Bug ID: 500157
Summary: Group indicator icon has lost its contrast
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.3.0
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Task Manager and Icons-Only Task Manager widgets
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: epictux...@proton.me
CC: qydwhotm...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
Since https://invent.kde.org/plasma/libplasma/-/merge_requests/1214, accent
colors follow the color scheme. Using Breeze Dark with dark tasbar, that would
be blue... in a blue background (when app is selected).
I believe that being green was actually a good idea because it gave more
contrast to the fact that there are multiple windows of the same app open. Now
that it follows the accent color the contrast is lost.
(To clarify, the contrast is lost only when the selected app has multiple
windows. But also not too good when not selected.)
The screenshot from the MR examplifies this:
Before -

After -
https://invent.kde.org/-/project/2485/uploads/31ae7f2c5f1dd144027a0eeec322ca86/after-breezedark.png
Notice in those screenshots that being green gave it more contrast, which the
author of the MR even said: "[it] is pretty eye-catching" — which I believe
was the intention behind it.
I think that the change should be reverted and/or we should use some other
color or add anything that can give more contrast (maybe an outline to the
group indicator icon?).
Thanks.
