Export to Kvantum

[null-von-sushi]

Would it be possible for oomox to also export a kvantum theme? For example, I am trying to change ARC to have red accent colors instead, which works for GTK-based applications, however it doesn't work for QT.

everything is possible but i am not using KDE myself so i could only assist to some KDE user to implement it

Oh I see. Unfortunately while I'd be willing to help, I don't really know actual programming sorry.

Thanks for willing to include it though.

Here is an example for a Kvantum theme. It consists of a config file, a colors file and an SVG file making up the bulk of it.

I see a huge potential in combining the power of the two theme engines for a unified look and feel.

i think it can be bootstrapped as a copy of base16 plugin which also converts hex colors into rgb components

or alternatively it can be done as part of oomox-gtk-theme, https://github.com/themix-project/oomox-gtk-theme/issues/55

i would love kde support since I am trying to swap to it due to Steam OS 3.0 using it and I would like to get used to theming kde

recently new templating engine started being developed as a plugin by @The-Repo-Club :

https://github.com/The-Repo-Club/oomox https://github.com/The-Repo-Club/oomox-templates

the old way is using standard mechanism used for gtk themes etc: https://github.com/themix-project/oomox-gtk-theme/blob/master/src/qt6ct_palette.conf

[CreativeCodeCat]

I'll have a arch install file made up for it as soon as I get it completed :)

I might also make it installable though sudo make install too

if you're a kde user, you could use one of proposed ways to contribute the template for your wm

implemented in base16 plugin

[lavenderdotpet]

implemented in base16 plugin

Please tell me how to use it. I can't find an export to kvantum... It is not in base16 templates

[actionless]

because depending of if you use kde or not, you configure it either via kde settings or via qt{5,6}ct
