SwiftKey "Inverted Flow" on Note 3

[SpookDroid]

Hi guys,

Is anyone else experiencing this issue with both the SwiftKey 'official' build and the beta? Since a few updates ago I've noticed that on the Note 3, the "Flow" trace colors shows up as 'inverted' or 'negative'. I didn't pay much attention before because I thought it was a theme thing (I used Holo), but now that I've tried the Ice theme, the same thing happens, and the snow flow path and the snow buildup at the bottom now shows as a blood-red psychedelic patch and buildups.

Now, if I type the "HoHoHo" easter egg, then the path becomes white and looks right. But after the keyboard is closed the path comes back to its 'negative' or 'inverted' state.

It's not just the Beta, though... same thing happens with the latest official build.

Also, it's not everywhere haha. I just noticed that it happens on SOME apps (Stock e-mail while composing the message, Facebook while composing, Google+ while composing, Gmail while composing... see the pattern here? ) But it doesn't happen when typing an address in Chrome or when typing in a text field on S-Note.

I wanted to take a picture, but screenshots show the snow as white! Even though the actual screen is showing up as red/green/blue/yellow.

Dude I thought I was the only one. Got my Note 3 yesterday and realised this as well. I always use the light theme and its most evident in that theme. I also tried to take a screen shot but I just cant seem to capture it. Same issue with the new ice theme as well, the snow builds up as red and blue and inverted negative colours. Ill see if I can take a pic of it with my camera.

Yup, glad to know I'm not alone but worried this won't go away soon haha. I reported the bug to SwiftKey but still no reply.

I myself reported it to Swiftkey. Here are the the pics I capture with the bug. Hopefully they would reply soon.

Yup, same thing I'm seeing but taking a screenshot for some reason shows the snow as white hehehe (couldn't get a screenshot of the trace, though).

Well, at least the dev has acknowledged the issue hehe (they responded back, I actually referred them to your pictures ). Hopefully they'll be able to patch things up in the next update.
