Fedora 35 KDE spin, wayland session

if I long-tap the emoji button and select Settings... in the popup plasma system settings are opened how can I access maliit keyboard settings? I'd like to change the theme to a dark one and perhaps the language

I have same question regarding the theme.

Unfortunately, Plasma desktop settings doesn't have any UI for configuring maliit itself, though Plasma mobile settings app does. I'm not sure if installing the kcm from the mobile settings repo will work inside the desktop plasma settings, or maybe you can just install and run the mobile settings to get to it.

Aside from that, one can use gsettings in a terminal, or dconf-editor (or whatever the KDE equivalent might be), to edit settings directly.

Thanks for the reply! What is the correct syntax to edit it with gconfig? I can't find the configuration files neither in ~/.config nor /usr/share/maliit

Settings are stored via GSettings in dconf. You can find the schema under the data/schemas/ directory in this repo, or normally under /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ when installed. Or gsettings list-keys org.maliit.keyboard.maliit to see what settings can be set.
