Description
Under the new default color scheme, icons for items in the sidebar admin menu have nearly the same color as the surrounding text.
| Version | Label Color | Icon Color | Perceptual difference (CIE2000 ΔE) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6.9 | #e8e8ea | #9ca2a7 | 18.2 |
| 7.0 | #ffffff | #f3f1f1 | 2.9 |
This makes it much harder to quickly read the labels. It would be better if the colors were as perceptually different as they were in 6.9.
