Summary	0004858: Burp Suite Raw Text Fields Don't Show Text After Recent Kali Update
Description	After the most recent set of up updates to Kali, the raw text fields in Burp Suite Pro and Community are not displaying text. The text is there but not visible. This is most noticeable in the "raw" tab on Proxy Intercept (See screenshot). It is also noticeable from Help \| Diagnostics. I am using the current version of Burp Pro (1.7.35), also tested this with Community (1.7.35). Tried re-installing Burp Pro, no impact. Tried both "Gnome" and "System X11 Default" desktop login options as well. If I restore back to a snapshot before the updates, everything displays correctly. I will file a bug report with Burp as well. Can provide additional diagnostic information if needed.

sn0wfa11 2018-07-24 15:38 reporter ~0009381	Yep, thanks. It is always ones like these that make me feel dumb afterward. This is a font issue. The Courier font is blank after some updates on my machines. Changing the display font in Burp fixes the issue.
