The workspace tooltips are very dark. Too dark to read them. See attached screenshot.

Message:
Hm, that's strange. At this point we rely entirely on the default rendering
of tooltips (in contrast to the function argument tips in the editor).
Could you please check, whether other KDE applications are affected as well
(if you don't find other tooltips, try Help->What's this).

Any chance that you are running RKWard in a Gnome session? Could this be
the same issue:

Hi Thomas,

No it doesn't match the colors in the system settings for some reason.
 Should be black text on light blue background.

The tooltips in the editor work, though. And they are shown with exactly
these colors (black on light blue)

Ralf.

Message:
Hi Ralf,

these use the system-wide default colors for tooltips, so most likely,
this is a problem of your color scheme, rather than RKWard.

See (KDE) systemsettings->Look & Feel->Appearance->Colors->Tooltip
background/text . Does that solve the problem?

Regards
Thomas
