Bug ID: 511432
Summary: Switching wallpapers 'Based on day-night cycle'
doesn't work properly
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.5.1
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Day/night schedule
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Depending on your global day/night theme settings the wallpaper's counterpart
doesn't work.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select Breeze Twilight as your light theme and Breeze Dark as your dark
theme, configure Day/Night cycle, and let the themes switch accordingly.
2. Set your wallpaper to the Next wallpaper (or any wallpaper with a proper
light and dark variant)
3. Set "Switch dynamic wallpapers" to 'Based on the day-night cycle' (which is
the same cycle as for the theme)
OBSERVED RESULT
You get the wallpaper's dark variant 24/7, that is it doesn't switch between
light and dark variant according to the day-night cycle.
EXPECTED RESULT
Well i would expect from my understanding that the wallpaper switches between
light and dark variant based on the day-night cycle. However, the wallpaper
just follows the plasma style, which for the Breeze Twilight happens to be
Breez Dark (whereas the color scheme is set to Breeze Light). Now the
wallpaper should follow its setting, and 'Based on whether the Plasma style is
light or dark' happens to be a different setting.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Manjaro Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0
Qt Version: 6.10.0
Kernel Version: 6.12.56-1-MANJARO (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This might be related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=511377 - somehow
the "Switch dynamic wallpapers" settings don't seem to work well. Before 6.5
there wasn't such a setting and the wallpaper's variant was presumably chosen
to follow the color scheme. Now although there are fine granular settings the
wallpaper seemingly only follows the Plasma style in most cases.
