Bug ID: 385027
Summary: Timer widget unreadable in dark theme / font and space
not user-customisable | hours not dropable
Product: kdeplasma-addons
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: timer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
The useful timer widget loses its appeal when the Breeze Dark theme is applied.
First, it is unreadable, second the font could be user definable and third it
could also let the user to hide/unhide the hours section as currently seconds
can be turned on or off by the user. That is because most will probably set
under hour alarms.
To most developers' surprise timer widget is using images to show the time. The
reasons are not clear but it is more acceptable that using simple text produces
better results since handling these sorts of issues falls automatically within
the responsibility of the installed and running theme.
I am using Kubuntu 17.04 and found the images in three locations meaning it was
supplied for these themes: default, oxygen, KDE4 oxygen. KDE now comes with
more themes out of the box and if you don't check / supply the required assets,
users will have problem.
It shouldn't take much time to check /supply those things. This way many more
hours of other users are saved which is in line with Linux philosophy.
