Description Jerôme Pouiller 2020-09-30 10:28:44 UTC
Initially, I was about to complain because the option "Randomly adjust colors" also impacted the default foreground color.

I was about to point the commit dc29be39  "Keep perceived contrast in random background color" that has changed this behavior. I discovered that it possible to tune the behavior of "Randomly adjust colors" in the colorscheme file:

  [Foreground]
  Color=178,178,178
  RandomHueRange=0
  RandomSaturationRange=0

  [ForegroundFaint]
  Color=101,101,101
  RandomHueRange=0
  RandomSaturationRange=0

  [ForegroundIntense]
  Color=255,255,255
  RandomHueRange=0
  RandomSaturationRange=0

So, I have solved my small problem. However, I think that this information should appear somewhere in documentation (at least somewhere Google is able to find it).

Maybe a tooltip in the Konsole area where you select "Randomly adjust colors" ?
