            Bug ID: 418582
           Summary: Kexi form design colour choices not adhered to in
                    current Manjaro
           Product: KEXI
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Manjaro
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

This shows a query that is illegible due to contrasting colour banding

SUMMARY
When Kexi is run under current Manjaro the design of the forms, particularly
referring to colour, is not adhered to.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Newly install Manjaro from downloaded iso
2. Newly install kexi from within Manjaro using Pamac with all dependencies
3. Connect to database
4. Open a form
5. Open a table as well
6. Open a query as well
7. Compare colour schemes to Kexi running on other platforms from same server

OBSERVED RESULT
The form colour scheme reflects something very different from my own design (a
more conventional style with off-white background, white fields with black
text). 

Queries (and Tables) which present tabular data are illegible with dark/light
bands with dark text. Thus data on alternate lines is thus not legible.

I particularly note that one form does not even show the same scheme as other
forms.

Looking in Design Mode, the hex numbers for the colours of fields, foreground
&background, &c. reflect what is on the screen, not what the stored designs
from the server should contain.

EXPECTED RESULT
Visual effect should be in keeping with Kexi running on other machines which
reflect the colour design choices made long ago.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/Manjaro 18.1.5 Xfce build (as shown at download)

OR, now,

Linux/Manjaro 18.1.5 Cinnamon build (as shown at download)
$ inxi gives
Kernel: 5.4.18-1-MANJARO x86_64

Kexi 3.2.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.66.0
Qt Version: 5.14.1

HARDWARE
HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

1.  This same version of Kexi running on updated  but earlier Manjaro version
17 Xfce build
$ inxi gives
Kernel: 4.14.170-1-MANJARO x86_64

Change of Manjaro 'Schemes' does not improve matters, Qt5 settings do not seem
to offer anything appropriate, and the Qt5 style sheets cause Kexi to crash

-end-
