Description W Sanders 2024-01-17 20:19:52 UTC
Description:
It would be nice to have the taskbar icons the same colors as the big ones. Right now, since they are grey like other taskbar icons they tend to blend in with everything else.

Another alternative is to make the line width for the symbol inside the icon two pixels wide instead of 1. Or reverse the colors, making the background white or light grey, so the symbol stands out more. 

One used to be able to change the backgound color of the KDE taskbar, which helped, but this doesn't seem to be easy to change anymore.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Alway reproduceable when a document is open.
2.
3.

Actual Results:
Taskbar icon tends to blend in with all the other grey taskbar icons.

Expected Results:
Multicolored or more prominent taskbar icons.


Reproducible: Always

Ooops, in the original description I didn't leave much detail about the OS. In Windows, the taskbar icons *are* various colors. So the all-grey icons may be specific to KDE, or maybe even to KDE's Breeze theme. So I can see how this might be "upstream."
Comment 7 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2024-02-05 11:03:43 UTC
Thanks for the extra details. This KDE + Wayland issue is actually already tracked in bug 125934, so I mark as a duplicate.
