Is this a problem with GTK+ applications or Qt applications? The
settings above should only apply to Qt, AFAIK. If you want to fiddle
with GTK+ themes you can use lxappearance if KDE has no options for it.

Qt can mimic your GTK+ theme, but I don't think the opposite is
possible.

It would be useful to know your theme settings.

Stretch color scheme problems

2016-02-15 Thread Gary Roach

Hi all;

Ever since I switch to Stretch I have been having a problem with the 
color scheme of various applications. I get a lot of black lettering on 
a black background, white on white and dark blue on black background 
(impossible to read). I've tried to fiddle with the colors at the kde 
desktop level and also at the individual application level. There 
doesn't seem to be a consistent pattern to the problem. Any suggestions 
would be sincerely appreciated.


Note: I do not want to change from KDE. I like it a lot.
