When using the Javadoc code completion module, the popup window uses the wrong text color for selected entries. It does change the background for the selected entry to dark blue, but the text stays black and is thus not readable.
Created attachment 31324 [details] Screenshot showing wrong selection color
What build are you using? The trunk builds currently do not contain the javadoc CC so this seems as an experimental functionality. Anyway the CC SPI allows to determine the fact that the item is selected and use the appropriate color - see CompletionItem.render() in editor/completion so the completion's implementor should fix that. Closing as invalid please reopen if necessary.
I'm using the current daily Dev builds and then I download the Javadoc CC module from the development update center. So where do I report an error like that then, if this is set to invalid?
I see. The proper category for this should likely be 3dparty/other and possibly notify the author of the module about the issue. Reopening.
Just one more note: this seems to be related to the "Classic Windows look". When using the XP look, the selection color is a bit lighter, so the text is readable. With the classic look on XP or on Windows 2000, the highlighted text is not visible.
