Thread: Visual glitches in ProcessWidget




Visual glitches in ProcessWidget

ProcessWidget is tinkering with its palette, causing two
undesirable 
effects:

1. The colors it chooses are commonly indistinguishable from
the window 
background (i.e. in any scheme where background() == mid(),
e.g. 
'[Digital] CDE', 'Dark Blue', 'Solaris', 'High Contrast
Black')

2. Styles that draw using the highlight color draw
incorrectly.

...not to mention that hard-coding of colors as done by
several parts 
(grepview, to name one) is A Bad Thing; these need to be
configurable 
somehow (for a REALLY nasty example, consider the effect of
using 'High 
Contrast Blue'). Is this being done in KDevelop4? (I wonder
if this sort 
of thing should be system-wide - and more importantly,
scheme specific - 
ala <ht
tps://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136719>...) KATE
gets away 
with its application scheme system because you are never
combining a 
system scheme color with a KATE scheme color. The
alternative of course 
would be for ProcessWidget to do likewise; draw the list
itself (NOT THE 
SCROLLBARS!) and use an application scheme background color
rather than 
the system scheme color.

Is the palette changing really needed, or can it be removed?
