Dear developers,

When translating strings, Highlighted focus interferes with text input. It hardly tell white-colored texts from grey-colored highlighted input zone.
Please disable it by default, or add an option to disable this behavior.

Best regards

PS.
I think it should be better to fix this, but it seems not so necessary as I found another way to edit .po file by downloading it locally.

An area for inputting translation strings is always hi-lighted by default, when we are going to edit online.

do you mean input method? like you type in romanji then it gets converted to hiragana as you type then you can convert that to kanji?

Perhaps, it is because you might not have noticed it.
It occurs whether input method is direct input or Japanese.

That's what I was asking - yes. Japanese (and korean, chinese too). I don't normally type 日本語... デモできます。:)so WHERE are you typing where you don't like the colors? what apps? what input methods? screenshot?

I posted the issue to the Master, instead. So I closed.
I pushed a wrong button for closing. I will attach a screenshot soon.

Here is what I see when I type Japanese (ibus input method - some input methods overlay their own windows and graphics over the app - in this case ibus displays the selection list in image 3). At first i type にほんご (image 1) - i press space to convert to kanji, (image 2), space again to go into selecting conversions, then enter again to select one (image 4) and now the kanji is there. it is using the same color as the rest of the text. just the font and anti-aliasing happen to make it dimmer, but a very large font or a different one will show it to be the same color. i don't see any problems?

oh i just saw your screenshot - that would have nothing to do with enlightenment or efl - it's entirely web browser. ... why are you editing content in gitea??? why aren't you git cloning the repository, editing the files then committing and pushing the changes? shouldn't you be doing this to test your edits have no bugs/issues?

why are you editing content in gitea??? why aren't you git cloning the repository...

Because gitea supports online editing by default using web browser, so I tested it like in github or transifex. When I edit in web browser, gitea uses the same color. I imagine some users here feel the same trouble.

But I am editing .po file in text editor now by cloning the repository. In this case, there is no problem as your screenshots show.

you definitely want to edit locally because you should build + install and test your edits - in case you make a mistake and the .po cannot be parsed at compile time or something. :)

Thank you, I understood. I think this issue should be closed now.
