Webdialogs: inputbox shows black background (sketchup webkit
-
Move "font-size: 12px;" down to its own line. I had that on the same line as background-color and that's an error on my part.
If that doesn't do the trick, the only difference might be the OS X version. I'm still on 10.6 and I don't have a way to test 10.7.
Just to be clear: this fix is only for dynamic components. It will not fix the 3D Warehouse search box or any other affected software on the mac.

Thanks for posting this workaround! It worked perfectly for me. (On OSX 10.7.4 Lion, Sketchup 8.0.14345 Pro)

When I updated to Safari to 5.1.7 in Mac Leopard webdialogs boxes turn black in Sketchup.
I've installed an older version of safari with pacifist and now it works again.http://www.charlessoft.com/ (pacifist software)

ditto.. works fine for me too..
thanks peter. -
Hi All,
The fix Peter provided worked for the fields in my DC options window. But when I open my custom attributes window and look at the "Display Label" it is black as well. I couldn't find the style in the css style sheet that changed this input field. Does anyone know the style I need to change.
(On OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, Sketchup 8.0.14345 Pro)

http://mac.oldapps.com/safari.php (Safari 5.1.1 (Snow Leopard))Update If you find more black dialoge boxes blacked out like in profile builder or at 3d warehose this solution of Juantxo will work for all blacked
out dialoge boxes follow instructions on this page to revert Safari back to 5.1.1 even though it's for a earlier ver.http://appletoolbox.com/2010/06/downgrade-from-safari-5-0-to-safari-4-0-5/

fwiw, i did the DC fix a while ago and yes, it works but as mentioned in this thread, it only works with the DC dialog.. skindigo was also exhibiting this blacked out behavior so i eventually downgraded safari using the method mentioned by Juantxo a few posts back.. pacifist with an older version of safari..
and that fixes everything in sketchup instead of just the DC dialog.

I wonder if this has been reported to apple so the next Safari update will resolve this? BTW Still love my MAC

I'm using the developer release of Safari 6 and the problem remains in SU.
Safari's User Agent Style Sheet, handles the input border correctly but SU doesn't use that, so it's a WebCore update that's needed. i'm looking for a patch at the moment.

Thanks John I'd like to stay updated on this as I like to stay updated on all software.

Thanks guys!
I managed to get all the dialog boxes of 1001bit fixed following the suggestions on the css;It's a lot of work to edit all the html files, but at least the problem is solved.
Cheers! -
I grabbed a copy of Pacifist, but I can't find a copy of Safari 5.1.5 to install.
For example, the page http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1070
has a Download button that leads to http://www.apple.com/safari/download/.However, this page only supports downloading of Safari 5.1.7.
Help?

Hi,
update to my investigation.WebView uses a different version of Webkit than Safari (and not just in SU) and I can't find a way to change the userAgent from within SU, so been trying another approach.
dlg.execute_script %(function addGlobalStyle(css) { var head, style; head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0]; if (!head) { return; } style = document.createElement('style'); style.type = 'text/css'; style.innerHTML = css; head.appendChild(style); } addGlobalStyle('input {border; 1px solid gray;}'))
This works if you know the name of the dialog, but how can I get that with ruby to apply a global patch. Is it possible to get a new dialog name in ruby.
Using WebInspector to add the JS I can also exclude type withaddGlobalStyle('input, input;not[type="submit"];not[type="button"];not[type="file"];not[type="search"]{border; 1px solid gray;}'))
, but that returns true and fails in RubyConsole

hi, I'm getting
Error: #<SyntaxError: (eval):24: compile error (eval):15: parse error, unexpected '(' alias(:show_orig, :show) ^ (eval):20: both block arg and actual block given> (eval):24
I'd much rather use a small amount of ruby to 'fix' the input problem
cheers for your efforts

It's much more complicated than that.
I have a patch that does similar.. (and more,) but we can't release such a thing without Boulder's blessing.
We have realized, that it's best not to show how to modify the API modules and classes. Some newbie's just run with it and start hacking away, and worse. (Yes we've all been guilty of openly discussing such things in the past. I'm sure I have. Sometimes we forget the "kids" come along and read what we've written later.)
Anyway... you don't need the literal block when you pass to the orig method, as the wrapper method has already converted any block argument to a Proc object.
So instead you do:
block_given? ? show_orig(&proc) : show_orig()
But it will not work like that, for the same reasons that the current API
show()
,show_modal()
andset_on_close()
block form methods do not work on Mac. (The webpage is never ready when Ruby executes the block.) -
Improved my 'GreaseKit' UserScript using a file from Dan (cheers)
