You can already start krita with any (supported) application style with krita --style fusion By default, only fusion, breeze and plastique are allowed. But if you start Krita like this, all styles work: KRITA_NO_STYLE_OVERRIDE=true krita --style windows It's not as easy as a menu, but until we copy the kdenlive code, you can at least use your preferred style :-) (In reply to Boudewijn Rempt from comment #1) > You can already start krita with any (supported) application style with > > krita --style fusion > > By default, only fusion, breeze and plastique are allowed.

I totally forgot about reporting this one. Thank you for telling me, and Thank Scott for making it work! |
Created attachment 117699 [details] kdenlive application style selector SUMMARY Under KDE Plasma, Krita automatically uses the application style determined by system settings. By default, it is Breeze. Meanwhile, the appimages from krita.org uses Fusion. This might be a personal preference, but I think in general, Breeze works better with light themes, while Fusion works better with dark themes. With a dark theme, Breeze style emphasizes its widgets' borders too much, making the UI look very busy. When it comes to Krita, I find Krita's default theme -- and all its dark themes -- function way better when they are under Fusion. The problem is, if I changed the system's application style to Fusion, almost every other KDE application become hideous. Kdenlive has a pretty neat solution: it has a Style selector in its Settings menu. It'd be neat to have this function in Krita too.
