Hi, I'm trying out a home-made dark theme, and almost everything is working nicely, but the Fonts in the session tabs in Konsole are coming out black on dark grey (see the attached snapshot), making them very hard to read. Which of the colours in the Widget Colour pane of Appearance & Themes => Colors is associated with that part of Konsole?
Leslie
Hello,
If I remember correctly, the black color is probably hardcoded there. I think it should be quick enough to fix it to make use of the standard text color, but I'm currently a little too busy to do this.
As a temporary workaround you can change the color of each tab from the context menu of the tab (or the relevant shortcut if you have set one).
TDE in general seems to need some refinement when it comes to dark themes, so it's a good thing if such rough edges are reported and fixed.

It isn't hardcoded, because the text is white for me. I'm sure I never did anything to explicitly set the konsole tab text colour in particular, so I have to assume that it's pulling from my theme. However, I have no idea why my system is behaving differently.

Maybe I am missing something here. I can't believe that *I* (the non-technical guy) must point out this feature.
Assuming that you mean the TDE konsole (spelt with K after the old KDE version) ...
Go to Settings, the Schema and maybe also Font, where you can make it look like almost anything you want, maybe even lavender text on a puce background. (Mine is actually terminal green on terminal black, thanks!)
You can also save the session profile with a name, and set it as default, so that your konsole always looks how you want it.

Nope; just like in Gnome applications, the Konsole theme settings don't touch the Menu or the tabs settings, they're controlled by Trinity Control Center.

Oh, so it is not the terminal itself, but the UI, the borders, that sort of thing? If so, then I stand corrected. I misunderstood the intention of the question.

And for me, the konsole tab text is lavender (or the somesuch.) I do not believe it has always been so, but I do not know when it might have changed. I know I never set/changed it. It matters not to me -- as long as I can read it.

Sorry, I didn't get your response to the thread yet, so I hadn't read it, or I might have written something different than lavender. Honest!
However, that's an interesting coincidence, nonetheless ...
