Description Tod Creasey CLA 2002-03-20 11:39:10 EST
If your text is set to White and your backgrounds black (like in Hight Contrast 
Black) the title of any of the pages in the plugin.xml editor is hidden in the 
white background at the top. Also if the banner font is large the text 
overshoots the title area. 

The title area size should be calculated based on the fonts used.

STEPS
1) Set your Banner font very large (say 24 points) in the Font Preference Page
2) Set your Windows properties to use High Constrast Black
3) Open a plugin.xml. The Text overshoots the title area and the part in the 
title area is not readable.

Steps should have you change the Header font to replicate the size issue

Colour problem should be fixed for 2.0.
The sizing issue is less critical.
Comment 3 Dejan Glozic CLA 2002-04-17 14:05:05 EDT
Color problem is handled by not drawing the banner image if the background is 
not white (it was created for white background and looks bad on anything else).

Size issue is related to the fact that PDE is 'misusing' banner font in places 
where a bold version of the default font is required. This works well in the 
default case but falls appart for when banner is made very large.
Banner usage will be dealt with in a separate bug.

Setting header font to large works well in all cases.
