[plasmashell] [Bug 461939] Plasma panel items don't change color like titlebars and others in keeping with the new dynamic accent color
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=461939 --- Comment #6 from Sadi --- For anyone who is interested, it seems there are two possible workarounds to get rid of this inconsistency: 1. When using dynamic accent color from current wallpaper (plus using wallpaper slideshow), inconsistency can be prevented by choosing a custom tinted color scheme with the option "Make window titlebars accent-colored" unchecked (which stops changing titlebar foreground color between black and white). 2. A more complex workaround can be implemented by running a script in the background which detects change of titlebar foreground color between black and white in file "~/.config/kdeglobals", section "[WM]", line "activeForeground=", and changes plasma theme as well as icon theme (e.g. by creating a custom icon theme that only includes alternative panel/status icons) between dark and light whenever its value changes between "0,0,0" and "255,255,255". However, such a script making use of inotifywait command, for example, doesn't work well, probably because it creates too much of a burden for plasmashell. Therefore, I had to give up on this, and choose the first workaround at the end. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=461939 --- Comment #5 from Sadi --- I'm sorry for taking your time regarding this "very niche customization" as you call it. I've actually stopped using latte-dock very recently, seeing that plasma panels have come so close to offering the same features. It seems the only missing ones now are (1) this "adaptive color", and (2) zoom effect in "Icons-Only Task Manager". Especially after the latest dynamic accent color feature, the first one is much more important that the fancy zoom effect. Could you perhaps give me a tip for detecting from the command line when the new dynamic accent color from current wallpaper result in change of color in window title/menu/tool bars? I could then use a script that changes the plasma theme colors in keeping with it... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=461939 --- Comment #2 from Sadi --- (In reply to veggero from comment #1) > Plasma panels follow the normal background color of windows, not the accent > color. You can basically consider plasma panels as the content of a window. > This means that it's only appropriate for them to use the same font color as > window's content, which is black in both screenshots. Then wouldn't it be better to change this, and make panels handle colors in keeping with title/menu/toolbars, instead of the current behavior like main app windows??? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
