Description de Langen Sylvain 2016-03-09 12:31:41 UTC
With dark themes (tested with Oxygen and Breeze with the Breeze dark color scheme), a white gradient will appear in Muon from the bottom of the toolbar to a little further. It looks bad because of the contrast with dark themes.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set a dark KDE theme
2. (Preferably use Breeze or Oxygen because I only had those issues on those two)
3. Launch muon (no matter what's the tab)

Actual Results:  
The white gradient will appear on the background and kill the aspect of the program.

Expected Results:  
It shouldn't show it.

I'm using kubuntu backports.

I tried with Breeze dark and changing other dark color schemes in kubuntu 15.10 backports, but cannot see what you mean. Could you please provide a screenshot?
Anyway, it looks more like a problem in the theme than with muon itself. Is it the only application where you see the gradient?

It's pretty much the only program in which I have the problem. Libreoffice looks terrible as well, yet I think this is rather caused by its nature : http://i.imgur.com/UB5GOCO.png . I can't recall of another program encountering the same issue. I use the Breeze Dark color scheme.
Comment 3 Carlo Vanini 2016-03-10 18:31:47 UTC
yes, I see the same gradient in muon-discover.
Comment 4 de Langen Sylvain 2016-03-10 18:36:17 UTC
I think it's meant to be a gradient from the toolbar to the actual background. It probably ignores the color scheme. Shouldn't that be to change?

change background gradient color

The gradient on the window background was hardcoded from darkGray to
transparent. Changed to use a color from the system palette.
