that weird border around the kickoff menu is now fixed in unstable, you may have to remove .cache folder in home and restart plasmashell (plasmashell --replace & ) to load it correctly.

And if you do not like the opaque turning of the pannel, check @Harvey linked video how to deactivate it

Yesterday I installed Solus Plasma, everything was fine until I run my first full system upgrade and I noticed that the solus-dark plasma style (the theme that affects the panel and widgets) is missing the mouse hover effect (blue background highlight), as shown in this video:

Note that the light theme is working fine. That highlight effect is also applied when navigating with the keyboard arrows, its very difficult to navigate without a visual feedback. The bug also affects hidden icons in the system tray and the alternative application menus.

    I don't know if I can ask it here, but here it comes... since the theme creator comes here, I want to know how can I make the "notification widget" use smaller icons, using breeze theme makes them a bit smaller, but Solus theme don't...
    I love Solus Dark theme btw. Great work!

      YuriTheHenrique don't know exactly what you mean but gonna have a look. Solus-KDE theme is using breeze as the engine as well as the window decorations, so a bit surprise if you say they are bigger icons

      €: Can you provide a screenshot?

          Girtablulu Yes, sorry for the delay, not much free time.

          May it be a bug? I remember kde always had bigger icons there too, but this time it is perfectly smaller...

              Girtablulu I searched a little bit more, and came to this:

              and messing with the panel a bit, I found that it is there, and that's how breeze makes them smaller... while other themes don't, maybe next versions of plasma will introduce for other widget themes. Sorry for taking your time 😛.
