After spending a fair deal of time on this "interesting" matter.....I
found it obscure/difficult/maddening/impossible.
The desktop theme definitions are kept
in /usr/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme/ . To modify things you need
to use an svg editor such as inkscape. The question then becomes
which fileS to modify to get the desired result.
I say fileS since it seems that one has to know which files to
modify...and how. It seems, to make matters worse, that there is an
interaction between files located in "default" and whatever theme you
are using. If some attribute isn't defined in the files of your
theme then they are gotten from files in the default. Also, it
seems, one has to know in which order files are read/evaluated.
To sum things up..... It ain't easy.... :-(
I also did some googling on the matter and my "ain't easy" conclusion
is upheld by many others. (People in another thread may want to
google this topic....they may learn something about opinions of KDE
developers... :-) :-) And cries for the good-old-days of KDE 3.4)
Hope I don't regret saying all that.....
With all that in mind.... The patch of least resistance seems to be
either
A. Find a theme, even though it has a translucent taskbar, which is
more readable. B. Find a theme that give you an opaque taskbar...
LIke Gaia_Recycled....which I don't like. But who cares about my
opinion. :-)
I have taken desktop decoration off, using Oxygen and no transparency.
Got grey panel, with black fonts. Reasonable enough, not the best, but..
