Description Mészáros Csaba 2023-09-09 16:16:05 CEST

the KDE Plasma color scheme is reset to the default Breeze color scheme exactly every second boot-up after i have manually applied a custom color scheme.

Other appearance settings of the KDE Plasma DE are not affected, it's only the color scheme.
KDE Plasma: 5.27.5
KDE Framework: 5.105.0
QT version: 5.15.7
Graphics platform: X11

I can not reproduce this behaviour.
- Is this a fresh MGA9 installation or an upgrede from MGA8?
- did you already create a fresh test user profile to rule out a broken profile?

I changed the colors on a fresh MGA9 via systemsettings->appearance->colours->user defined

This is a fresh install. I can post a video.

Find a suitable color setting and change various things to it, then save it under a different name. Set it to use.

For me, it forgets it every second start and restores the default values. I read something about global topics, but now I can't find this site anywhere.

Now it gets clear what you are doing....
You take a existing color scheme, edit it, save it and apply it.

Your error is that you left the checkbox "Use accent color: From current color scheme" ticked. This can't work and your colors get reverted to Breeze at restart. This is correct Plasma behaviour. If you want to use your own color scheme you need to tick the box "Custom" and your setting will stick over a restart. see needed settings in screenshot.

Ahhh. I understand. Thanks. These little things...

Thank you Frank for your deep insight.
The previous comment implies satisfaction. Closing the bug; but, Csaba, you can re-open it if this conclusion is wrong.
