Hi,

The most recent snapshot version built on Linux x86-64, Arm32, and Arm64 all have funny black blocks in the UI of Dr Racket.

While this display was captured from a MacOS X11 server it is the same on the Linux X11 servers as well as directly on the console screen.

Thanks.

This looks to me like racket believes the OS is in dark mode but it really isn't. Does this program produce true or false?

#lang racket
(require mrlib/panel-wob)
(white-on-black-panel-scheme?)

And I should have added that that function's result is based on a luminance computation of this function:


and the foreground one. So if there is some way you're controlling those that defeats that computation, that might explain why you're getting the bad colors.

Thanks.  Since I do this often at night I thought the same at first.  I get the same during daytime.

The program produces #f

My guess (will investigate) is that I broke things with this commit:

Hi,

I think that the label foreground and background colours are ok.

#lang racket
(require racket/gui/base)
(define bg (get-label-background-color))
(define fg (get-label-foreground-color))


Produces

> (send bg red)
255
> (send bg green)
255
> (send bg blue)
255
> (send fg red)
0
> (send fg green)
0
> (send fg blue)
0
>

which is bg white, fg black, right?

cheers

bruce

Right -- looks like I was barking up the wrong herring.
