See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** In Wayland if you have dark breeze theme then all GTK app are also dark (which is what it supposed to do) but when you switch to light then they won’t switch back until you log out and log back in. I have this issue with both .deb and snap gtk apps. Not sure if this issue has been brought up yet. If not I would be happy to submit a bug if pointed at the right direction. Thanks. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Launch Setting, choose Dark Theme 2. Launch a GTK application 3. In Setting switch to Light Theme, GTK application will stay in dark while Qt based apps switch to Light them. OBSERVED RESULT GTk based application staying in dark/light when you switch to dark/light breeze theme EXPECTED RESULT Should change the to the appropriate theme without having to log off and log back on.

Or are they still the wrong color after that? 2090627 2 mohan.ram 2022-01-07 01:54:18 +0000 Hello Nate, No quitting the app and relaunching it won't do anything. Initially I thought it was because I was using a snap version (I use LibreOffice, Firefox, and Thunderbird that are snap), but deb version also suffer from the same fate. 2090815 3 nate 2022-01-07 16:29:16 +0000 Thanks. Does it work when you explicitly change the color scheme to Breeze Dark in System Settings > Appearance > Colors and then restart the app? Are you positive that these apps are using the Breeze GTK theme? 2090865 4 mohan.ram 2022-01-07 19:53:45 +0000 (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3) > Thanks.

Yes that works. To confirm going into System Settings > Appearance > Colors changing it there and closing out of the app and opening back up works. For both snap and deb version. 2091757 5 nate 2022-01-10 15:50:07 +0000 Thanks for the info. Does it work when you explicitly change the Global Theme scheme to Breeze Dark in System Settings > Appearance > Global Themes and then restart the app? Basically I'm trying to find if it's broken anywhere we set global themes, or just on the Quick Settings page. 2091761 6 mohan.ram 2022-01-10 15:53:26 +0000 (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #5) > Thanks for the info.

No it does not work in System Settings > Appearance > Global Themes, same issue as with Quick Settings page. 2091765 7 nate 2022-01-10 16:00:06 +0000 Thanks. I can confirm that. 2113217 8 filippo27998 2022-03-25 09:43:16 +0000 I suffer from this bug as well, but it's worth mentioning that Firefox specifically appears to change its theme to Adwaita, even though the specified GTK theme is still Breeze according to gsettings. I can confirm that the workaround is to set the color scheme manually. 2118210 9 nate 2022-04-19 15:34:05 +0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 421745 ***
