Help please?

I want to use showfoto but am having problems: when I hover over icons, tools, options etc., the text is pale grey on yellow and I can't read it at all. Does anyone know how to change the text colour setting, please? I'm also having problems reducing the size of photo images: they are all approx 3.5MB which makes it impossible to email or post on Facebook. Maybe if I could read the showfoto text,
I might find the answer to this one? Thanks very much Lucia _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |

I hate to disagree Gilles, but for non-KDE users it's simpler to: go to Settings > Configure digiKam ... > Miscellaneous and change the Widget style to "Cleanlooks". This is such a problem for non-KDE, the default should be changed IMHO.

Which widget style is set by default on your computer ?

As far as I know this is a broader problem than Digikam. It's a
"feature" of using KDE apps in a non-KDE environment. There was a
thread about this recently and IIRC there is no fix. I also have
Linux Mint and have other applications that exhibit the same
problem. I'm hoping I am wrong, BTW!

Well, I use Linux Mint as my OS as well and I have Widget style set to "GTK+". This setting is OK, I can read anything mentioned above. BR, Milos 2014-09-12 14:45 GMT+02:00 Francis Corvin <[hidden email]>:

There are 2 settings which have effects on application colors :
- Widget style. - Color scheme. For both, you can add new one using distro installer, but the most important is Color Scheme. From KDE, there are come from kdeartworks package. Best widget style is Oxygen (KDE default). A lots of other styles are bugous and not maintained...

If you have Kipi-plugins installed, there's a plugin that lets you upload a selection of images to Facebook (and there are plugins in many other directions as well, email among them). The plugin can be found under Export, if it is turned on. Once the kipi- plugins are installed, you can turn them on and of in the configuration (somewhere at the bottom of the list of configuration categories). I don't recall what the default is, on my computer it's turned off, on my wifes it's turned on. Opening a Facebook account is a bit of a hassle, as Facebook refreshes the authentication page with half a second. Easiest is to get the requested address from your browsers cache after that.
