Don't know if this will help at all. The solution is intended more for non-TDE applications, to get them to accept the chosen TDE color scheme. Moreover, it works great on some non-TDE applications (e.g., OpenOffice, Psi-Plus, PaleMoon browser), but doesn't work on others at all (e.g., LibreOffice, Firefox, Icecat, Seamonkey, and many others). This is for me a matter of legibility; I literally cannot *see* the fonts in most newer applications, because they aren't designed with older folks in mind. I sometimes get up almost nose-close to the screen, and still have trouble making out the names in menus. For what it's worth, I have been using my same color scheme, menus, font sizes, etc. -- almost exactly identical, with only some tweaks along the way -- since KDE3 days, about 2006 or so. I created my own color scheme, examples of which you can find on TDE's screenshots page. I don't use any prefabricated themes. Nevertheless, you may find that it helps you; if not to solve the present issue, then maybe somewhere down the way, for some other issue. Search the Trinity mailing list for the heading "GTK 3 TQt Engine Styles"; I think that there are also two or three other threads on the same topic, under different headings. https://askubuntu.com/questions/706528/qt-apps-stopped-inheriting-gtk-themes/748186#748186 https://web.archive.org/web/20201111174652/https://askubuntu.com/questions/706528/qt-apps-stopped-inheriting-gtk-themes/748186#748186 If you do go this route at some point, remember the last step, which is essential: sudo sh -c "echo 'export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct' >> /etc/environment" Then, if memory serves, reboot. The instructions work for Devuan, or probably any Debian-type system.
