[SOLVED] MicroTiny fixed (dark bck colors theme) in 1.10.3?

The announcement says this annoying issue is fixed, but I can't see any change after upgrading to 1.10.3. MicroTiny settings panel is still the same, so I don't see a way to configure it so that light-colored text (theme setup) is visible in the WYSIWYG editor.
Any tips?

I did not expressed myself clearly.
MicroTiny's (which is a CORE module) editing area is white. If a site's theme uses light-colored text, it is, naturally, (almost) invisible in the editor. There is no way to configure editor's background color and it is announced that this issue is resolved in the 1.10.3 version. BUT, as far as I'm concerned, nothing is changed. MicroTiny is still the same, and I'm still struggling when editing the content of some websites.
Is this issue really fixed, and if it is - how can I benefit from that?

Dark? Mine is white, same as the letters, so I have trouble editing content... I haven't found any parameter that could change background color of the editor. You?

Is editor's background color same as the site's bck color? What color is your text?

Yes the same background color.
Here's is a tip : in my css i done this for the moment to force the MicroTiny styles with my colors :
(at the end of my css)
#tinymce {
color: #888;
background-color: #fff;
}

No, it didn't work... I've tried changing the theme's CSS (background-color) also, didn't work. It's really frustrating...

MicroTiny takes your body {color: #000; background: #fff;} so you either do not have a color set for body or have same color, which well, doesn't make sense, neither doesn't a slight shade of background color make sense to use as font color.

True, body bck color wasn't set because I was using an image for that. But now I've set it to
#012F43 and text color is
#e5e5e4 (well, quite bright
).
I've cleared the cache on both, server and browser, and even refreshed the page - but it's still the same.

Is background image same as text color? Is there a sample online somehwere?
MicroTiny is caching settings, but yeah you should see a difference after clearing cache.

No, bck image is a little bit brighter than bck color. But I don't see how can a bck image affect the MicroT... Ah...
"Let it be..."

I was asking because if you use background image, then MT will display background image, so if background image is same or similar color of text defined for body you will not see the text.

It will display a background image?! Well, if I may say - it's a very poor solution. For example, let's consider this: I have one bck image for the
body element (plus, now, a bck color), and another for the
#wrapper div, as it is case on
this simple site. Which color/image will MT consider?

First:
Code: Select all
body, div, h1, h2, h3, h4, p, ul, ol, li, dl, dt, dd, img, form, fieldset, blockquote {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
border: 0px;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
color: #e5e5e4;
}
body {
background: url(uploads/vis_tema/images/bg.gif) #012F43;
}
HEX code should be first followed by background image. If i test this i see light grey text with dark blue background color (when done correct #012F43 url(uploads/vis_tema/images/bg.gif);)
Second:
You are using {stylesheet} (from what i can say after viewing at your sourcecode) so is this a 1.10.x site, did you hack stylesheet to work with 1.10.x.
I tested MT with {cms_stylesheet}, if and how it works with old, unsupported {stylesheet} tag, do not ask me.
