gnome panel 3.2 - I am not able to see clock and date well

Hello all,

I am using Gnome in fallback -mode. I upgraded my gnome-panel to version 3.2 and after upgrading I am not able to see date and time information well. This information have shown a dark grey color, which is very difficult to see because background is black. If I put my mouse cursor on the time panel I am able to see infromation because background changes from black to white (timebox get activated). Is there any way to change font/foreground colour from grey to white? It is very irritating put mouse cursor on the date everytime when I want to see time.  I tried to downgrade panel back to 3.0 version, but after that I wasn't able to see panel at the all.

-Br, Marko

Looks like I am not a lonely wolf with this problem: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=691288

Maybe I just need to wait next version of gnome-panel

Strange here isn't anybody others at this site, who have this issue..

I got this issue too...
The bug tracker still says the issue is closed, not sure the developpers will notice it.

Me too. Downgrading Gnome to 3.0, deleting "~/.gnome2" and Gnome-related directories in "~/.config" changes nothing. Here is a screenshot: .

any of you actually reported upstream rather than adding useless comments like "i have this problem too"?

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

I am not aware of any way to report Gnome errors. Their website is useless.

it's fixed in git

in the mean time you can add
color: #FFFFFF;
after
ClockBox,
.gnome-panel-menu-bar {

in /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-3.0/gtk-widgets.css
