Traditional TTY's have 8 colors (corresponding, in fact, to each of the RGB components being off or on), in addition to several styling bits (e.g. "bold", underline, blink). Depending on the documentation you read, the "bold" bit may be labeled "bright" or "intense". The reason is that traditional text terminals (think DOS, Linux TTY's before modeset took over, and many BIOS's) would respond to the 'bold' bit not by changing the font, but by using a brighter color, which 'looks' bold when you don't actually have different fonts. Now... if you look in Konsole's profile appearance, you will see that it describes eight colors, corresponding to those the tty sets... plus eight /more/ colors, labeled "intense", which are used instead of the 'regular' color when the 'bold'/'bright'/'intense' bit is set. So, making the color "intensive" means to use the configured 'alternate' color, e.g. instead of "Color 1", use "Color 1 (intense)". That is, Konsole isn't manipulating the configured color, it is using a /different/ configured color. Usually you will define your colors in Konsole to match, at least roughly, the traditional text terminal values (such that the effect will be as if you were to make the color brighter), but there is nothing - aesthetic considerations notwithstanding :-) - stopping you from deciding that color 0 should be magenta and intense color 0 should be dark green. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ konsole-devel mailing list konsole-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/konsole-devel
