KDE5 Application menus are not correct
I have always wrestled with little things like this when I toy with KDE. As you can see in this image, my menus are not correct. What is causing this? I'm sorry, but I always get lost trying to sort out what covers button styles, application menu styles, and desktop theme. I can't seem to get these menus to change, but they don't look like what I'm seeing in other's images.
I'm just testing out Plasma 5. What am I doing wrong?

Re: KDE5 Application menus are not correct
Do you have breeze package installed?

Re: KDE5 Application menus are not correct
I did not. I didn't realize it existed. I already had a workspace theme for breeze. Nevertheless, I have installed it. It looks the same. Is there a setting I'm missing?

Re: KDE5 Application menus are not correct
How did you install Plasma5 without installing breeze? It is a dependency. Anyway, if you have Plasma 5.0.2 there is no native breeze style yet, you have to use qtcurve.

Re: KDE5 Application menus are not correct
Well it isn't listed as a dependency. At any rate, what I meant was that I hadn't explicitly installed it. If it was part of a group it would have been installed. I did have the breeze workspace theme. Where should one set qtcurve to affect the menus?

Re: KDE5 Application menus are not correct
It should be set automatically if you choose it in the Style section of systemsettings. Otherwise choose it using qtconfig-qt4. Make sure you have all qtcurve variants installed (qt4,kde4,qt5)

Re: KDE5 Application menus are not correct
Well I only have qt4 and utils. When I try and install all I get a conflict with kdebase-workspace and khotkeys. Thank you for your help.
