Describe the bug
Some icons don't follow color scheme. Dark on dark and are not visible. Changing in ~/.local/share/icons/Tela-blue/index.theme, FollowsColorScheme=true to FollowsColorScheme=false. solved the problem of having only a few icons in system try being colored. By changing them to more uniform color. Sadly majority where in very dark variant.

Changing value to FollowsColorScheme=white Solved majority of inconsistency and low visibility of icons on KDE panels. Especially with dark background. But there are still some icons that are dark as a whole. Or use dark accents.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. edit dot file ~/.local/share/icons/Tela-blue/index.theme as explained above.
  2. Set your panels background to dark color
  3. Observe low visibility/contrast on some icons

Expected behavior
Better description for users on how to use dot file to decide by themself which colors icons should use. And/or use colors with better contrast in two tone variants.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: OpenSUSE TW, KDE
  • App: KDE panels. Most importantly system tray icons
  • Version: KDE 2.6.4

Additional context
edit: I wanted to make screen shot of every state to make this report more clear. Despite changes in config file. Icons stays the same. Instead of being blue (at first install), dark gray (after first change) and now white. Which is intended effect for me. Screenshot of how it looks now.
