my question is: what does the user mostly want? in my eyes, the "normal" use case is to change the opacity of the background (and eventually the border) but keep the opacity of the text at 100%. personally, i think that this is the workflow that scribus should support by default. if the user wants a different behavior, he should create two items: a text frame and a shape behind it, where he can individually control the opacity. when importing old documents, scribus will have to create the background shape to keep for compatibility reasons. |
|
I agree, but report is about blue mark of selected text. Text with low opacity is not a common use case, but sometimes can be used (for "watermarks" for example) and selecting it can be hard, as selection also has same low opacity. In fact I was reporting that only to focusing on fact, that opacity of brush and pen is not saved and not restored by ScPainter. IMO should be. |
|
ah, ooops... i'll open another ticket, for my request... |
|
Hey @PeterBenedek I don't think I can reproduce the original issue. Here is how I reproduced: 1) Create text box 2) add sample text 3) Highlight sample text 4) Text Palette > Colors & Effects > Black > Change Saturation to 10% Result: Opacity should change 5) Highlight text Result: I don't see that the selected/highlighted text color has changed when I've highlighted it. |
|
Test: r21654 It seems, I can't reproduce this. |
|
@ale when you have a moment, please weigh in on this ticket. Thanks! |
|
the problem is still there. |
|
Looks fine to me, see screenshot |
|

|
this is what i see on mac with 1.5.2. not really usable. it matches what i saw on linux, with a somehow current 1.5.3... |
|
Why are you testing with 1.5.2? you need to test with the 1.5.3.svn snapshots. |
|
@ale please test with osx nightly: https://sourceforge.net/projects/scribus/files/scribus-svn/1.5.3.svn/Scribus15xNightly-20161213-r21649.dmg/download |
|
with the trunk there is an "ugly" box around each letter (at least on mac, i guess also on linux iirc). once that box is not there anymore, the highlighting would be very very light.. and i hope that the box won't stick... |
|
@ale screenshot of what you are reporting in 0011099:0043110 please? |
|
|
|
et voilĂ ! |
|
@ale thanks. Can you please write a step-by-step way to reproduce. I can't seem to be able to so perhaps I missing something. |
|
@kunda, this is a ticket about opacity... just pull down the frame's opacity and you'll see it :-) (and, no, color saturation has little or nothing to do with opacity. you have to go to the transparency tab!) |
