greets!

Nik had a color problem in konqueror, I have one in VLC. this is in a
variant of Trinity called q4os running Buster and VLC 3.0.10.

if I open 'multiple files' menu and add video files, the line for the
first file is legible, the next line is black (not 'blank' but black)
and this alternates.

in fact a similar phenomenon occurs if I go to Tools --> Preferences
--> Show Settings (All).

here I get the alternating readable/black line but if I click on the
black line it's readable but as a white font against a blue
background.

I am using the default skin; other skins don't help. no other
application I'm using shows these symptoms.

there are probably questions to answer about the display manager and
so on but I can't anticipate them so I await them or advice.

thank you!


Hi!

VLC uses GTK, you can play around with the settings using
lxappearance. But you might need to install gnome/gtk themes, too.

ok, wasn't sure if vlc was gtk; loaded up lxappearance but nothing of
clear (to me) relevance, experimenting so far hasn't helped. I
probably need to log out and in.

I'll look around in the gtk config files too.

flying blind. good tip though - gtk, thank you.

Can you send a screenshot?

Nik

yes, not the best resolution but it's not art:

here is the window for 'multiple files' selection:

here is the window for 'advanced preferences':
<https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aVkgKLlLPF8ajxeTh_DeFPDHgco_E3yU/view?usp=sharing>

note how in the 'advanced preferences' window 'Network Sync' has been selected yielding white font against blue background.
