Title bar not transparent

[Rmdhn1]

I've added a fourth value to the colour scheme, and the menu and tool bar ARE transparent, but the title bar isn't!

[Luwx]

Have you restarted kwin?

[Rmdhn1]

how? i've restarted the pc tho,

[Luwx]

That's really strange. Does it also happen with the Breeze decoration?

[Rmdhn1]

actually, yeah, even with the breeze application style

[doncsugar]

It's because of the new headers. A quick fix is to remove the [Colors:Header] and [Colors:Header][Inactive] sections from the color scheme. You might also need to change activeBackground and inactiveBackground to the backgroundNormal color under [Colors:Window] or the titlebar will be a separate color from the rest of the header.

The header colors override the window titlebar's colors.

[Rmdhn1]

Doesn't work?

It (still) works for me:

I even pasted your colors directly into a file, but I only see it breaking with color schemes with headers. I am on KDE 5.23.3, Frameworks 5.87.0, Qt 5.15.2.

In any case, @Luwx did you plan on supporting headers? I personally wanted a bit more control over the tinting/shading of the header area—it can look a bit washed out depending on window color.

[Rmdhn1]

Also on KDE 5.23.3 and QT 5.15.2, but i'm on frameworks 5.88.0

[kimwnasptd]

I was playing around with a WhiteSur theme and had the same issue.

The #142 (comment) above from @Rmdhn1 did the trick for me as well. I had to remove the two mentioned sections.

KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.86.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

[Rmdhn1]

hmmm, then my issue seems to be different? as that doesn't seem to fix it, but both of you are on previous Frameworks version

[doncsugar]

@Rmdhn1, I compiled from source on latest neon user edition (Plasma 5.23.3, Frameworks 5.88, Qt 5.15.3) and it is working.

What does the Lightly color scheme look like on a newly opened Dolphin window?

[Rmdhn1]

@doncsuga always built from source, colour scheme looked like above screenshot

[emielmolenaar]

I am on Kubuntu 21.10 and having the same issue (restarted my PC just to be sure).

The #142 (comment) above from @Rmdhn1 did the trick for me as well. I had to remove the two mentioned sections.

Do I have to remove these sections from colors/Lightly.colors in the source directory of the theme? These sections do not exist in that file on my installation (just installed from the master branch). Any ideas?

KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.88.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Graphics Platform: X11

[PaPerseller]

the way #142 (comment) supplied by @Rmdhn1 still not work on my pc. both with lightly and breeze color scheme.
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

[Akruidenberg]

Same for me.

[doncsugar]

I'm beginning to think this problem is more than just Plasma and Frameworks versions. When I switched to Arch, the Disk Usage bar in Dolphin looked correct. #69 shows the broken bar. It may not be a surprise that the titlebar also behaves properly.

For the 2 screenshots, I used the following configuration:

Application Style: Lightly
Window Decorations: Lightly
Color Scheme: Lightly

Here are my current versions:

Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.93.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3
Graphics Platform: X11

Just to be sure, what is everyone's OS? I'll try and test a few distros to see where the problem shows up.

Well this is strange. I tested Lightly with some live USBs and did not have problems with the titlebar, but I know in the past I have run into the issue. Is it fixed now @Luwx ?

Using these settings:
Application Style: Lightly
Window Decorations: Lightly
Color Scheme: Lightly

I tested:

KDE Neon 5.24
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.93.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

• Titlebar seems to work and is translucent and blurred.
• KCapacity bar is not styled

Manjaro
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

• Both source and prepackaged versions seem to work
• The source version seems to have the slider/bar background part thinner than its fill part. (e.g. the gray part is thicker than the blue part)

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.93.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

• Blur seems to work
• In the source version, kcapacity bar is broken and the slider's background is thin

[Luwx]

This really seems to be a configuration issue, not sure exactly where, but probably not in Lightly part.
The thinner slider background is intentional.

[doncsugar]

Ha ha, darn, I was not a fan of the thinner slider backgrounds.

I think the titlebar issue may be resolved, at least on newer versions of KDE. I am somewhat worried it is not clear that Lightly consists of both an Application Style and a Window Decoration and people are getting confused.
