In dark mode FloatingActionButton and RaisedButton render text with different color even if the foreground color is the same

[AxelMarquez]

In dark mode, when I set the same color for FloatingActionButton and RaisedButton, RaisedButton’s text has different color.

Is this the expected behavior?

The code for the dark screenshot is the following (for the light one just change dark to light):

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {

    return new MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',

      theme: new ThemeData(
        primarySwatch: Colors.orange,
        accentColor: Colors.orange,
        buttonColor: Colors.orange,
        brightness: Brightness.dark
      ),

      home: new Scaffold(
        appBar: new AppBar(title: new Text("Title")),
        body: new ListView(children: [
          new RaisedButton(child: new Text("Hi"), onPressed: () {}),
          new FloatingActionButton(child: new Text("Hi"), onPressed: () {})
        ]) 
      ),
    );
  }
}

No, I don't think this is the expected behavior. I think the problem is that the FAB doesn't use the ButtonTheme, whereas the RaisedButton does. This should be corrected.

@AxelMarquez - it's been a long time since you opened this issue and I apologize for the lack of activity. If you're still interested in the topic, there's a wide-ranging proposal for updating the button widgets and their themes in #54776. The new issue includes a proposal for API that would give one control over the text color of RaisedButtons. If you have time, I hope you'll take a look.

I'm going to close this issue in favor of #54776.
