Description Nicolas Fella 2021-12-15 23:55:46 UTC 
The "Background color" setting in Configure Yakuake > Appearance is confusing. Users seem to expect that this changes the terminal's background color (which is reasonable). However the setting controls something else entirely, namely it controls the background color of the window chrome, which cannot even be seen with the default Breeze skin. It can be seen for example with the "Legacy" skin
