Description Ted Mastrandonas 2005-03-17 06:02:37 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.3)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.1 (Mandrakelinux 10.1 3.4.1-4mdk) 
OS:                Linux

It would be desirable and flexible to be able to set the menu background color separate from other window decorations. Currently it is the color of window backgrounds. Thanks.

I'm not familiar with kdeui, but I guess this is a Qt issue. Can anyome confirm?

Yes, styles use the colorgroup.

Well, OTOH, I just noticed that we have many color definitions in KGlobalSettings,
we can always add stuff there and let KDE styles use that. But not Qt styles of course.

Comment 4 Maksim Orlovich 2005-03-18 19:02:40 UTC

No, we can't. KDE styles will not link to kdecore.

Comment 5 FiNeX 2008-11-17 16:01:48 UTC

Is this possible now with new new Qt4 on KDE 4?

Comment 6 Christoph Feck 2011-07-26 15:49:54 UTC

Qt has QApplication::palette(const char *classname), so KDE could offer per-widget class color configuration.
