gEDA-bug: [Bug 799926] Re: gschem grid barely visible with lightbg theme

@DJ: 
1) The color of the tool bar and status bar is set by the GTK color theme. If you have it at #ffffff, that is quite unusual Almost all themes supplied in distros put various shades of grey in this property.

2) If you are so keen on barely visible grid lines, how come, they are
much more pronounced in gschem-colormap-darkbg?

3) If you have your desktop set up in a way that precludes #ffffff, this
is your personal choice. However, the default settings by the most
popular distros are different. Yes, this is different from 10 years in
the past. and yes, there is a reason to it. Just do a fresh install of
ubuntu, suse, debian or fedora in a virtual machine of and see for
yourself.

@all:
If you want gschem to be the oddball application on a modern gnome desktop, so be it. Just don't expect me to be happy with it. Also, don't expect me to be happy with the way, this bugreport was handled -- in particular the  two months of silence until I started nagging.

Title:
  gschem grid barely visible with lightbg theme

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The grid lines of gschem are pretty low key with the current gschem-
  colormap-lightbg. This depends of course on the contrast and
  brightness settings of the monitor. However, grid lines are hardly
  visible on four of five TFT monitors I have access to, when settings
  are in default position. There is almost no difference visible between
  minor and major grid lines.

  Find attached a patch to the lightbg color profile for slightly more
  pronounced grid lines.
