I eventually plan to switch colouring over to using the current theme colouring scheme as soon as I figure out how to do that. Apparently some people would prefer black backgrounds because the colour doesn't bleed. I'm not 100% sure what bleed means but I guess the point is that colour blind people have special needs that we shouldn't be imposing on with our own colouring scheme. So this will change. I finally did switch over to style based background colors and the trace color is now based on the foreground color. As for marker/observer colors, I have found that red, blue, green, and orange seem to be distinguishable foreground colors. I have set these as the colors to use for observers. These (as well as white, black and yellow) are defined by the Gdk Color class. We can always create more colors with different RGB values. Yellow does not seem to work for most backgrounds (except black). I will commit this soon and wait for feedback. |
