I am struggling with how to describe this problem. So, it may be this is a duplicate of another already answered question, but I just haven’t figured out the correct search terms. So far my searching has been unsuccessful.



Ubuntu 17.10 (64 bit), gnome 3.26.2.


Since upgrading to 17.10, I have noticed that in SOME applications the dropdown menus are unreadable because the text and the background color are nearly the same, there is not enough contrast. The attached photo shows what I am trying to describe. (I used Openshot 1.4.3 below as an example, but this also happens on some other applications - e.g., Pinta 3.26.1.)



I don’t know how to fix this.


What causes this? How do I fix this?

If this is a graphical glitch I would try to log out and log in again after switching the session to Xorg instead of Wayland from the display manager. Might solve the problem.
