I have a bit of a dilemma here, which results from the fact that MacPorts also<br>
provides a whole range of GTk applications, a number of which I happen to use<br>
... with the QtCurve/gtk2 and oxygen-gtk3 themes. From what I understand, the<br>
export of the KDE colour palette choice is handled by krdb.cpp. Is that correct?<br>

What I cannot determine so easily is whether it does more than that. Isn't<br>
applyQtColors() responsible for storing the palette colours into kdeglobals,<br>
from where they're read by the KDE platform plugin theme?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Not quite.

If so, that seems a crucial feature. I just checked: removing the Colors:<br>
categories from my kdeglobals and changing the ColorScheme key didn't change the<br>
colours of newly started applications (my regular colour scheme is hand-tuned to<br>
match the native colour scheme at least as far as window colours go).<br>
<br>
What colours are used when the platform plugin (khintssettings) doesn't find<br>
either any Colors: categories or a ColorScheme string (and the default .colors<br>
file isn't available)?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Which platform plugin are you using? <br></div><div><br></div><div>If the platform plugin doesn't load anything, it seems it will use qt_fusionPalette() which is hardcoded.<br></div><div><br></div><div>David<br></div><div><br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
