Glow effect in "Total Queries" box result in blurry text. #3011

Closed rdwebdesign closed 2 months ago

rdwebdesign commented 4 months ago

The glow effect (used when the Total Queries value is updated) creates a blurry effect, specially in dark themes.

glow

This is not very user friendly for users with some kind of visual impairment or anything different than a perfect vision (and almost nobody has perfect vision).

Suggestions:

  1. Remove the effect from "High Contrast" and "High Contrast Dark" themes;
  2. Change the color effect to some dark color;
  3. Replace this effect by some other effect;
  4. Remove the effect from every theme;
  5. other options?

The issue affects all themes (v5 and v6).

Following the KISS principle...

Remove the effect from every theme;

I would vote this one. It doesn't really add an awful lot

Just to make sure that removing the effect is our best option, I tested using a different effect (changing the color of the text), but it doesn't look good if I use a color that is too contrasting to the original.

This is the result using "White to Black to White": white to black

It looks very disturbing, specially considering accessibility.

I will completely remove the glow effect.
