            Bug ID: 416225
           Summary: Highlighting of inactive and minimized windows
                    reversed in task manager plasmoid.
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.17.5
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Task Manager
          Assignee: h...@kde.org
          Reporter: rnd...@gmail.com
                CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY

It seems in this new version of plasmashell that the background colors for
windows in the task manager (that is, the way each window's rectangle in the
task manager is colored to indicate that window's status) has been flipped
between inactive windows that are and are not minimized.

The effect is that now it looks like I'm keeping all my windows minimized,
which isn't the case. Maybe it's an intentional choice, but the fact that it
seems they were just swapped compared to previous versions makes it feel like a
potential bug. If it is an intentional design change, it would be nice if there
was a config option for the task manager to swap them back.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Plasma 5.17.5
2. Open some windows
3. Look at the task manager plasmoid

OBSERVED RESULT
The Active Window: Light blue background with darker bar at the top.

Inactive Non-minimized Windows: Gray background with darker bar at the top.

Inactive Minimized Windows: Very light gray background if you look closely,
otherwise appears to be the same color as the panel the plasmoid is on. No bar
at the top edge of the rectangle.

EXPECTED RESULT
This is based on what I recall in previous versions, since I'm not inclined to
recompile an old version of plasma just to check.

The Active Window: Light blue background with darker bar on top.

Inactive Non-minimized Windows: No coloring, so the same color as the panel the
plasmoid is on. I can't recall if the bar along the top edge existed or not.

Inactive Minimized Windows: Gray background, can't remember if there was a
darker bar along the top of the rectangle.
