qt gtk themes problem (Mate Desktop)

30 April 2021, 00:41:43

Hello i have issues with all the themes in my Mate Openrc desktop. The installation is fresh (less than 5 hours)
I installed qt5ct and edited

Code: [Select]

 sudo nano /etc/environment

as followed

I always have problems with my themes and various application.
Also there is darkmode enabled so for example if use plank there is dark theme while i want light theme (which is the default theme).

Is there any solution ? I search the web and read the wiki.
Thanks in advance!

That´s my, if I remember it right, original, non touched /etc/enviroment

Code: [Select]

QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2
QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=gtk
QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="-blink-settings=darkModeEnabled=true -enable-features=OverlayScrollbar,OverlayScrollbarFlashAfterAnyScrollUpdate,OverlayScrollbarFlashWhenMouseEnter"

Yes that was mine as well but it didn't work...
This was the default but did not work...

I've only this in ~.bash_profile

Code: [Select]

export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct
export QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0

Reverting to light themes in fresh installations is the easiest of all. Switch to a console, stop lightdm, comment out everything in /etc/environment and delete ~/.config. Restart lightdm and profit.
