Description postix 2020-01-16 12:00:55 UTC
If you have downloaded and installed a theme from the "get new themes" window it will first show up in the KCM window once your closed the "get new themes" window again. However, it would be convenient if the KCM gets updated in real time.

Is it just the lookandfeel KCM, or does this happen with all other KCMs too?

Probably for all where the main window becomes deactivated while the sub window ("Download new stuff") is opened.
For example the wallpaper window shows the same issue. 

Surely, it's not really a big deal, but I think it would be fancy. :)

Thanks.

or we just make the dialog modal.
Comment 5 Dan Leinir Turthra Jensen 2020-01-20 10:08:31 UTC
iirc the original dialog is modal, so it'd probably make sense for the new one to be as well (since, also, that particular method is supposed to be a kind of stop-gap porting aid more than anything else, and KNSQuick's Page is what /should/ be used, rather than the button/dialog).
