Hi Bill!
How did you manage to get kpdf show the pdfs inverted?
This is what I have managed so far:
- dark colorscheme for TDE + usable scrollbars
- usable scrollbars for GTK2 + GTK3
- almost identical fonts for menues in TDE and GTK
Maybe my "problem" is that I want to keep using my own self-created
theme,
which goes back to those days of yore, KDE 3.5 and Kubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04.
I just want non-TDE programs to use a dark theme like Adwaita Dark (?) if they
will not use my TDE theme. I do hope that I can keep using my TDE theme, as I
don't want to reinvent the wheel yet again. (I still don't get royalties for
having invented it the first time, right after I invented fire.)
What does not work:
- firefox scrollbar width changes according to the clouds in Norway.
- GTK colorscheme does not match TDE, which is to be expected
- libreoffice is always black on white, inverted.
OO uses GTK2, so you need to install gtk2 themes and set the desided theme
with lxappearence. I thenk there was an environment variable something like
e.g.
I don't use the LXDE desktop, as it started doing intrusive stuff, just
like
KDE5 and the Gnomes. However, if lxappearance could help in this, I might be
willing to see if I can borrow and adapt a few items. I believe I still have
folders with the config files for LXDE.
GTK_THEME=Adwaita:dark gedit
to get "gedit" use dark theme. If I recall correctly from previouse
versions of libreoffice it needed libreoffice-gtk2 to work (if it did at
all) - and I remember some versions didn't give a s***t, so probably OO is
no different.

Yeah, that background would at least be tolerable, if I could get my non-TDE
programs to use it, but not use it for TDE.
