Description Leo Savernik 2010-08-19 12:45:51 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.2) 
OS:                Linux

Since I have switched from true-type to bitmap fonts for general KDE fonts, plasma colours all bitmap fonts white. As I'm using Aya, this leads to white fonts on a light gray background: illegible.

Those fonts that are not switched to bitmap stay being displayed black.

The panel-settings' top bar displays bitmap fonts black, the applet selector below white.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Install bitmap fonts, enable them in fontconfig and select them as font for window panel and desktop in system settings.

Actual Results:  
Text is displayed white.

Expected Results:  
Text is displayed black.

screenshot demonstrating the issue

Screenshot displays part of window panel: You can spot white text on light gray background.

Also examine the clock to the far right: The time is displayed via a true-type font and black (as expected). The date below, however, takes its font from the general settings which specify a bitmap font, thus being displayed white.
