<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">I seem to recall that the colour theme selector kcm had an effect like it has under X11: applying the new theme to running applications instantly. I can no longer reproduce this. My work on getting this package to OS X has been a very informal approach. It's only been the other day that I realised it could have some value for the transition to KF5, and rounded up everything, tested with the latest kde-workspace version and then made this RR. <br style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;" />
So my recollection can be wrong, and it could even be that it's expectable that KDE/Mac doesn't even respect all colour choices for all GUI elements.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">For instance, I'm now seeing that simple applications like systemsettings or kwalletmanager ignore (almost) all colour choices, kate and kdevelop use them for the edit views but not lists/frames and digikam uses almost all selected colours (but that app has a builtin theme selector).</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">I've reverted to kde-workspace 4.11.9 (the one from KDE 4.12.5; MacPorts keeps snapshots one can switch back and forth between) and as far as I can tell those observations are not the result of my changes to krdb.cpp .</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">Thomas seemed knowledgable about how Qt4 works on OS X; to what extent is this to be expected, and to what extent might we be able to improve this? (If improvement it is on a platform that basically allows only the text selection highlight colour to be customised...)<br style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;" />
What (missing) things might I look for aside updates to kdeglobal.rc (which I realise I haven't even done yet)?</p></pre>

The main interest is having the systemsettings control panel to control the various relevant KDE settings among which desktop search, fonts, colours and even style.<br style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;" />
The oxygen style builds and looks good but shows some updating glitches due to compositing.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">I'm submitting this patch partly in hope it may be useful in bringing kf5-workspace to OS X, one day.</p></pre>
