Sigil dark theme
I'm using Sigil 1.4.3 in MX Linux21, previously when I'm using dark theme in Linux19, it worked fine, but not with Linux21, is there any dark theme for Sigil or is there a way for me to change the background color to dark?

Sigil supports native dark themes on Windows, and MacOS, and Dark themes on Linux as well. Not sure which version of Sigil it was added. Have you tried with later versions of Sigil? There is an environment variable that can be used to override system settings if needed as well.

I use qt5ct and/or kvantum on Linux to theme Sigil. They work pretty well. There is also a dark theme inherent to Sigil that you can force by setting the environment variable FORCE_SIGIL_DARKMODE_PALETTE to 1 , but I don't remember off-hand when the built-in dark theme was added to Sigil. Maybe 1.1-ish?
EDIT: Yep, the Sigil Linux docs indicate 1.1. qt5ct relies on the QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME environment variable being set to "qt5ct" to work. Perhaps one of the env vars got borked in the upgrade? Last edited by DiapDealer; 12-31-2021 at 12:43 PM. |
