Since there's been mention about aligning Kirigami and re: the (IMHO) controversial approach of using foreground (text) colours for background purposes: Have you guys considered using the 4 colours in question only for the message text and outer frame, keeping the background intact (or possibly just a bit lighter or darker depending on its initial brightness and/or the theme/user's contrast setting)? The result should be more subtle and more reliably as readable as allowed by the theme. I've done a very quick assessment, using the 0.2 alpha to darken dark window backgrounds and brighten light window backgrounds (using QColor::darker and QColor::lighter) which gives F6005564: image.png <https://phabricator.kde.org/F6005564> That's Breeze vs. Breeze Dark vs. my custom theme. two observations: - lighter background colours are brightened less progressively to avoid hitting pure white too quickly - a hair-thin black outline for the text could increase readability for some combinations but appears to be impossible with stylesheets. (This is true in general, not just for this experiment.)
