Created attachment 167624 [details] picture of discover settings SUMMARY The Settings page in Discover uses a new background color for the row, which is generated from the color-schemes [Colors:Window] -> BackgroundNormal value, this however does not work properly for very dark themes, e.g. pure black window color leads to white text on almost white background. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Use color-scheme Breeze-Dark 2. Change Window-background color to pure-black #000000 3. Open Discover Settings OBSERVED RESULT Settings almost unreadable, background color is almost white. EXPECTED RESULT The colors from my color-scheme should not be "manipulated" and the background should just be black. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2
Created attachment 167625 [details] color-scheme
Added color-scheme (default breeze-dark with only one color changed to black). Why does a white-greyish color (#BEBEBE) when changing a color to black. It is impossible to change this color without also changing the window-background of lets say the calculator app, Maybe there should be an option to set this color specifically in the color-scheme (where #BEBEBE wich is 190,190,190 in dez) is never even present. Anyways somehow the behind-the-options stuff that generates this color is not working properly for dark colors.
These are standard SwipeListItem delegates apparently. Moving to Kirigami.
bump: discover settings page is the only thing that seems to be affected. is the SwipeListItem not used anywhere else? And why cant discover set the normal default background overwritting whatever kirigami sets as the standard?
Why would Discover override something that is not specific to Discover? This is the relevant code in Discover: https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kirigami/-/blob/master/src/controls/SwipeListItem.qml?ref_type=heads#L150 Maybe we shouldn't be using the highlighted text without a highlighted background I guess.
because the current background color comes from out of nowhere and cannot be configured in kde color-scheme settings. thats bad, but if a fix in Kirigami takes more effort/ time why not do what was done in qt5 and use the normal background color that is used everywhere else and can be configured? the color looks out of place in any color scheme even breeze default and is nowhere to be found in the color-scheme file.
bump: still a problem in plasma 6.1: breaking all dark color-schemes
plasma 6.2: discover settings still not readable for any dark color-scheme
plasma 6.2.4 the issue is resolved and background color in settings is as expected
