I fixed it by generating the file by the utility **qt5ct** which creates the correct config file.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416140 --- Comment #42 from nyanpasu64 --- "Hinting" affects whether characters are reshaped to fit the pixel grid, and does not affect color fringing. "Sub-pixel rendering" affects whether colors are used to represent sub-pixel detail. What is the value of "Sub-pixel rendering", and do colors appear when you set it to RGB (or alternatively set it to something else and back to RGB)? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

See the attached image showing the results of three different tests using neon-user-20210617-0945.iso with Plasma 5.22.1: 1. The default settings 2. After setting Full hinting 3. After installing and setting Roboto fonts (package fonts-roboto-fontface); Full hinting is still active from test #2. Anti-aliasing is enabled by default for all tests. Notice that all three tests do not have the colored fringes around the fonts.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416140 --- Comment #39 from Tony --- (In reply to nyanpasu64 from comment #38) > Works in Plasma 5.22. Should this bug be closed, marked as duplicate of > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431197, or should that bug be marked as > a duplicate of this? This bug is somehow changed, but still persists in some conditions. I've deleted the symbolic link that applies sub pixel rendering system wide. I can see that user specific settings are present in ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf and correctly applied: tony@thinkpad-x230:~/.config/fontconfig$ cat fonts.conf | grep rgb rgb but NOT if file fonts.conf is missing. If i delete fonts.conf and open fonts kcm, fonts.conf doesn't get created; kcm still shows RGB set but it is *not* actually applied. Same situation after a system reboot. If i change some settings in fonts kcm, e.g. changing pixel rendering to none, then fonts.conf is created and settings are correctly applied. Changing again pixel rendering to rgb finally works. So, conclusions are: on KDE Neon when file font.conf is missing, such as on a freshly installed system, or if it is deleted, it should be recreated as soon as possible, either by copying a skeleton system file, either by reflecting system wide settings. In the last case, as rgb-subpixel rendering symlink is missing, it should be set to none in kcm, to reflect system state. For a new user, fonts kcm is in an inconsistent state, showing settings not actually applied, so bug is still present. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416140 --- Comment #34 from Vladimir Yerilov --- Yeah, bug reports are already in place, but anyway, I believe sharing these notes here as well is worthwhile since this bugreport is about the only setting in Plasma that (somehow) relates to the described effects, and that setting doesn't work neither system-wide (symlink needed) nor for apps I mentioned.

If fontconfig is set up correctly then certain apps not behaving accordingly is likely a problem with Qt or the app. You may be asking how to tell ^^ If this command > fc-match -v|grep -i rgba outputs the correct value then fontconfig is technically correctly configured.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416140 --- Comment #28 from Vladimir Yerilov --- There's another aspect of this problem. Adding a symlink to /etc/fonts/conf.d resolves sub-pixel rendering in general, but some parts of Plasma and KDE apps do not benefit from that setting. Affected parts are: 1. Okular's contents (not just some specific filetypes, anything, even txt files are grey-scale). Okular's UI elements are fine though. 2. Some parts of KInfoCenter: its Energy section has grey-scale buttons "Change Percentage" and "Energy Consumption", and below is affected graph's labels comprised of small blurry numbers. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416140 --- Comment #27 from Harald Sitter --- The KCM currently never writes the RGB setting from what I can tell. Culprit is FontAASettingsStore which seems to never set m_subPixelChanged and thus never syncs it into the Config object for writing to disk. Which in the end means the setting is just never added to the user config. At a glance m_hintingChanged may have the same problem, not sure if there's a bug report about hinting possibly also not applying. @Nate? Both only apply if and only if the config replicated by https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=432539 don't already contain the setting. IOW if the config file already has a value it will get updated, if it doesn't it never gets added to the file because of the bug in the SettingsStore. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416140 --- Comment #22 from Tony --- I can add a comment: fresh neon user-edition installation (20200514), first access in KCM fonts, we have the button Apply enabled and are being asked to Accept, Discard, Delete with no action done. This happens only the first time. Next accesses in KCM fonts are good: you do nothing, you are not being asked anything. News is, on the first access, if you Accept the settings, the file ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf is created and it contains the setting: rgb that applies rgb-subpixel rendering without creating the global link. Screenshots have been added. So, now the settings actually reflect the machine status.

Hello Nate, i've just installed current neon unstable in a VM and taken a look at KCM fonts settings. I can't no longer see the "Apply" button enabled with no changes made, as per a bug report added to this one as duplicated, but the original bug regarding sub-pixel-rendering not applied is still there. I have attached some files. Fonts.conf is the local setting file and there is no trace of rgb sub-pixel rendering enabled into it, even if it is set in KCM. Two screenshots made with Kate, depicting text with rgb sub-pixel rendering enabled in KCM and no link in /etc/fonts/conf.d and one with the created link.
