Style #24

Closed bordermick closed 8 years ago

I successfully installed ahoviewer in Arch Linux using the AUR but when I actually open it, the style has an ugly white to it. Is there a way so I can get it to look like your screenshot? This is what it looks like: http://i.imgur.com/QV74vOI.png

Ahoviewer uses GTK, so if you want to change its style there's no other option than installing other theme for GTK. However, I can't say what theme @ahodesuka is using.

I am currently using Numix as my GTK theme with Gnome as my DE

Your ahoviewer looks like it should with Numix installed. numix___gtk3_theme_by_satya164-d5ygul6

Oh ok, that makes sense. In the Gnome tweak tool I enabled 'Global Dark Theme' so I assume that ahoviewer just isn't working with it. Is there any way that I can get that white to be dark?

I found @ahodesuka config in his dotfiles. ahodesuka/dotfiles/.gtkrc-2.0 It seems that he uses his own style.

In the Gnome tweak tool I enabled 'Global Dark Theme' so I assume that ahoviewer just isn't working with it. Is there any way that I can get that white to be dark?

Can't tell as I don't use Gnome but I'm pretty sure that changing theme to the dark one will work.

Oh, wait. Here it is. You just have to download his theme and put that in .themes directory like here: https://github.com/ahodesuka/dotfiles/tree/master/.themes/ahoka

When I use the Ahoka theme it works fine, but I would like to keep using Numix if possible though. I tried disabling the 'Global Dark Theme' setting also, and it still looked the same as when I had it enabled, so im pretty sure its not taking effect on ahoviewer.

This does not affect GTK2 applications.

After taking a look at the Numix theme - they do not include a dark variant for GTK2. So you will need to find a dark variation of Numix's GTK2 theme, here is one I found after a quick search: https://github.com/Steef435/Numix-dark

This is how it looks for me: 2016-01-09-193242_997x905_scrot
