Tragedy 2.01 fixes the issues in KDE 4.4.1. I'm one happy camper!! Thank you so much for getting this figured out. I'm now happily using Tragedy as my Desktop Theme along with the Tragedy Windows Decorations. Lancelot displays as it should. It all just works.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, ....

This is still an issue. The typed text is nearly invisible. I've just installed your Ghost Desktop Theme, and Lancelot has the same issue with this theme - the typed text in the search bar is nearly invisible.

If you can isolate this and find out what system setting is conflicting with Lancelot's color control settings, I would be very grateful.

I really love this theme, however, using it under KDE 4.4.0, Lancelot (plasma-widget-lancelot) doesn't display the menu entries text until you hover your mouse over the item. This did not happen pre-KDE 4.4.0 (KDE 4.3.5) and doesn't happen with the Oxygen Theme.

Is this something that you can fix? It would be an absolute shame if I have to dump Tragedy due to this.

I'm surprised this theme isn't rated higher - come on people, vote positive and download/install it.

This is an absolutely excellent theme. I've stopped looking for any others. Kudos to the designer.

I'm a fan of dark themes and wallpapers. This theme is absolutely great! It is a thing of beauty. Well done.

I've just released a new version of the Tragedy window decoration! It should mesh a bit better with the updated plasma theme.

Excellent theme! And very original and striking, unlike most of the themes here. Keep up the good work!

Hi,

first, Tragedy became my favorite Theme, so thanks and keep up the good work :)

Unfortunately, the hide and show buttons in the system tray are not shown, if the tray is placed on a vertical panel (see: http://img146.imageshack.us/i/traywoicons.png/). Fortunately clicking on the blank space works, but it'd be nice if this can be fixed.

Cheers,
Arthur

My apologies, the first command should read:

rm -rf ~/.kde/share/apps/desktoptheme/tragedy

Unfortunately, I cannot seem to reproduce this behavior and the artwork looks fine. I think perhaps it could be related to older files left behind in the theme folder. Please give this a try first to be sure any older files are not lingering behind.

Switch to another theme besides Tragedy

Type into a terminal:
rm ~/.kde/share/apps/desktoptheme/tragedy

Then simply reinstall the theme and switch back.

If the problem persists:

Switch your theme to anything besides Tragedy

Issue these commands in a terminal to clear the plasma cache:

rm ~/.kde/cache-*/plasma*
rm ~/.kde/cache-*/kpc/plasma*

Restart Plasma and switch back to Tragedy

Please let me know if this does not solve the problem!

That is good to hear! I've updated the main description as I'm sure you aren't the only person who has had this problem. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Thanks for the compliment! I will look into this problem as soon as possible, likely tomorrow afternoon. =)

I'm here to rebuke you for the latest change. You had this at near perfection. Then you changed the color of the widget desktop and task manager icon (the ones you click to add widgets or control them). On top of that you removed the nice white masked face on the shut down.

Put it back the way it was. There was no need to make that change. It looked outstanding. Now it looks cheap.

Luckily I caught it on some of my other computers and it hasn't affected this desktop, but sheesh man. Can you fix this thing or is it a wild animal out of your control by now?

I think I'm being totally stupid here but are there any instructions for working with this plugin? I've installed it fine but there's a few things I'd rather read up on before playing with!
