Thanks a bunch! I have been using Deluge 2.1.0.Dev90 with LibTorrent 2.0.5.0 for quite a few months now. I will see how this works compared to the dev-build.

Nvm seems a quick restart was enough, feel dumb for not doing it in the first place.

Anyway, my point is that the instructions for doadin's builds in this thread for changing theme to e.g. dark, will also work for official, so please find them, or alternatively I made a theme-switcher a few posts above(including dark-mode) if wanted instead.

Thank you. I initially missed the deluge_theme_switcher.exe post.

The Windows builds posted by Cas can be considered as official?
I ask this because the Deluge home page keeps saying that Windows builds for Deluge version 2 are not available.

As official as it gets, and just an oversight, but understand your concern Thanks for reporting, I'm sure he'll get to it when seen and time permits.

With the latest official 2.1 windows build and using deluge_theme_switcher.exe to switch to the dark theme I still have a light coloured Title Bar in the main program and in Preferences and other sub menus.
I was previously using other unofficial builds 2.0x and always had a nice dark themed title bar.
Can anyone explain if this is achievable again with the current 2.1 build?
Thanks

The official(and doadin's) deluge installer adds env-var "GTK_CSD=0" for running session unless overridden yourself, meaning system titlebar from windows itself used and not from theme, but even on windows dark mode then windows by default sets white titlebar for desktop applications.

A few possibilities to circumvent...

One is to override 'GTK_CSD=0' with a user env-var, so theme's titlebar used, e.g. which in adwaita's dark mode(the one used in theme switcher and manual instructions) is dark, though not having perfect windows min/max/close buttons but not that bad imho and other theme could be downloaded/used if wanted instead. However, besides more native looks then also the predefined 'GTK_CSD=0' fixes a bug with deluge on windows - honestly cannot remember but something with minimizing and restoring needing an extra click if maximized before, or something I believe, but if can live with that, then a fix. I'm gonna add this as option to the theme switcher at a later point I think, but meanwhile then can open cmd-prompt with 'win+r > cmd' and run 'setx GTK_CSD 1'. If changing mind then can revert back to default again through opening said cmd-prompt and running 'reg delete hkcu\environment /f /v GTK_CSD' and reboot for changes to take effect. Note, that setting 'GTK_CSD' yourself then gets picked up and used for all GTK apps installed/run.

Another method, which I though haven't checked/verified and only googled(my win10 VM is unactivated, so haven't these options available neither), is using a dark accent color and choosing to show the accent color on title bars in windows settings under 'Settings > Personalization > Colors' > Under 'Show accent color on the following surfaces', put a check on Title bars and window borders.

@mhertz
Thanks for the detailed reply concerning the title bar. Much appreciated. Many thanks.

Nice job with the theme switcher @mhertz and the GTK switch. Dark theme + dark toolbar all working well

Thank you fellas, really do appreciate your postings!
