Created attachment 125944 [details] Image showing the issue, the white text on the selector is almost impossible to read. SUMMARY Plasma's audio volume applet has a selector to choose the audio source (for example, the rear mic input), it renders fine using themes like Breeze and Breeze dark but if Oxygen theme is used the text on the selector becomes illegible because it renders as white text on a white background (see attached screenshot). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set Plasma theme to Oxygen. 2. Open the Audio volume applet on the taskbar. 3. Observe the audio source selector OBSERVED RESULT The audio source selector renders the source name as white text, but because the selector background colour is white too it becomes illegible. This may be an Oxygen bug or a plasma-pa bug, but I decided to report it here since I only observed this behaviour in the audio volume control applet (for the moment). EXPECTED RESULT Either the source name text colour should be changed to a darker one or the background colour of the selector should be changed in some way to make the white text legible. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Kubuntu 19.10 KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.67.0 Qt Version: 5.12.4
yeah, it would be good to know whether this is a generic problem with QML comboboxes, or if it's a plasma-pa issue. Do you observe the same bug in other places where there are comboboxes drawn with QML? For example, there are a bunch in the settings window that you can get to by right-clicking the desktop and choosing "Configure Desktop..." Also, this UI was just changed in Plasma 5.18 to not even have a combobox here, so it's automatically fixed in the next version if you don't see it anywhere else.
Created attachment 126130 [details] screenshot on Plasma 5.18 Same thing here. Also "Default device" button is unreadable and "pin" icon in the upper right corner is invisible. Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.67.0 Qt Version: 5.14.1
Let's set aside the pin button for right now. Do you see the same issue with other QML comboboxes in Plasma? Say, in the media controller applet when there is more than one audio source?
yes, the combobox of Media Player applet is also affected.
I can confirm that other QML comboboxes in the dekstop configuration are not affected, in my case it seems to be reduced to the audio volume applet. In my case the pin is not invisible, but the combobox in the media selection applet is affected. Does that mean that the bug is in the system tray applets?
Looks like it, yeah.
