Hi to everyone. I am requesting help, please. See picture below. This is on Debian 13.1 KDE. The taskbar and main menu are set to “opaque.” My question is, how do I make the jump menus opaque, too? Why do they stay semi-transparent even after I change the settings through the panel configuration tool? I have done a little research, and it seems like this is a … bug? I don’t know. A design flaw? But if anyone can advise me how to make the jump menus opaque, too, that’d be great. Thanks.
UPDATE:
So apparently this kind of thing is theme-dependent (from what I can see elsewhere online). But at the same time, I’m getting conflicting information both online and via AI (e.g., like with Duck.ai, Google Gemini) that this can be rectified through blur and translucency settings in KDE. I have tried following these sort of suggestions, and they don’t really appear to help. Can one of the KDE developers here shed some definitive light on this once and for all? Please, and thank you very much.
Follow-up:
OK. So this is definitely dependent on themes, etc. So now my question (to the KDE developers who are members of this forum) is, why is it this way with the default theme? If users pick “translucent,” everything’s translucent. Including the jump menus, etc. There’s consistency. But if users pick “opaque,” everything but the jump menus are opaque. It’s inconsistent. I’m a bit surprised more people haven’t spoken out about this. I do see that there have been other folks who have said stuff online (from my research), but it’s a glaring issue that I feel needs to be rectified and straightened out for consistency’s sake. I guess in the meantime, I’ll look for a theme that fits the bill for what I’d like to see. But just the same, I’d sure appreciate it if someone “in the know” would comment. Thanks.
