Text selection is unreadable

[pansy27]

Hello.

I was trying out rose pine themes for helix text editor when i found out that "Text highlight background color" for both of these themes is the same as normal background color of the theme which makes it impossible to look at the highlight text as it appears as a solid color block. Here are some screenshots of the problem i am facing:

Rose pine dawn :

Rose pine :

Base 16 default dark for comparison:

Base 16 default light:

In all of the screenshots i am selecting the same text, from line 71 to line 81.

I tried all of these themes on a clean install of helix. I have made no changes whatsoever to the highlight part of the text editor.

We noticed that too 😔 Unfortunately we didn't make these themes but we do love helix so will look into getting that updated!

I see. Thank you for looking into this.

Looks like this was fixed in helix-editor/helix#1716 🎉
