GTK2 windows are left unthemed #84

Closed hmlendea closed 2 years ago

hmlendea commented 2 years ago

Hello,

Is there any plan to support GTK2 also? There are apps such as GIMP or Citrix and others, that are left unthemed and look like they run on Windows 98.

If not, is there a workaround to have the default Adwaita theme used for GTK2 while also using adw-gtk3 for GTK3?

There are a few tools to configure the GTK2 theme only: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GTK#Configuration_tools I used "gtk-chtheme" which is available in the Arch repositories, it works well. Maybe it's available in other distros repositories too.

Not worth the effort just for just a few legacy applications. And gimp have its own themes.

what about qt5-styleplugins that need gtk2? qgnomeplatform theming isn't good as QGtkStyle do. what i referring to, is this : https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Uniform_look_for_Qt_and_GTK_applications#QGtkStyle

hi @lassekongo83 i cobbled together a repo adw-gtk2-colorizer to more or less follow the styling (as good as possible that is) of adw-gtk3 in gtk2, along a python script that can be used to recolor said gtk2 theme from a gradience preset.

don't worry i won't require involvement from you other than consider adding it to the adw-gtk3 readme and mention it as an addon for those that do need support for legacy apps.
