This happens when you use the Breeze Dark *icon theme* and you have a GTK application that doesn't respect the color scheme properly. The icons re-color themselves to be appropriate for a dark background, but the app fails to provide that dark background. A few questions: 1. Do any other GTK apps become dark as expected? For example, Gedit? 2. Is Grub Customizer a GTK2 app? 3. What distro are you using, and what version of Plasma do you have?

I installed Gedit and it has a different contrast issue, this time the issue is with font contrast and line highlighting. (https://imgur.com/dZK1pi4) 2. Not sure. 3. Operating System: KDE neon 5.25 User Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.96.0 Qt Version: 5.15.5 Kernel Version: 5.11.0-37-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 2 × Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU E7500 @ 2.93GHz Memory: 3.8 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: NVCE Manufacturer: MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO.,LTD Product Name: MS-7529 System Version: 1.0 The Gedit issue is a bug in Gedit itself. If Grub Customizer uses GTK3, it's a bug in the app. If it uses GTK2 or WxWidgets or something else, then this is expected because the Breeze GTK theme only applies to GTK3 and GTK4 apps; applying it to others was just too much of a maintenance headache and had to be removed. |
Created attachment 151336 [details] Low contrast of icons I'm not sure if this issue is specific to the Grub Customizer or the Brisa GTK theme. There are actually two problems that I noticed in the Grub Customizer, the first is the low contrast of all the icons in the interface and the second is that I should be using the Breeze GTK Dark theme, as I use Breeze Dark in Plasma.
