Hi all, kovid
not to necrobump - but that has been a topic that intruiged me for quite some time. just to roll a couple of Ideas here - no intend to ask for a dev change ..but some ideas.
1) if we use the binary version of calibre it will use the internal styling and as I can see from the previous post there is no way to change that except using the distro provided package, and i get the reason ... truly i get it ;-)
2) can we:
a) include at least the 2 major "styles" adwaita and breeze in a selection box - even on specific CALIBRE_QT_THEME variable in the binary release?
export CALIBRE_QT_THEME="awaita"
export CALIBRE_QT_THEME="breeze"
that would incorporate the style nicely with 80% (guess) of the desktops and still using the uptodate version of calibre
b) piggy back on the idea like the icon sets? something similar to "download" a QT style and apply?
so we could for a majority of themeing at the various distros solve that point.
since I dont have a win box I dont know how calibre currently loks on Win10 but I assume simlar behaviour there.
what you guys think?
\Pete
