ID 341876 - Links in help popups appear with blue text on a dark gray background, making them very hard to read

Follow

Problem summary:

Links in help text that is shown for parameters or attributes when clicking the Help button appear in blue text, making them very hard to read with the dark gray background color.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Execute the following snippet of code in a Python tab:
    • 
      groupNode = NodegraphAPI.CreateNode('Group', NodegraphAPI.GetRootNode())myNumberParameter = groupNode.getParameters().createChildNumber('myNumber', 0)myNumberParameter.setHintString('{"help": "<a href=\'http://www.example.com\'>Link</a>"}')NodegraphAPI.SetNodeEdited(groupNode, True, True)
  2. Click the Help button (?) for the myNumber parameter to open its help popup.

Expected behaviour:

The link in the help popup appears in a color that allows users to read its text with ease.

Actual behaviour:

The link in the help popup appears in blue, making the text really hard to read.

Workaround:

Add the following lines to $KATANA_ROOT/docs/resources/stylesheets/katana_default.css:
