Comment boxes - invisible on dark backgrounds #186

This is to follow up on a question/answer I saw on the Epic Marketplace, but I couldn't find the matching issue here.

When the graph background is dark, comment boxes seem fully transparent - there seems to be no visible background and no clear edge to the comment. This leads to some UI issues with selecting and dragging operations.

Screenshot attached.

This can be overridden on a comment-by-comment basis, but it would be cleaner and increase the awesomeness of the plugin if this could be updated or options provided to set default comment colors.

Hum, I see, it seems like it does have a background, but it's almost completely transparent 🤔...

I'll check how to fix that, sorry for the inconvenience 😕

It's really not that much of a problem, it's just a nice-to-have.

Thanks!

Sorry bad news @indiependentStudio 😕

So, the problem is that the alpha of the comment background is hard coded. It's pretty low, so it's perfect for light colors on dark background, but dark colors on dark background makes it almost invisible.

I suggest activating the "Keep default comment color" feature of Darker Nodes if you want to keep the default whitish color. (It's under Edit/Editor Preferences/Darker Nodes)

Hope it's okay 😕
