Description Ignat Semenov 2010-05-22 18:25:20 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 4.4 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

kdebase is rev. 1129428

It is impossible to set widget style in System Settings. There is a preview of the style, but clicking "Apply" has no effect. The widget style always remains the default, that is, Plastique.
Comment 1 Jonathan Marten 2010-06-19 07:03:47 UTC
Had this problem too recently, the cause seemed to be an obsolete entry in ~/.config/Trolltech.conf:

  style=oxygen

If a 'style=' line exists in this file, does removing it fix the problem?
Comment 2 Victor Mataré 2010-09-16 03:19:02 UTC
OK, after removing that line I can set styles, but I need to restart all programs to apply it. So there's probably something else broken, too.
Comment 3 Christoph Feck 2011-07-22 20:10:45 UTC
Do you still have this problem with a recent KDE version (4.6.3 or later)? Can you check if the same issue is visible when you log into a freshly added user account?
Comment 4 Victor Mataré 2011-07-24 01:12:45 UTC
The current state is the same as after applying that fix in ~/.config/Trolltech.conf. I can set styles, but I need to restart all apps to apply the change. That's basically still a regression, but you may also call it a feature ;-)
