Hello,

I'm running 16.04.1 with $QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct under i3. Using qt5ct I've set theme to Breeze and no other changes.

Please see the attached uploaded picture at http://xgm.de/upload/dolphin.png

The bar which indicates disk usage (bottom left) is barely visible. Is this a problem of my environment (I had number of problems with KDE apps that don't like a non-KDE environment) or a general problem of the theme?

Thanks,
Florian

maybe color selection?

I haven't touched the colour selection, but it looks better when used inside the KDE desktop environment.

KDE applications are really problem children when used outside the KDE desktop environment.

try changing the color scheme, may help

also the i3 forum may be a good place to find others in a similar situation
