I use a GTK 3 application ("Revolt" on
Debian/Devuan) and its titlebar is
so ugly. I tried to use my TDE style for it in "GTK Styles and Fonts" and
it only makes it worse. GTK 2 applications look much nicer with Tqt3
integration, but GTK 3... It's an eyesore no matter what, to say the
least.This brings me to my question - is there any way to make GTK 3 apps
integrate more nicely into TDE? I have gtk3-tqt-engine-trinity installed
but there's only the default style available or use my TDE theme for it
(which breaks it and makes it look worse).
For GTK3 I recommend installing the package "gtk3-nocsd". It will force GTK3
applications to refrain from drawing their own titlebar (client-side
decoration as the Gnome folks call it) and will restore the TDE titlebars
instead.
Secondly, I recommend the GTK2/3 theme "TraditionalOk" from the
"mate-themes"
package of the Debian repositories, which gets quite close to TDE's Plastik
theme. Once installed, you should be able to select it for GTK3 in the "GTK
Styles and Fonts" panel of the control center.

Did we not already discuss this matter in two or three previous threads?
"GTK 3 TQt Engine Styles"
(See 7/28/2021 where a method is summarized by the present author.)
Also:
"how to force TDE colors in non-TDE apps? SOLVED"
2021-01-18 or thereabouts
(an exchange mostly between E.Liddell and myself).
I don't know if it will make the scroll bar more manageable -- I don't seem to
have that problem -- but as far as forcing TDE's themes and colors in non-TDE
applications, and resolving issues with gtk2, gtk3 and the Qt/TQt stuff ...?
Well, it does what I want. No worries here, I can get on with doing other
things.

For disabling the auto-hide behavior of GTK3 scrollbars this should do the
trick (copy and paste the following commands into konsole):
echo "export GTK_OVERLAY_SCROLLING=0" > \
"$HOME/.trinity/env/gtk3-static-scrollbars.sh"
chmod +x "$HOME/.trinity/env/gtk3-static-scrollbars.sh"

Hello Leslie :)
Judging from your signature, you are running openSUSE right?
If so, the package seems to be available for openSUSE as well:
https://software.opensuse.org/package/mate-themes
In any other case, the upstream source seems to be located here:
https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-themes/tree/master/desktop-themes/Trad…
They do have Git branches called v3.xx.x referring to the GTK3 version, which
needs to match your system's. I do not know the exact build process they use
though.

For GTK3 I recommend installing the package "gtk3-nocsd". It will force
GTK3 applications to refrain from drawing their own titlebar
(client-side decoration as the Gnome folks call it) and will restore

Yes, this is by design. Judging from the "AUTHORS" file of the upstream
repository of TraditionalOk, it seems to be fork/continiuation of
Clearlooks-Phenix, which in turn was a GTK3 port of the Clearlooks theme of
the GTK2 days.
