Hello!
I am using KDE Neon 5.19, Ubuntu 20.04 base
The settings panel is using a light background, and light text, independant of whatever KDE Color scheme I choose. It does not appear to be taking the colors from any KDE scheme or theme. The widgets do update when changing the Application Style in KDE.

I have tried another QT Application (specifically Q4Wine) not sure if it is using the same controls as CRT, but it displays following the KDE Theme and Colors as it should.

Any other information you need, or tests I can perform to help, please feel free to ask! Happy to help track it down.

Same issue on MacOSX, it's not as bad as OP's but still not good.

It's almost like it picked up "dark theme" from the OS but only changed the text color

Greetings,
I am also on KDE and I literally cannot read anything in the settings menu. Have anyone figured this out?

I am using the Oxygen application theme and for GTK I have Adwaita-dark. The color scheme is set to IOTA-Dark-color.

Qt5ct did not help me after setting it up so I have no idea what to try next. Any help is appreciated.

Cheers

I changed my color theme from a dark to a light theme temporarily as suggested in https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term/issues/689, which worked. It is a pretty annoying workaround but I guess it works.

Actually I think I've found a better way than changing your color scheme to light: QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE=Plasma cool-retro-term

There are still some problems with background and tabs, but at least it's readable enough to change settings.

BTW, there are other themes that are readable enough.

@Zachiah It's not cool-retro-term problem in your case, it's your DE problem. Probably something with your QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE environment variable is wrong or the style is missing.

@RadRussianRus thanks so much! I somehow assumed this was some sort of KDE repository. I guess I was tired. That fixed it
