Bug ID: 357242 Summary: Use theme-defined color for task label shadow Product: plasmashell Version: 5.5.0 Platform: openSUSE RPMs URL: http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Racy+For+Plasma+5 ?content=174633 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: wishlist Priority: NOR Component: Task Manager Assignee: h...@kde.org Reporter: obno...@gmail.com CC: plasma-b...@kde.org quickgit.kde.org/?p=plasma-desktop.git&a=blob&f=applets/taskmanager/plugin/textlabel.cpp line 233 Currently, the task manager arbitrarily chooses the color of the label shadow depending on the text color among two hard-coded options (black or white). It would be nice if it instead tried to use a color defined by the Plasma theme. According to techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Plasma5/ThemeDetails#Colors, there is already an entry in the colors file that is supposed to be used for text decorations. It does not appear to be used anywhere in Plasma at the moment. I think that color (namely, [Colors:Window] DecorationHover) could be used for this purpose, or it could be any other currently unused color. Alternatively, it could be defined by adding a new element in widgets/tasks.svg. If that element isn't present in the file, the task manager could still choose the color itself. This would make sure old unmaintained themes stay unaffected. This would give more leeway for customization (see URL) and could provide an easy way for users to correct problems like bug #313172.
