Can't Enable Theme #11

Closed jonleopard closed 6 years ago

Perhaps I'm missing something in the instructions, but I cannot figure out how to apply this theme in the macOS edition of Telegram.

I'm looking inside Preferences > Theme, and don't see anywhere that indicates adding a custom theme.

Thanks!

Same here. After clicking "Chat Background" I can click "Custom Background", but that only will allow me to select an image file, not the template file.

There are two different versions of Telegram available for macOS.

The native macOS version.
Has native design.
Supports secret chats.
Does not support custom themes.

Telegram Desktop

The macOS version of the multi-platform version of Telegram.
Supports custom themes.

You can only use custom themes with the version titled Telegram Desktop (found in the app store).

Thank you @nmsmith22389 for clearing that up! I was able to install the other version and activate the theme :)
