Modify Konsole profile appearances - don't create whole profiles.

[RokeJulianLockhart]

1. Describe the suggestion

   Because not solely appearance configuration is stored in a Konsole profile, instead also functional configuration, I do not use Yin-Yang's Konsole profile style chooser because it creates new profiles rather than modifies the appearance of the default profile. Consequently, I want it to instead modify the apperance of the default profile (or better yet, whichever profile the user chooses, be that the default or not).

4. Additional notes

   Imagine if changing the global desktop theme reverted all functional changes too.

We need to create new profiles in order to change the theme while Konsole (or dependent apps like Yakuake) are running. We try to get the default profile and make copies of that to create the light and dark theme.
You should be able to delete the light and dark profile files, make changes to your default profile and then restart Yin Yang.

@l0drex, thanks for the information. I think that the fact that I was unaware of that demonstrates that it's at least somewhat unintuitive. At least that tides me over for now.

hello, when toggling dark / light mode in yin-yang change all the currently opened tab for the appropriate theme, but not the default profile; which mean every new tab (yakuake or konsole) will be with the wrong profile.
should i open another issue or this one will suffice ?

thanks!

This is another issue, but likely one we can't really solve. Maybe in the future though, so please open a new ticket!
