9 months ago Hi, to fully apply the theme to apps that requires sudo permissions it's madatory to extract the theme under /usr/share/themes directory

After following your advice by copying your theme folder "Nordic" with sudo-rights into
/usr/share/themes , synaptic shows fine now with your theme after a reboot of my Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon system.
Alas, the latest MKVToolNix GUI v81.0 ('Milliontown') won't work this way, it still stays bright and white in its GUI. Maybe its author intends it to be that way?
But every other GUI-tool I tested since the above change, i.e. Nemo, MediaInfo-GUI, Gnome Subtitles, Audacious, Rythmbox, HexChat, as some examples, are now working as you intended it to be, I think.
The default Synaptic package manager and MKVToolNix GUI v78.0 (bunkus PPA install) in LM 21.2 Cinnamon 64bit opens with a bright theme - even the default one is dark - not a dark themed one. The theme file I imported was "Nordic.tar.xz" (v2.2.0 dated Jun 24, 2022). I extracted the file to the folder ~/.themes/ which I created first. After that I simply activated the Nordic theme in the cinnamon theme settings menu and restarted the system afterwards.
