https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483614 --- Comment #18 from obno...@gmail.com --- Yes, your screenshot shows the problem, which is that some buttons pick their foreground color from one value in the colors file while other buttons pick theirs from another value. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I've just installed your update theme and here's a screenshot of what I'm seeing. I'm still a little unclear as to the issue we are trying to duplicate here (that's down to my understanding of themes!) so based on my screenshot does this mean I have duplicated the symptoms you are seeing? Thanks, Nick. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Here is the version with the magenta icons. Sorry for having wasted your time. Regarding my theme, yes, I have been using it continually since Plasma 4 and through Plasma 5 and I have now upgraded to Plasma 6 on the same system. I have noticed that in Plasma 6, themes now have a metadata.json file rather than metadata.desktop, and a new plasmarc file which my theme does not have. This might be why it does not show up in the installer, I don't know; though store.kde.org does not currently have a separate section for Plasma 6 themes so who knows. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Hang-on, I've found it in Plasma Style. So, I have now switched to breeze dark theme and then selected your test style. See attached screenshot. No magenta icons in the system tray. Can you confirm I am testing this correctly, in which case I'll do some more tests to try to get your symptoms. Thanks. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I have installed your test theme into the correct folder (see screenshot) and logged out and in again but it still does not appear in the Plasma theme selector. I do wonder whether this is related (i.e. is Plasma somehow spotting an error in the theme format and blocking it)? Hoping someone else reading this bug might have some ideas. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I have tried the git method and the theme does not appear in the them selector after installation. Also, as you can see in this screenshot, it is not appearing in the "Download New Themes" selector. Did you install this theme on Plasma 5 and then upgrade? Perhaps there is some king of compatibility check happening on my fresh install Plasma 6 which is causing this to not install?

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483614 --- Comment #9 from obno...@gmail.com --- Hi Nick, It should be as simple as cd ~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme git clone https://codeberg.org/obnosim/velours.git velours Or you could download the latest release here: https://store.kde.org/p/998798 or search "velours" in system settings GetNewTheme window. It tried some other third-party themes but I couldn't find any except mine that uses an inverted scheme for buttons with backgrounds, so the issue is not apparent in any of them because buttons with or without backgrounds have the same foreground color. Here is another way to debug the issue without needing a third-party theme. # Create a local fork of Breeze: cp /usr/share/plasma/desktoptheme/default ~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/plasma-test # Copy the colors file from Breeze Dark (since Breeze does not have one as it uses the application colorscheme) cp /usr/share/plasma/desktoptheme/breeze-dark/colors ~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/plasma-test/colors # Now edit in ~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/plasma-test/colors the value ForegroundNormal under the [Colors:Button] section to something easy to pick up visually, like magenta: ForegroundNormal=252,0,252 # Now edit ~/.local/share/plasma/desktoptheme/plasma-test/metadata.json to give it a distinct name, then go enable the theme in system settings Then you can do the following tests: - open a calendar and notice that the buttons in the top-right corner, Settings and Keep Open, which have no background by design, still have white icons - switch to any system tray widget (for example: the volume control, or klipper) and notice that the same buttons with no background now have magenta icons - open the logout prompt and notice that the "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons, which do have a background, still have white text Conclusion: some buttons use the color from "[Colors:Button] ForegroundNormal", some don't, and it's not consistent: buttons without backgrounds don't all use the same foreground color. I could not find an example of a button with a background that does use "[Colors:Button] ForegroundNormal". I'll upload an archive with that test project to make it more convenient and screenshots so it's clearer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Are you able to confirm precisely which folders it is installed in? Meanwhile I have tried installing a couple of random themes via the Plasma Themes settings (Relax-Light-Global-6 and Ocean) and my quick testing suggests they are OK. Could you try one of these too and confirm if they work for you? Thanks, Nick. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483614 --- Comment #6 from obno...@gmail.com --- Editing the theme's `colors` file to replace [Colors:Button] ForegroundNormal=0,0,0 with [Colors:Button] ForegroundNormal=255,255,255 fixes all the previous cases, however it creates new issues with other buttons (the ones that are always visible and not just on hover) that are now white on white where they were previously black on white. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
