[email protected] <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #1 from [email protected] <[email protected]> --- I am experiencing the same issue and managed to resolve it. - On KDE Plasma in dark mode, Plasma sets the active icon theme to breeze-dark, which supplies modern light-colored SVGs for tools - On GNOME (and other non-Plasma environments), the system icon theme is Yaru-dark or Adwaita-dark. These desktop themes do not provide KolourPaint-specific tool action icons (tool_pen, tool_brush, tool_line, tool_eraser, tool_rectangle, etc.). 1. When these icons aren't found in the active desktop theme, KolourPaint falls back to its own bundled application icons installed in `${KDE_INSTALL_DATADIR}/kolourpaint/icons/hicolor/` (from `pics/action/` in the source repository). 2. The bundled fallback assets in `pics/action/` (both the fixed-size PNGs and SVGs) date back to ~2003 and have hard-coded dark colors (#000000 and #313436) with no dark-mode awareness. 3. In addition, libKF6BreezeIcons registers 'breeze' (the light theme) as the hard-coded fallback via QIcon::setFallbackThemeName("breeze"). It doesn't detect GNOME's dark mode to select breeze-dark. As a result, on any dark GTK/GNOME desktop, the toolbar background is dark charcoal (`#2a2a2a`) while the tool icons are rendered in hard-coded #000000 / #313436, making the left toolbar buttons invisible. Fix: Modernize the fallback icons in `pics/action/` by replacing the legacy hard-coded SVGs/PNGs with adaptive SVGs. This ensures the tool icons automatically inherit the palette text color (white on dark backgrounds, dark on light backgrounds) across all desktop environments. Ubuntu should also package `kf6-breeze-icon-theme` as a dependency. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
