I downgraded to R 2.13 and rkward 0.5.6. The function argument hints are
now readable (black on yellow background). I am attaching a screenshot of
rkward 0.5.6. I will try the daily build later today.
And one more thing just to clarify, the function/variable code-completion
were always readable. Only the function argument hints were unreadable.
Thanks

Hm. I just don't get it.
Do you recall which colors the function argument hints had before the
upgrade?
If you are _not_ yet using R 2.14.0, could you try downgrading RKWard to
0.5.6 for a minute, in order to test whether the problem was introduced
with RKWard 0.5.7, or with some other update in Ubuntu 11.10.
Anyway, I have also tried another thing in SVN. Could you please test
whether that helps (should be available in our daily builds _tomorrow_:

Thanks!

Yes, I have been using rkward before. This problem started after upgrading
to Ubuntu 11.10 and rkward 0.5.7

Ok, thanks.
One more follow-up question: Have you been using RKWard before version
0.5.7? If so, did you experience this problem, earlier?
Regards

It does not seem to be the same problem as tooltips in other KDE
applications work fine.(I tried Kate). I tried the workaround and it did
not help. The tooltips in workspace window work fine. Its only function
hints in Console and Editor that are not working.
Three screenshots are attached

Possibly. Could you please check, whether this appears to be the same issue
(thread includes a workaround):
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9879841&posted=1#post9879841
In case that is not it: What about other tooltips? E.g. the ones in the
"Workspace" window. Do these display correctly?

Thanks for the reply. I checked systemsettings. The colors do not match.
MAy be it is not pulling the colors from the KDE settings. However I am
running Rkward on Ubuntru with Gnome/Unity. Can this be causing the
problem?

Message:
Thanks for your detailed report. Function argument hints were recently
fixed to use the system-wide settings for tooltip foreground and background
colors. Thus, I suspect the problem is in a bad setting for tooltip colors.
Go to the KDE system settings (should be available by running
'systemsettings' in a console), open page Common Appearance and
Behavior->Application Appearance->Colors->Colors, and check the settings
for Tooltip Background / Text.
Please let us know, whether these match or do not match the color of the
argument hints in RKWard.
Regards
Thomas
