Description

There are usability/accessibility issues with current list view.

  1. The contrast between hover color and normal/alternating row is far too low.
  2. The contrast between normal and alternating rows is too low.

Solution:
The attached patch solves these problems by

  • using a lighter grey for normal rows and add a nearly white border-bottom.
  • using light blue as hover color.

Good idea! I like it too. But at the moment we have various colors for hovering elements now:
- grey at the modules
- green arrows at the New wizzard
- dark grey for the RTE buttons
- the page tree has no hover color

At all i think it would be a good a point thinking about a unified hover and is-activ color for the complete backend :)

I think this is fixed with the new skin in TYPO3 4.4.
