Description Adam Felson 2016-05-21 18:51:16 UTC

When a dark on light background profile is selected, too many of the "color N" colors are also light.  Having, for example, bright pink characters on a yellow background results in print that is nearly unreadable.  When a "reversed" (dark on a light background) profile is selected, all the colors also need to be reset to have approximately the same brightness (dark) as the default color scheme.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  select a light on dark profile such as "black on light yellow"
2. use an application that uses color coding such as ls --color
3.

Actual Results:  
unreadable text

Expected Results:  
readable text

Hi, I'm from the Bugsquad team and we are triaging bugs on Konsole today.

Application Version: 17.12.3
KDE Plasma Version: 5.12.6
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.44.0
Qt Version: 5.9.5

I 'think' I can reproduce what you say but, to ensure It'd be good if you could provide the version on which you tested and the step 3 that you left empty.
Also a screenshot would be really helpful.
