Tab Color Contrast

[justingeeslin]

I found the text on inactive tabs difficult to read on the window shown below..

.. and so I ran the colors through WebAIM: Contrast Checker. These colors do not pass some accessibility guidelines given the font weight.
I used a color picker to pull out the colors as the following
Background color: #5D5C7F
Foreground color (text): #050506

(Found in release 3.6.0.0.)

The same color scheme also appears here, in the Setup Scene, perspective.

I’ve made the purple background color lighter to facilitate more contrast between that and the text.
Creates enough contrast. #9797B4

The darker tab color was possibly created programmatically, a la new Color(173, 167, 208).darker();.

This new color is chosen and added to the palette for its contrast against black and still paler than the window’s purple.

Thoughts?

Thank you for bringing this up and for the detail.
We do not want Alice to discourage users in this way.

This could the right fix for this specific issue. Do you have a PR (for develop) ready to go?

I don't have the PR ready to go, but if you're open to the change I will work toward one.

Even with #150 , I should be able to get far enough in my development environment to see the Select Project window.
