I am using Microsoft Windows with dark mode enabled. Kmymoney Version 5.2.70-abb34e8
Toolbar is appearing like this
When I hover my cursor, the image is somewhat visible.
What settings to be tweaked to make it alright?
Thank you
Try to start it with an option e.g.
"\Program Files\KMyMoney\bin\kmymoney.exe" --style=fusion
from a command prompt. Maybe, a more recent version of KMyMoney may also improve the situation.
No change when tried as “C:\Users\$User\AppData\Local\Programs\KMyMoney\bin\kmymoney.exe” --style=fusion
You can start KMyMoney with -platform windows:darkmode=1 but it seems the latest version (Version 5.2.1-c9efa7a) suffers from other visibility issues when using the light theme.
I already reported your issue here https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=507817 but it was closed automatically (without being fixed)
That bug was closed automatically by the system. When you reply to a bug which has been set to the NEEDSINFO state, you need to set it back to REPORTED, so the developers get informed that you have provided additional information.
However, you did post this workaround in the bug, so is there anything else that can be done there?
The issue (as best I can tell, as I do not use Windows) is the problems are caused by some interaction(s) between Windows and KDE colors/theming. I’m sure the developers have looked at it, but my understanding is there is nothing reasonable they can do within the KMyMoney code to fix it.
Thank you for the insight on the bug system.
I understand the headaches of Windows UI. I would like to dig into KMM / QT/C++ but I’m not sure how to setup dev env on Windows (and linux) without affecting existing KMM installation (instructions are confusing).
