Version: (using KDE 4.3.0) Compiler: i386 OS: Linux Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages System Monitor - Network Settings > Advanced > In and Out color. The actual colors used are reversed for In/Out. See the attached image (downloading in progress).
Created attachment 36585 [details] sysmon network widget - reverse color Note the In, Out color specified in the Network Settings and the ones used in the graph below (on panel, left of date) - _downloading_ is in progress.
Graph colors are not configurable anymore. If you need more configuration options check if these help: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Complex+Plotter?content=111400 http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Analog+Meter?content=111651
Well that is a "solution" for sure... But removing such an option is bound to create other issues, especially with different color schemes. The fixed (as chosen by the developer) two colors for the graphs need not play well the Desktop Theme and/or the Color scheme. So, I am not sure whether this a desired solution! The two mentioned plasmoids, Complex Plotter and Analog Meter, are in a very very nascent stage! Also, they are more suited to the desktop as opposed to the panel. Clearly to me, these are not viable replacements :|
Yes they are early on development but I think they can be configured to work on panel pretty nicely. What comes to system monitor Network meter still has hard coded colors which should be generated from current theme, but that is going to change.
Good to know that the hard coded colors are (and hopefully, will be) derived from the Color scheme. That should provide some consistency. Thanks.
