I am currently using KDE 3.5 and SuSE 11.0. I have a tiled background
picture that has a lot of white in it and the standard text under the
icons are white. Now you know what I am going to ask, how can I change
the icon text to something that I can see?? PLEASE

Can’t say it’s flawless… but I did get my text color to change… along
wit the text color on the taskbar…
CONFIGURE DESKTOP > ADVANCED TAB > *DESKTOP THEME DETAILS
Select the theme you’re using in the upperleft combobox, then under
color scheme (in the middle) select something different then the one
you’re using.
*Rightclick on the desktop > Appearance Settings > Select
Customize and apply.
If you’ve already set it to customized set it to something else first,
apply, set it back to customized, apply.
Think picking a different wallpaper will give more satisfying results

**
In KDE 3.5 there is a control center extension module called
desktoptext-config (see ‘Desktop Text Config KDE-Apps.org’
(http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=53118) ) that…
> … gathers in one place all available settings for the desktop icons
> texts: Font, colors and shadow.
> (It extends and is meant to replace “TextShadowEdit”.)
Couldn’t live without it

Sorry guys I should have explained myself better, what I want to do is
to change the text colour and have a background under the icon text
which is on a background picture!
I am using Suse 11.1 64 bit and KDE 4.2

Something like windows 95? A black bar behind the icon text…
Still the same applies. In control center desktop texts module just
uncheck text shadows and choose text and background colors.
