wrong color discover and telegram tray icons

I can also confirm this behavior on two systems (one X11, one Wayland) after the update to Plasma 6.0.3. Affects the discover update notifier and telegram, among others. I am also using the Twilight theme.

Comment 3 evgeniyharchenko.dev 2024-04-03 14:41:02 UTC 
Same. Also there is a problem with Lock Keys Status (org.kde.plasma.keyboardindicator) plasmoid. There are normal icons when you turn on Caps Lock or Num Lock. But when Caps Lock and Num Lock are turned on together, the icon becomes black. I really don't know what's going on here. The icons are almost the same, at least the color section is.

Comment 5 S. Christian Collins 2024-04-15 14:14:36 UTC 
Perhaps the assigned component of this bug should be changed from "widget explorer" to "icon" or whatever is most appropriate, as this issue clearly affects more than just the widget explorer. Being assigned to the wrong component might hamper this bug's visibility to the pertinent developers.
Comment 6 Timothy B 2024-04-15 14:26:54 UTC 
I'm pretty sure this is a duplicate of bug 482645. It seems that this has been addressed in Plasma 6.0.4 (which will be released very soon as of this comment) with Frameworks 6.1 per bug 482645 comment 26.

I was able to reproduce this with KDE Gear apps (specifically Akregator and Yakuake) on Plasma 6.0.3 with Frameworks 6.1 (and also Frameworks 6.0). Only setting the Plasma theme to Breeze Dark (or any other theme with a dark panel background) was enough to trigger this behavior.
Comment 7 evgeniyharchenko.dev 2024-04-17 13:02:41 UTC 
It seems there is no problem in Plasma 6.0.4. Now it works as it should. Except Lock Keys Status (org.kde.plasma.keyboardindicator). But it is a problem with icon: https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/breeze-icons/-/merge_requests/354/diffs?commit_id=1844fb1ee2fa092df91b4ba523489c9add148bea
Comment 8 Timothy B 2024-04-17 14:51:49 UTC 
I just updated Plasma to 6.0.4 and can confirm that all symbolic icons in the system tray are using the same color as expected, so I think it's now safe to close this issue.

Comment 9 elman 2024-04-18 02:02:11 UTC 
This is not duplicate of bug 482645. Yes, tray icons are resolved, but this issue is about widget explorer, which is not fixed.
Comment 10 Timothy B 2024-04-18 02:30:49 UTC 
Good point. I now realize what this bug ticket originally addressed and noticed that follow-up comments gradually changed the topic to similar behavior in the system tray, which I initially thought was the topic of this report. Therefore, I have changed the title to clarify that this bug specifically affects the Add Widgets sidebar.
Comment 11 evgeniyharchenko.dev 2024-04-26 14:14:21 UTC 
So, about widget explorer`s problem. This problem is because the icon`s color is taken from color scheme (... /share/color-schemes/your_color_scheme.colors) but it should be taken from desktoptheme colors (... /plasma/desktoptheme/your_theme/colors). In both cases icons use colors from [Colors:Window] section.
