Research direction

Run MintUpdate on Linux Mint 22.1 and open the automation setup where the warning banner appears. Inspect the banner's presentation and verify that its text is legible at the reported 1366x768 display size; done means the warning can be read clearly without changing its purpose.

Description

BUG

Describe the bug

There is a warning message that, at least on the less-than-stellar screen of one of my laptops, is very hard to read.

To Reproduce

  1. Run MintUpdate.
  2. Go to set up 'automation' (perhaps only when automation is not enabled already).

Expected behavior

The banner needs to be more legible than it is.
