Hi, do you add the widget on the desktop or on the dashboard? There have been a few reports about the color of notes not changing on the dashboard, but it was always working on the desktop in these cases.
Comment 2 Manuel Tortosa 2011-12-06 12:56:01 UTC
Fails on both dashboard and desktop. Actually after cnanging the colour the rc file looks like this:

[Containments][46][Applets][49][Configuration]
Share=false
autoSaveHtml=<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd">\n<html><head><meta name="qrichtext" content="1" /><style type="text/css">$
color=yellow-notes
scrollValue=0

so somehow the config is not being written to plasma-desktop-appletsrc
Comment 3 Aaron J. Seigo 2011-12-06 16:01:42 UTC
what plasma desktop (svg) theme are you using?
Comment 4 Manuel Tortosa 2011-12-06 16:08:48 UTC
Plain vanilla kde config "Air" but does not matter. using another theme (i tried like 5) i get the same results, with or without composition.

Comment 6 Manuel Tortosa 2011-12-07 15:19:38 UTC
Sorry but i backported the commit to the 4.8 beta 2 tarball and does not seems to fix nothing. The colour does not change. Theorically the default colour in the drop-down list is white but the note appear as yellow. After changing the 
colour and apply, the colour still remains yellow.

As you can see in the rc, the color value never changes from yellow-notes, does not matter the color i choose:

Comment 7 Anne-Marie Mahfouf 2011-12-07 17:45:55 UTC
Sorry yes, I tested with the right click menu and the setting is written but in fact not kept and then I discovered the combobox setting and this one does not work at all.

In the code m_topWidget->color() stays at "yellow-notes" and what I thought would be a trivial fix is a bit more complicated. I'll look deeper in it and meanwhile I'm reopening this report.
Comment 8 Manuel Tortosa 2011-12-07 17:52:35 UTC
