Three fixes to the way Neutrino picks black or white for text and overlays sitting on top of your colours and photographs — a sign-up form's email field, the navigation over a dark cover image, and a card laying a pale wash over a dark photo.

Bug fixes

  • A sign-up block's email field kept the wrong colour when the block used your accent colour. The heading, the text and the button all adapted to a light or dark accent; the email field, its underline and its placeholder did not, so on a bright accent they stayed white on white and were almost impossible to see. All four sign-up block sizes are fixed. This only showed up if you changed your accent colour after building the block, which is why it looked intermittent.

  • The navigation could turn dark over a dark cover image. Neutrino picks black or white for the header by reading your feature image, and it was reading the whole picture at once. A photograph that is dark at the top and brighter lower down — a night sky, a dim interior with a lamp in it — averaged out as a light image, and the menu went black over the dark part it actually sits on. It now reads the top of the image, which is the part the header is over.

  • A card with a background photo could lay a pale wash over a dark picture. The same reading was deciding which way the fade behind the text runs. A mostly-black photograph with one bright object in it was being treated as a light photograph, so the card faded to white over a night-time scene. Cards now judge the photograph as a whole.

  • A wide header card with a background image showed no sub-heading in Hybrid mode. The text was there, in white on a white background, so it simply looked as though the card had none. Light and Dark were unaffected.

Under-the-hood improvements

  • The colour Neutrino picks out of your feature image to tint the browser's address bar on phones is unchanged. That part was always right, and it still uses the image's most prominent colour — only the black-or-white decision for text and overlays has changed.
