Description Dick Gevers 2014-07-05 10:49:57 CEST

Description of problem:

During installation, where the background is supposed to be white all over, I see alternating white and pink lines, as in a spreadsheet, but in bad taste. Not nice looking.

For example language choice and keyboard choice are bad.

But the title bar also has some pinl shading, which I believe is not appropriate.

I will attach a screenshot.

Reproducible:

The top bar with the word "installing" is vaguely pink all the way from left to right. This looks awkward.

Also the area just below (between 'installing' and the package details) should be uniformly and evenly grey. It is not: there are horizontal bars where the colour varies. Approximately five different shades can be distinguished from top to botton, stretching all the way from left to right.

Please disregard the blurring, this is just unsharpness of the camera.

I haven't noticed it in the white backgrounds of text fields now with alpha2, but it is still quite apparent in the grey areas of the GUI. See new screenshot made with built in tool (F2).

IMHO the grey should be monochromatically grey. If it has to be in multicoloured hues, then please improve the artistic result ;)
