SUMMARY The contents of some text fields in the settings for the system monitor widgets is sometimes invisible. The only way to see the text is by selecting it with the mouse cursor. See attached video. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add a system monitor widget to the desktop (e.g., "Memory Usage") 2. Go into the settings for the widget and look through the various pages. OBSERVED RESULT Several of the text input fields appear blank, but actually contain invisible text. In the example of the "Memory Usage" widget with default settings, this affects the "Start from Angle" and "Total Pie Angle" fields on the "Pie Chart Details" page, and if you click the edit icon on any of the sensors on the "Sensors Details" page, the resulting text box will also contain invisible text. EXPECTED RESULT All of the text should be visible. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: KDE neon 6.0 User Edition KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2

Created attachment 167279 [details] video showing the bug Whoops! It's attached now.
I can't reproduce the issue. I suspect it may be related to the color sin your active color scheme or Plasma theme. Can you reproduce it in a new clean user account?

Can you reproduce it in a new > clean user account? Aah! The issue only appears when using "Breeze Twilight" (light application theme with dark plasma theme). Perhaps the affected text boxes are getting their text color from the plasma theme rather than the application theme? I tested this in a KDE neon VirtualBox install (X11), rebooting between each theme change as the plasma theme didn't fully change over until I did.
Yeah, looks like it. Can reproduce that now.
Created attachment 168618 [details] new look of the bug (pie chart details) With the upgrade to Plasma 6.0.4 and Frameworks 6.1.0, this bug has changed its colors, literally. Previously, the text color for certain widgets was being pulled from the dark plasma theme, conflicting with the light application theme making the white text impossible to read against the white background (when using Twilight). Now, the widget background is also being pulled from the plasma theme, leading to cases of hard to read black text on a dark background and white check marks instead of black.
