What?

Adds a default black text color to submenus in the editor, and adds color:inherit to submenus in the editor if there is a user-set color.

Closes #40908

-For page list submenus see #44310

Why?

If the navigation block was placed inside a container with a text color, submenus used that text color in the editor.
-Because the default submenu background color is white, there was a risk that the text could be white on white background. This could be seen in the header menu of Twenty Twenty-Two.
-The submenu text color option did not work in the editor.

How?

Updates the editor stylesheet for the navigation block.

Testing Instructions

Activate Twenty Twenty-Two.
Open the Site Editor and select the navigation block in the header template part.
Add a submenu to the navigation.
Confirm that the submenu background color is white, and the text color is black.
Open the color settings for the navigation block and select a submenu text color. Please test both palette colors and custom colors.
Confirm that your selected text color is working in the submenu in the editor and front.

Screenshots or screencast

Before:
The text in the submenu is invisible because it is white text on white background

After:
The text is visible in the submenu as the color is black on white background.

@carolinan carolinan added [Type] Bug An existing feature does not function as intended [Block] Navigation Affects the Navigation Block labels Sep 23, 2022

Thanks for the PR. Just to understand, this is an editor-only issue? I'm having a hard time to reproduce the original issue, if I set a white color on a container, sure enough the dropdown chevron inherits it, but submenu items are still an appropriate color.

In any case, it seems like an issue to potentially fix here: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/trunk/packages/block-library/src/navigation/style.scss#L398 — which I believe was meant to solve the same issue. Do you think that code can be tweaked to catch the edgecase at play here?

I tested again with Twenty Twenty-Two and the submenu text is still unreadable in the header.
I was not able to rewrite or reuse the current style, because it checks for background color on the navigation block. .wp-block-navigation:not(.has-background) -not text color on the submenu.

Are you seeing the issue in the editor only, or also on the frontend? And sorry if this should be obvious, but do you have any steps to reproduce, or perhaps some test content?

For the submenu block, the problem is in the editor only.

The testing instructions are in the PR description. - I can not share a navigation block code because navigation blocks uses id references now, not inner blocks.

For the page list submenu, there are problems both in the editor and front, but that is dealt with in a separate PR.

Apologies, it's been a long day. I can reproduce. For custom menus, I see it in both frontend and editor. In the editor, this happens:

The "inherit" which should set the color to that of the main navigation gets overridden.

On the frontend, the same happens, but with some different rules:

In both of these cases, inherit should win. But before we boost its specificity, I'll dig a bit more.

I'm seeing the issue in editor and frontend, and tried an alternate fix in #44578. The color should ideally be inherited, not explicitly set, so if you set a specific menu color and background, that bleeds into the submenu. What do you think?
