Created attachment 158926 [details] A global theme to demonstrate settings being applied SUMMARY It is a bit confusing as to what goes where since different settings work in different, but similar-looking files. E.g. The "defaults" file in the Global Theme's "contents" and the "defaults" inside its "layouts" folder. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a Global theme (a dummy theme named "w" is attached, it is extracted to ~/.local/share/plasma/look-and-feel/) 2. Inside the theme's "contents">"layouts" folder, create a file named "defaults" 3. Add the following to the file: [kwinrc][org.kde.kdecoration2] ButtonsOnRight=SFM BorderSize=Tiny 4. Save the file and apply the Global Theme with its layout OBSERVED RESULT The buttons are changed, but the border size remains Normal. EXPECTED RESULT The buttons should change and the border size should be set (to Tiny in this case).
