Bug ID: 401644
Summary: Certain Plasmoid textual elements have poor legibility
when used with transparent themes
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: tyx...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Currently using fairly transparent themes can be troublesome because some
plasmoid textual elements have poor legibility.
The problem is present in pretty much all of the plasmoids.
As exemplified in the case of Kickoff's menu item subtitles, the code sets the
opacity at 60% when inactive and 80% when active, which is the cause of the
legibility problems. IMO a better solution would be e.g. to call upon the
"inactive text" class color (although this value in Breeze would need
adjusting, Breeze Dark is fine).
OBSERVED RESULT
See screenshot: https://i.redd.it/4np7y2i3w4021.png
Some plasmoids' text when using transparent's themes is not legible when the
plasmoid is superimposed over a lighter background.
EXPECTED RESULT
See screenshot when calling upon inactive text color of Breeze Dark:

Text is legible.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I would be thrilled to do work related to this myself and implement any kind of
suggestions from more experienced people, but I'd need to know if it would be
up for consideration when reviewed.
