This looks a bit like #7144 (also that one is on Linux Mint, so it could be an issue with the default theme). Probably something like #7144 (comment) could fix the glitch.
@per1234 should we close it as duplicate and continue there?

I've ran the script from #7144 (comment), but it's not working. and yes, it is a bit like #7144, but I don't think #7144 is the same issue. It's entirely different issue.

Furthermore, I am using linux mint 19, which is using different cinnamon version(compared to 18), so there's a chance for a different bug.

It is probably because of theme. I am using ArchLinux with XFCE and this happens when I am using some dark theme. In my case Arduino IDE is not the only program where it happens, it happens with html input fields too. Try to change your theme.

This problem was fixed in the Library Manager on 10 Sept, 2016 (issue #5353) with commit b17c512. A quick look though the code and I can't find a similarly named file for the Board Manager. Anyone know where the style sheet for the board manager is and can set the color to black to see if that fixes this problem?
