faulty results from coloring
That could create very annoying faulty results such as the screenshot demonstrates. Latte coloring is not automatic, applets should support it first, that means that applets that do not support it will be painted monochromatic even though they shouldnt. This could be very annoying and could create user frunstationg. This is why, [1] Latte coloring should be optional (disable by default, enabled by the user) [2] Latte will need a way to disable coloring at per applet basis, in order for the user to be able to disable it for those applet that is needed, such as applets that are full colored. No, I am not talking about the monochrome mode here. I am talking about when the monochrome mode is off. And users enable the "hide background..." option. You just need to change the text color in that case: + dark background -> white text color + light background -> black text color And that is not the monochrome mode. > You just need to change the text color in that case:

change the text color for what applets?
[1] all applets?
[2] applets that support Latte painting?
For all applets. I think that is a needed action when you hide the panel background. (In reply to trmdi from comment #6) > For all applets. I think that is a needed action when you hide the panel > background. this is not possible because Plasma does not support it... the textColor can not be changed at per-panel basis, it can be changed only globally for the plasma theme and that means for all plasma theme elements.... applets, tooltips, panels, etc. etc. you can read: https://phabricator.kde.org/T9769 where this discussion took place... an initial plasma patch that could provide a way for this to be possible: https://phabricator.kde.org/D15839 is probably considered not appropriate or not a valid solution..

Hmm, I didn't know that. Did you try pinging them ? Maybe they've forgot it. |
Created attachment 117128 [details] when the monochrome mode is off When the Latte panel's background is hidden, the text color should always automatically change depending on the background behind it, to contrast with the background. Currently, the text color changes only when users turn on the monochrome mode, that would break the color of applets like "Color picker". See the screenshots.
