Eclipse Community ForumsBlack text on a black background

Javadoc and other popup windows use black text and black background. No amount of fiddling with colour schemes aseems to fix this.
Google searches seem to indicate this is a persistant bug that hasn't been properly addressed for some time - much wringing of hands, excuse making and blaming the OS etc.
Is there a solution I've missed? It's doesn't seem like a massivly complex issue and seriously affects usability.]]>pointer null2017-03-08T14:26:39-00:00Re: Black text on a black background

Another option is to switch theme of the Mate desktop to some which uses light background and black text for tooltips (the colours which casues problems). However for me Eclipse performs better with GTK2 on similar system (Ubuntu 16 LTS, Mate, Neon.1 (Spring Tool Suite 3.8.2)).]]>martin madera2017-03-24T21:51:34-00:00
