From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

ThemeChanger 0.12.0 - now it can set the theme of libadwaita apps (github.com)

Hello. I released a new version of my theme changing app for Linux.

It adds the feature to (force) set the theme of gnome libadwaita apps without libadwaita patches, among other minor tweaks. Besides that, it can change GTK2/3/4, Kvantum, icon and cursor themes, GTK CSS and some appearance settings across GUI frameworks.

Hope this is useful.

Looks nice and useful thanks

I get this error using it for the first time.

[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/xxx/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk.css'

Considering that file doesn't exist the app might create it if necessary?

Cheers

Hmm, will look into it

Ok, so I can't reproduce the error. If I remove the .config/gtk-4.0 folder, it just gets recreated by my app and no error occurs on my arch machine with gnome.

Thanks for checking.

I just checked as well and on my system (arch, xfce) the file exists but it's a symlink, created by a theme I tried but doesn't exist on my system anymore ("qogir-gtk-theme-git"). After removing the symlinks it works.

I clicked apply in the app and a gtk.css and settings.ini files was created. The gtk.css file it's empty. Is that the intended behavior?

If you selected the adwaita theme, yes, there will be no css written
