Description David Chmelik 2021-08-16 02:02:02 UTC

SUMMARY
After you use a dark theme, clipboard is permanently dark/unreadable.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set dark theme/colours.
2. Set light theme/colours.
3. Look at clipboard.

OBSERVED RESULT
Clipboard is still dark grey on black, at some close distance from screen, virtually unreadable even for people with perfect vision.

EXPECTED RESULT
Clipboard should change back to light theme/colours when you change settings->colors to something light.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Slackware64-current
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.84.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

And the dark themes should be improved: dark grey on black is a horrible choice, usually almost unreadable, at some close distance, even for people with perfect vision.

Can you attach a screenshot or set of screenshots or a screen recording that shows the problem? Are you using the Oxygen Plasma theme? If not, which exact Plasma theme or color scheme? How are you setting them? Directly, or by applying a Global Theme?

It's now not happening after an update.  I use Oxygen theme, but I use Breeze colours altered so the title-bars are one colour instead of a gradient and in the case of dark, background to boxes is black (no other alterations.)

If the Frameworks 5.85 update fixed it, it's because you were suffering from Bug 438854, which I fixed in that release. :)
