Description Gabriel Barros 2025-04-13 18:41:54 UTC
SUMMARY
Both toolbar and navigation bar buttons (though not navigation input box) are affected by titlebar foreground color, but not background, when "make window titlebars accent colored" is enabled.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. pick a contrasting accent color (e.g. bright yellow with breeze dark)
2. enable "make window titlebars accent colored" in KDE colors setting.
3. open dolphin

OBSERVED RESULT
the navigation bar buttons and the toolbar buttons, which are not the titlebar, will change foreground color to the titlebar foreground color (black, to contrast with bright yellow in the example), while keeping the black background (from the breeze dark background, in the example)

note that this will be true for non-dark breeze too, but then it will be white on white.

when windows loose focus (and the new title bar color goes away and return to be white text on black, as in the breeze dark example), the buttons return to have white on black imagery.

EXPECTED RESULT
Nothing outside of the titlebar to change colors via an option called "do something to titlebar"
