--- Comment #3 from Urs Fleisch <uflei...@users.sourceforge.net> ---
The portable binary archive for Kid3 (kid3-3.9.6-Linux.tgz in your case) comes
with its own Qt. So if your system Qt is styled globally, e.g. by using qt6ct
or the LXQt Theme/Widget Style Qt Palette settings of LxQt, then this will not
affect the style of the Qt libraries contained in the Kid3 package. Since ALT
Linux does only provide an old version (3.9.4), you will have to build Kid3
yourself using the system Qt libraries if you want it to use exactly the style
used by the other Qt applications.

But if it is enough to just have a dark theme for Kid3, there is an easier
option. As can be seen with `man qt6options`, there is an option
`-stylesheet=path/to/stylesheet` for Qt applications. You could try to create
your own style sheet or locate the one used by LxQt. An easier solution would
be to use some ready-to-use style sheet, e.g.
https://github.com/ColinDuquesnoy/QDarkStyleSheet. If you download and extract
the source ZIP from that project, you can start Kid3 with a dark theme using

    kid3-3.9.6-Linux/kid3-qt -stylesheet
QDarkStyleSheet-master/qdarkstyle/dark/darkstyle.qss

What I do not like with this style on my system (Arch Linux) is that the check
boxes are not visible, probably because this project is intended to be compiled
into the application as a Qt resource and not just loaded from a directory.
Maybe you can tweak this, or it might in the end still be easier to build Kid3
yourself from the sources.
