Feedback requested: Proposed contribution to increase read only legibility

Hi Megan and colleagues,

On May 21, Amy Wieliczka sent a proposed contribution to this list for review.  We've found the default styling for the read-only accounts is a problem for some people, so Amy did some nice work to make things easier to read.  We have had good feedback on this here at UC Berkeley and would like to contribute this change into the 3.2.3 release.

Please let us know if you see any problems with this approach.  The first screenshot below is the current styling.  The second one includes Amy's styling works.

Many thanks,
Chris


Hi all,

Prompted by UC Berkeley's Botanical Garden deployment, we've been looking at the colors used on read-only fields and for users with read-only permissions. Currently, users are finding that read-only fields aren't particularly readable due to a dark background on the fields and low contrast between the background color and text color, as you can see in the attached readonly-original.png screenshot.

With the support of the PAHMA, UCJEPS, and botgarden users of CollectionSpace, we'd like to propose a contribution to change the background and text colors to those in the attached readonly-proposed.png screenshot. You can view what read only fields look like next to active fields in readonly-fieldlevel.png. The necessary changes to the CSS can be seen in this commit: https://github.com/cspace-deployment/ui/commit/a7ed15c23283d25c18bc233b4af6a8c27dfb1a7f in the botanical garden's tenant CSS files.

Any feedback on this change is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
Amy

The new color scheme contrasts much less to the dark text in the fields,
which makes it easier to read, imho. Looks good, Amy! (Love the catnip
record.)

Quick questions, do the hierarchy sections get read-only treatment too? And
would it make sense to hide the deactivated repeatable buttons and the
structured date icons with CSS in this updated scheme? In any case, I think
it's good.

Thanks so much, Kim.

Megan, do you need anything else from us?  Otherwise we will allow this to
be merged with master for the 3.2.3 release.

Cheers,

only legibility
**


Hi Megan and colleagues,****


On May 21, Amy Wieliczka sent a proposed contribution to this list for
review.  We've found the default styling for the read-only accounts is a
problem for some people, so Amy did some nice work to make things easier to
read.  We have had good feedback on this here at UC Berkeley and would like
to contribute this change into the 3.2.3 release.  ****


Please let us know if you see any problems with this approach.  The first
screenshot below is the current styling.  The second one includes Amy's
styling works.****


Many thanks,****
Chris****

Hi all, ****


Prompted by UC Berkeley's Botanical Garden deployment, we've been looking
at the colors used on read-only fields and for users with read-only
permissions. Currently, users are finding that read-only fields aren't
particularly readable due to a dark background on the fields and low
contrast between the background color and text color, as you can see in the
attached readonly-original.png screenshot. ****


With the support of the PAHMA, UCJEPS, and botgarden users of
CollectionSpace, we'd like to propose a contribution to change the
background and text colors to those in the attached readonly-proposed.png
screenshot. You can view what read only fields look like next to active
fields in readonly-fieldlevel.png. The necessary changes to the CSS can be
seen in this commit:
https://github.com/cspace-deployment/ui/commit/a7ed15c23283d25c18bc233b4af6a8c27dfb1a7f
in the botanical garden's tenant CSS files. ****


Any feedback on this change is greatly appreciated!****


Thanks!****
Amy****
