Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2015-11-25 13:06:09 UTC 
Controls which currently have keyboard focus (where pressing Space will activate them) are hardly distinguishable from other controls.

An unchecked CheckBox has a faint blue border, a checked one has nothing. A flat ToolButton doesn't have any indication of focus. This is bad for accessiblity and makes testing keyboard navigation hard.

Reproducible: Always

Hi Kai,
You're talking about the plasma theme ? Or the widget style ?

The Plasma theme.
Comment 4 Andrew Crouthamel 2018-09-25 22:55:20 UTC 
I can confirm this when using keyboard navigation on current Breeze theme.

Marco fixed pushbuttons with https://cgit.kde.org/plasma-framework.git/commit/?id=1d6870b156241496af56caf736fe611a7ec5467e

Flat ToolButtons seems to be fixed now too. Looks like checkboxes are still broken though. Slider handles could also use a better effect. It's visible, but very faint.
