...as well as the few remaining references to set_foreground_color(). These properties are not being used for rendering anymore, presumably because they completely mess up theming - assigning random white and gray backgrounds just doesn't work with dark themes. I've chosen to not replace most of the few remaining uses of this broken functionality with custom palette colors (the closest replacement is background_role) for now (except for Minesweeper where squares with mines are painted red again now), as no one has actually complained about them being broken, so it must look somewhat decent (some just look right anyway). :^) Examples of this are the taskbar buttons, which apparently had a DarkGray foreground color for minimized windows once - this has since been replaced with bold/regular font. Another one is the Profiler's ProfileTimelineWidget, which is supposed to have a white background - which it didn't have for quite some time, it's grey now (with the default theme, that is). Doesn't look bad either. |

SerenityOS
Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.
About
SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.
Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.
I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.
Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.
I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
