Hi,
I've been looking for getting a dark appearance to lxqt, and so far
the closest is through qt5ct color schemes specified through *.conf
little files under qt5ct, somehow documented here:
Is there a way to get such color scheme files to choose from? Also,
is there some specification of what each of the 20 colors specified
per active/disabled/inactive ones is supposed to mean? The inactive
and active ones are pretty similar, except for the 13th color, not
sure if some more should change. The disabled one is of course more
different, :) I'm not looking for the inactive colors to be similar
to the disabled ones, just a bit more of contrast than what I see,
which is no difference on tabs or even buttons...
Thanks,
I can't speak for LXQT specifically. (I'm a XFCE / formerly KDE user.)
But I've been maintaining a dark theme for my own personal use for
several years now (screenshot at
http://www.darose.net/DaroseDesktop2011-09.png) and have started sharing
it a bit recently given that there's been increased interest in dark
color schemes lately.
The theme is primarily a GTK theme, so not sure how well it will work
with LXQT, but I also have a copy of the older KDE/QT version which
perhaps might be more likely to work with LXQT. The GTK theme is an AUR
package (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/adwaita-dark-darose/), while
the KDE/QT theme is just a color scheme file
(http://darose.net/DarkBlueGreyDave9.colors) as I haven't spent time
making a package out of that one since I don't use KDE anymore.
Hope one of these is useful to you. Feel free to email back feedback /
suggestions for improvement.
