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_messaging/topics/in_lightning_how_to_change_the_text_color_for_task_lists respectively this problem occurs, because they choose the MenuText color for tasks in calendar-tasks-tree.css, which is for dark menu themes white (or a light color).
To fix this, one should choose e.g. WindowText as color in the sections: .calendar-task-tree > treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(completed) .calendar-task-tree > treechildren::-moz-tree-cell-text(future) of calendar-tasks-tree.css. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/733578 Title: lightning's task-list picks wrong colors from gtk-theme -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
