Description Matthias Hofmann 2003-03-08 17:26:26 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:          Linux

Hello,

here's what I think would be an improvement to KDevelop: Currently, in Options->EditorColors you have to set 

1.) the background color for the window itself
2.) the background color for the text

I would like the background color for the text to automatically have the same color as the background of the window, effectively making the text's background color transparent. I think it makes no sense to split it up into two separate options, as the text background usually needs to be of the same color as the window background, otherwise it looks, well, awful.

Furthermore, I would really appreciate it if there were an option to automatically adopt the background color from the settings in KControlCenter, so that I do not have to adjust the background color in KDevelop each time I switch to different color settings.

Best regards,

Matthias Hofmann

This is for sure a KDevelop 2.x bug.

This does not fit in our current KDevelop 3 philosophy.
