Breeze

We made several improvements to the Breeze theme to make Plasma even more pleasant to use:

• Folders now respect your accent color or the color scheme's “Selection” color: LINK
• The focus effect for buttons, text fields, checkboxes, radio buttons, comboboxes, and spinboxes has been enlarged into a “focus ring” that should be much easier to visually distinguish at a glance: LINK
• The Breeze color scheme has been renamed to “Breeze Classic”, to better distinguish it from the Breeze Light and Breeze Dark color schemes: LINK
• The “Breeze High Contrast” color scheme has been deleted, as it actually offered lower contrast than the very similar-looking Breeze Dark. Existing users will be migrated to Breeze Dark: LINK

General Behavior
