SUMMARY *** - When certain wallpapers are set, accent color apply process loops (GIF 1) - In GIF 1/2/3, and color scheme tests described below, only 'Tint all colors with accent color' was enabled and the resulting scheme was saved, no other changes. - maybe transition animation is being looped as well, 'apply' button while selecting other color scheme gets activated automatically, display frames missing when it loops, appears while continuous scrolling (Video 2 and 3). - Happens on breeze dark, not on breeze light/classic. Not happening on Krita dark/bright/dark orange/darker/neutral. - Krita blender is a weird case. The loop doesn't occur with the same wallaper. But it loops when the wallpaper is set to plain color #1d99f3 (tried random other colors, doesn't happen). - Even weirder, I tracked down the image to https://peapix.com/bing/40080, downloading the image and setting as 'image' wallpaper doesn't cause any loops, only when setting through 'Bing Image of the day' does it occur. *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Pick breeze dark (or krita blender) and enable 'Tint all colors with accent color', save and apply the scheme. 2. Set wallpaper to Bing daily. Hopefully whatever the latest wallpaper triggers this. (Found the specific image in my reference:https://peapix.com/bing/40080, but doesn't loop when applied manually). Or try fixed color #1d99f3 if using krita blend to see if it triggers the loop. OBSERVED RESULT Accent color apply process loops forever, causing the entire desktop to 'glow' and 'pulsate'. Window/scrolling animations get choppy when this happens, sometimes the panel area flashes bright green while moving windows. EXPECTED RESULT Accent color + window tint should be applied once.

I have periodically encountered this too. I haven't managed to nail down what causes it. Restarting plasmashell fixes the issue.

Cannot reproduce. There is no recent bugreport so I think it's fixed.
Indeed, I have not seen it myself in git master for some time now. I normally run with settings that can reproduce this issue, but Breeze Light instead of Breeze Dark. I've tried it with Breeze Dark and a 200+ image slideshow that changes every 5 seconds. No images triggered the issue. Let's call it fixed until we get more reports of it.
