Cursor not themed in snap

[elcste]

Using the snap, the cursor does not follow the system theme. It's more obvious if you change the cursor theme to something that looks different, like "redglass", but even the Ubuntu default Yaru theme and size is not followed. One Qt app snap that this does work in is KeePassXC. It looks like their snapcraft.yaml has some additions plugs for theming.

Thanks, I'll look into this. I'm currently working on adding support for more languages but can do this next. If anyone's interested in making a pull request in the mean time feel free. I based my snapcraft.yml on a template from the snapcraft forum and didn't look too hard at the theming so there may be other issues as well.

I think I'm going to wait on implementing this for now. Based on the forum docs it seems like Snapcraft theme support is being somewhat actively developed and it may be worth waiting until they add templates.

I tried implementing what they said to in the linked post but wasn't able to get it to work. Also, on my Ubuntu 20.04 setup the theme doesn't seem to work even when installing from Python so this may be a deeper issue. PyQt should have pretty good cross-platform theme support so I don't know why this is happening. This would be a good feature to have long term though, it could have accessibility implications and it would be nice to support themes.

A “Black Theme” option in the Menu would be a nice addition in the future.
