Hi,

i'm using KDE 5.9.x under Ubuntu and tooltips of FFS do not use any color from my DE scheme/theme.
I would like to know if there is an option or is it a bug/usage issue with FFS and KDE plasma 5 ?

for example tooltips background should be dark and text white...but for an unknown reason it stays gray background and light grey text.... so it is unreadable.

Any idea what to do to solve that issue ?
FFS is developped under GTK+ or something else ?

thx.

FFS uses wxSYS_COLOUR_INFOTEXT and wxSYS_COLOUR_INFOBK for text and background color. If this doesn't give a readable color pair, then it's a wxWidgets bug:
