separate profile for terminal in dolphin / kate and others  
Written by natugnaudE the 8 Nov 09 at 21:00. New
i like having transparency on my windows, so i added transparency to the colors on the profile i use for Konsole.
The problem is that dolphin and kate (and all apps capable of opening a terminal inside of their windows) don't seem to be able to handle transparency, so when I open the terminal it looks awful.
I've tried to enable a different profile in dolphin but haven't been able to do so without changing the profile I use for Konsole. (i'm not sure if this is not possible or i'm just dumb!)

So here goes my suggestion: would it be possible to have a different profile enabled for different applications? This way i could use transparency on konsole and use the standard black/white in kate/dolphin...

Solution #1: keep a separate setting for each program that is capable of opening a terminal
Written by natugnaudE the 8 Nov 09 at 21:00.
it would seem that the profile setting is set globally for all kde.
As i see it it could be handled separately by each application which is capable of opening a terminal window; it's just a configuration setting that would needed to be stored and retrieved when opening the app. Am i wrong?
