Some. But usual I don't have any trouble with Global Themes. As I understands it the ball is at Pling not KDE.

Hi @Storm , much appreciate your response. I am glad to get a confirmed second opinion of my thoughts. Do you know of any creators who have moved elsewhere?
I have noticed a big shift from earlier versions of theming in KDE/Plasma. In the old days, you could install from a local file - this no longer exists. I have seen some entries in 'Get New' that stipulate manual installation via ~.local etc.
I have no idea. IF I want to install it manually I'll go the tedious way and pick up bits of the Global theme and put them in the right directories.
With PLings move to not pay their artists, I guess it soon be a ghost town with rarely new content. I for one won't put anything up there anymore.

lxqt wayland session (Labwc)
Finally finished my custom Waybar config! It took me two days of back-and-forth prompts with Gemini to get every detail just right. Worth the effort!

The Icons in the Buttons in the last Row are not centered. Is this Intention?
I didn't design this menu myself. I'm using the themes from adi1090x/rofi and integrated them into my Waybar configuration so it works automatically. However, I will try to tweak the configuration and center the icons properly in the next update.

Application Style: Oxygen / BlueSky-Dark
Plasma Style: Volatile

Splash Screen: Animation-Live-Cat-screensaver
Have left the labels off the Tiled Icons in the tiled menu because they become too bold, unlike the GMail label which is what I was hoping for.
Thought I would try Vivaldi. Plasma comes with an extension for your Browser - added it to Vivaldi then got a redirect (potential) to install Chrome - no thanks. So does Vivaldi use Chrome or is it the Plasma extension that created this issue? Anyhoo, glad to be back on a stable version of Plasma.
