[SOLVED] Black text on black backgrounds in plasmoids

[SOLVED] Black text on black backgrounds in plasmoids

Postby Per » Jul 31st, '11, 21:01

I've recently changed from Mandriva to Mageia 1 and I must congratulate you an a nice inaugural release. I do however have a problem. All my plasmoids (at least I think that's what they are called, all the mini programs running in the panel and also the window showing running programs when pressing ALT+TAB) show black text on black background. I seem to remember having the same problem in Mandriva with an early version of KDE 4, but I don't remember how I fixed it.

Well, seems you're using Oxygen theme and black fonts.
Open up systemsettings (KDE control center), go to Appearance, then Workspace Design
(or Desktop Design, don't know what it's called in english) and choose another theme you like.

If that still doesn't suit you, then from systemsettings, go to Appearance of Programs,
and select fonts and colors and styles you like.

Better, de-select the Applying colors in non-kde applications.
It works.
