Hi there,
I am using kdevelop using for application appearance oxygen as a style and zion reversed for colours from kde accessibility package.

Some elements from kdevelop unfortunately crash with the theme making it unreadable...
I could fix myself some pretty easy, adjusting the colours for the editor, but I still have the issue with the tooltip
which seems totally washout.

It would be great if a consistent usable theme for accessibility issues can be shiped.

please show a screenshot of how it looks like in comparison to your usual theme so we get an idea on what to work on

you can see the whiteish background for the tooltip.. .which makes things difficult to read

the same for the doxygen comments (dark blue) which I could not find a way to customize the colour.

ah ok. how does this work in html browsers for you? as the tooltip can embed arbitrary HTML we/I decided against using the system color scheme here. Most websites simply hardcode white as background (or expect the browser to have a white background by default), and become unusable when this is not the case...

Probably we just need to follow the suggestions in 270813 to make it somehow configurable...
