How to increase the opacity, size or change color of window indicators in task bar?

I recently installed CachyOS with KDE 6, and I love this DE. I am playing with themes and customizations, and there is one problem I can’t figure out. I applied transparency effects to the taskbar and start menu, but because of that, the window indicators in the taskbar, especially those of unfocused windows, blend with the background and are hard to see:

The indicators of the system settings and dolphin on the right are barely visible since they blend in with the bright parts of the background. Since it’s a small part of the screen, it’s even harder to see on a large screen without zooming in. I searched the panel’s settings and the system settings, but couldn’t find how to increase the opacity, size, or change the color of the indicators to make them more visible. Does anyone know how to customize the window indicators to make them more visible?

The easiest way is just switch wallpaper or theme :stuck_out_tongue:

But have you tried adjusting the blur/transparency level?

It didn’t work well. Maybe I am tweaking the wrong settings. I am also using a Kvantum theme, if that makes any difference. However, the overall transparency of the taskbar and other UI elements is good for me. Just the indicators aren’t visible enough. Increasing their size, or changing their color to something more visible, would be a better solution in my opinion.

Use a plasma theme with better contrast between widgets, eg breeze
