Description Uri Herrera 2016-10-08 20:32:17 UTC

I can't describe the bug better than that. Aurorae refuses to use the close button background if the theme is named Nomad. Changing the name to anything else works fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Copy an Aurorae theme, rename it Nomad
2. Open system settings and change the theme
3. Close button is invisible

Actual Results:  
Aurorae doesn't display close button background.

Expected Results:  
Aurorae displays close button background.

I literally copied a working theme and tested that by changing the name to Nomad and it refused to display the close button background file until I changed back the name.

Could it be that you already had a theme called Nomad installed? In that case it could be that there is still an element in a cache which gets loaded instead of looking into the new theme

I tried deleting the folder, logged out, created it again, deleted it, rebooted, and it wouldn't  work. As I mentioned I tried too with a working theme which I just changed the name to Nomad and did all of that again but it wouldn't work until I changed the name.

For instance the background worked after I changed the name from Nomad to NomadDeco.

I still think that you have a cache file somewhere containing the elements. Aurorae doesn't care about names.

Is there a specific cache folder that I have to delete?. I normally delete ~/.cache/plasma but I guess that only affects Plasma and not Kwin?.

I'm not sure. I searched for the cache files on my system but didn't find them yet.
