***

1. Go to "System Settings > Colors & Themes > Global Theme"
2. Select "Breeze Twilight"
3. Click "Apply"

OBSERVED RESULT
The panel still has the standard "Breeze" theme.

EXPECTED RESULT
The panel should have the "Breeze Dark" theme.

Comment 1 Nate Graham 2024-01-23 21:38:03 UTC 
Cannot reproduce; for me it takes effect immediately. Differences between my setup and yours:

- Distro is Fedora 35 vs Neon Unstable
- Packages built from source myself vs packages from distro repo
- Qt is 6.6.0 vs 6.6.1
- GPU is Intel integrated HD620 vs NVIDIA GTX 950/960
Comment 2 Peter Eszlari 2024-01-27 20:14:41 UTC 
I can reproduce on different computer, with different distro:

Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20240125
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.80
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.249.0
Qt Version: 6.6.1
Kernel Version: 6.7.1-1-default (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-4690 CPU @ 3.50GHz
Memory: 22.4 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 4600
Comment 3 Doug 2024-01-28 06:04:57 UTC 
I cannot reproduce on KDE Neon Testing with Plasma 5.92.90, Frameworks 5.249.0 and QT 6.6.1, so maybe a regression between Plasma 6.0 and 6.1?
Comment 4 Peter Eszlari 2024-10-25 01:46:02 UTC 
I used virt-manager (https://virt-manager.org) to test current KDE Neon in a VM:

https://files.kde.org/neon/images/user/20241023-1251/neon-user-20241023-1251.iso

Still the same problem: after clicking "Apply" only the apps change their theme, panel/startmenu stay unchanged until the next login.

I can reproduce this.
Comment 6 Filip 2025-01-02 17:40:23 UTC 
I can confirm this. I first noticed this a week ago on Plasma 6.2.4 (fresh install of Arch Linux). Also can reproduce on 2 devices, PC with Nvidia GPU and laptop with nouveau.

Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.9.0
Qt Version: 6.8.1
Kernel Version: 6.12.7-arch1-1 (64-bit)
