Try starting kleopatra with the command line option `-platform windows:darkmode=2` or by setting the environment variable QT_QPA_PLATFORM to the value "windows:darkmode=2". This should force the usage of a dark palette, but it's possible that some colors still don't work. Alternatively, try using darkmode=0 which should force the usage of the normal light palette. (I haven't tested this because I don't use Windows.) The next major version of Gpg4win, i.e. version 5.0, should support dark themes on Windows out-of-the-box. See https://dev.gnupg.org/T6932. |
