Attempt to change window decoration

SUMMARY

My window decorations are stuck on something I did not choose. I can open System Settings --> Appearance --> Window Decorations and try to change it, but no matter which one I choose and hit "Apply", it has no effect. I have tried logging out and back in, and even restarting. The font size is stuck at 8 pt, even though under 'Fonts' I've selected 14 pt as the window title font. Basically, I can change nothing about the window titlebar.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Go to System Settings --> Appearance --> Window Decorations and try to select any theme (say, Breeze)
2. Go to System Settings --> Appearance --> Fonts and try to change the window title font size

OBSERVED RESULT

Neither the window decorations nor the font size change.

EXPECTED RESULT

I should be able to change the window decorations and the title font size

I'm afraid Plasma 5.24 is unfortunately no longer eligible for support or maintenance from KDE.

Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one. Please update to Plasma 5.27 as soon as your distro offers it to you. In this case, you can get it by upgrading to Kubuntu 22.10. If you need support for Plasma 5.224, please contact your distro, who bears the responsibility of providing support for older non-LTS releases.

If this issue is still reproducible in Plasma 5.27, feel free to re-open this bug report.

Thanks for understanding!
