FlatPak PrusaSlicer doesn't get styled #465

Open dzervas opened 4 months ago

dzervas commented 4 months ago

I'm not sure if this is a problem with flatpak or PrusaSlicer specifically but it doesn't get styled:

(My theme is snazzy, a dark one)

I'm using sway with GTK enabled (Qt theming is broken)

Is this a GTK application? If not, we will need to write a specific module to theme it. If it is, it may be overriding the system theme with its own theme. Also, as far as I know, Flatpak isolates apps from the rest of the system, which may prevent it from accessing config provided by Stylix.

PrusaSlicer uses GTK but my question was more towards flatpak in general - is there the ability to "export" the gtk and qt themes to flatpak?

I'm not familiar with the details of Flatpak, but if you can somehow make ~/.config/gtk-3.0 and ~/.config/gtk-4.0 visible to the app then it should pick up the theme.

I don't think it's possible for these files to be read by most flatpak apps. Could there possibly be a way to create a new theme instead of creating an "override" (if that's the correct term) through these files?

Perhaps patching the theme with an overlay for the adw-gtk3 package that replaces the relevant strings in the theme's gtk.css? I think it might be ugly codewise, depending on how it is implemented, but I believe it will be a better solution.

Btw, through this solution, the "issue" about not being able to switch "polarity" without rebuilding could be "fixed".
