¡Hola y'all!

Happy 🌮 Thursday!

Seems like when selecting text in the Awesome bar now the contrast is not great.

¡Gracias!
Alex

came across this bug today when testing nightly 94 on windows 10
It shows the same when i enable the search bar in toolbar.

Nightly is affected.
Beta93 and Release 92.0.1 are not

thanks for opening it.

For my own reference this is what I came up with to unblend the semi-transparent highlight color:

function unblendChannel(bg, fg, targetAlpha) {
  return (fg * 255 - bg * (255 - targetAlpha)) / targetAlpha 
}
Assignee: nobody → emilio

This does the same as Android and macOS (using a semi-transparent
highlight background, and currentColor for the foreground).

This is really sort of a theming issue (where the theme
mixes system colors with theme colors).

But leaving the existing selection color is prettier
even in the dark theme, so let's do that.
