Hi all!
Thank you for supporting and sorry @gweimer @texmex that the new design actually works worse for you. I am not an accessibility expert and cannot quite understand why does the new layout works badly for color blindness. We did not touch any colors at all. Just stroke widths, rectangle sizes, minor gray contrasts.
Am I understand correctly, the most annoying thing is the new pin labels contrast? That is, their color is too close to the color of the node background. @temex can you confirm?
I suspect the final perceived image is also depends on the monitor model and settings. I can see quite significant difference on my PC and some other machines.
Anyway, it will be nice if someone can perform an experiment with color. In XOD IDE press Ctrl+Shift+I to invoke the developer console, then Ctrl+Shift+C to enter the element selection element, pick the element of interest, and try to change it color to see the effect in real time. What color of the pin labels feels most natural to you?
