Colours after update

[PeGoe]

The colours of the words "Current repository, Current branch, Last fetched..." are difficult for me to read.

Please give the option to view the UI as before.

@PeGoe thanks for the feedback!

I've lifted the screenshot out of the document to make this easier to follow:

Hi @PeGoe, thanks for the issue! This seems unexpected and we haven't seen it elsewhere. Would you mind filling out the template so we can understand what version and OS and such you're using and we can try to reproduce? I'm updating your original comment with the template.

@PeGoe two other things I'd like to learn more about that aren't covered in the template:

• Can you provide a better screenshot of the app? You can drag-and-drop images when making a comment to upload them.
• Are there any customizations that you have to the default Desktop themes? The purple colour on the commit button is very interesting, and I want to know more about what might be causing that...

Hi Brendan, my version is 1.6.3 Thank you for your quick answer. Greetings Peter Göbel

@PeGoe none of the attachments made it through. Are you able try again commenting directly on GitHub?

@PeGoe do you have a color profile or color correction enabled for that monitor? The reason I ask is that I was able to emulate your screenshot fairly closely by taking the default screenshot of the app and tweaking the hue and saturation in an image editor.

You'll also see that the text looks blurry up close as a result:

This isn't a 100% satisfactory answer, because some parts of your screenshot (which look like images) are not affected by this:

I was able to find this PR electron/electron#15898 which talks more about this limitation that affects Chromium and lets Electron apps opt-out of the default behaviour, but it hasn't been backported to the current version of Electron that we are using currently.
