Description PK 2018-11-22 18:29:25 UTC 
SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE

3. startup firefox

OBSERVED RESULT

(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.52.0
Qt Version: 5.11.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
They are doing a good job at mozilla with firefox. Only it is such a shame that it looks like a "stranger" in my kde environment. It doesn't at all adapt to the system color scheme. It makes me sad.

This is Firefox' task to do, not ours. There's also no API to style the browser from an extension, this can only be done from themes.

To bad. But thank you for your reply!
Comment 3 PK 2018-11-23 11:04:22 UTC 
It just occurred to me: perhaps one could cheat and use Mozilla's own "firefox color" addon https://color.firefox.com/ . It is still "experimental" as they say. It doesn't color the search box highlights and the scroll bar handle. But perhaps when that arrives it is possible to use the code in the plasma-browser-integration.
It's just a thought...
