[SOLVED] Arch : how do i set the theme ?

[Mark255]

Hi,

I'm having trouble setting the theme on Arch :
deluge: 1.3.15
libtorrent: 1.1.12.0

In my ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
i have set :

Code: Select all

gtk-theme-name=HighContrastInverse
gtk-icon-theme-name=HighContrastInverse
gtk-font-name=Serif 10
gtk-cursor-theme-name=HighContrastInverse
gtk-cursor-theme-size=0
gtk-toolbar-style=GTK_TOOLBAR_ICONS
gtk-toolbar-icon-size=GTK_ICON_SIZE_SMALL_TOOLBAR
gtk-button-images=1
gtk-menu-images=1
gtk-enable-event-sounds=1
gtk-enable-input-feedback-sounds=1
gtk-xft-antialias=1
gtk-xft-hinting=1
gtk-xft-hintstyle=hintfull
gtk-xft-rgba=rgb

This makes all programs use HighContrastInverse, except deluge.

Even if i start deluge with command:
GTK_THEME=HighContrastInverse deluge

It still doesn't change theme.
Tried Adwaita as well, nothing.

Any ideas ?

SOLUTION :

Deluge appears to actually GTK2 themes, not GTK3 ones.
File /usr/share/gtk-2.0/gtkrc sets the theme :

Code: Select all

gtk-icon-theme-name = "AdwaitaDark"
gtk-theme-name = "AdwaitaDark"
gtk-font-name = "Cantarell 11"

And the themes available for used are listed as directories in /usr/share/themes/
By default in arch, there is no HighContrastInverse GTK2, only GTK3.

Yeah Deluge 1.3 is a GTK2 application, thanks for posting solution.
