Thanks for your time, Brynn. Very nice, that you try to help me.
I'm not sure this sounds like the same bug. In my experience, the problem only occurs with the menu item where the mouse is hovering -- because the highlighting makes the text color too close to the background color.
Andreas, did you ever change the theme?
I don't think so. May be I choosed one, during the installation of Windows 10. But I didn't downloaded any theme or created an own one.
I only still have Windows 7, so my instructions might not be quite right. But let's try.
Go to Control Panel > Personalization (or in case Windows 10 is different, try looking for Control Panel > Display and look for some way to change the theme)
My theme is the standard theme "Windows 10" as you can see in my screenshot: http://borumat.de/+screenshots/hc-2016.02.23-14_14_24.png
When I change to the two other existing standard themes, it has no effect for the described problem.
Even if I change to the theme "High Kontrast" (it is not visible in the screenshot), which seems to be useful for people with an eye disease, nothing changes in Inkscape.
It's themes which use a lot of transparency (generally called "Aero themes") where this problem occurs. If you switch to the Basic or Windows Classic theme, the problem should be fixed, if this is the same bug.
I have used these types of customization.
Of course I can try that to find out, if that is really the cause.
But I have no theme called "classic" or "non aero" as you can see in my screenshot.
Which option should I change please?
By the way, I guess you haven't seen any problems like this, with other programs?
That's true. I've never seen such a problem in any other program.
Sorry for my poor English.
Kind regards, Andreas
