--- Comment #2 from Riccardo Robecchi <sephiroth...@hotmail.it> --- Apologies in advance, this is going to be a bit long. Themes have nothing to do, in fact, with colours as "how the screen displays colours". Which brings back a long-standing issues of calling application themes "colours". How does a user distinguish between "colours" in the sense of "themes" from "colours" in the sense of "colour management" (e.g., ICC profiles)? Isn't that really confusing? If you really plan to move ICC profiles, gamma etc to the "Themes & Colours" section, I feel like there has to be some serious re-thinking of names, because it is not going to be clear - I still, after more than a decade of using Plasma, struggle to bend to the usage of "colours" in the sense of "themes", so I can only imagine what it's like for a newcomer. Having said this, I feel like there is a very clear distinction between "colours" in the sense of "theming" and "colours" in the sense of "the way colours are displayed on your screen". They are not the same and they should not be mixed. I think you could concede that "the way colours are displayed on your screen" is a lot closer to "screen configuration" than "themes configuration". At the moment, "Night light" appears like a sub-section of "Global Theme": how does that make sense? Lastly, there is something to be said about consistency with the status quo in other platforms. While KDE should not do things a certain way just because others do them that way, I think that going against what *everyone else* is doing is not a great idea, either, and literally everyone else is placing their "night light" equivalent under the "screen" section, not anywhere near the "themes" section (where that exists). So new users who come to the platform will probably look for the "night light" setting (and other screen colour settings) under "display", not under "themes". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
