SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download Dolphin from https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Dolphin_Release_win64/ (Tested with both Nightly and Release)
2. Try to modify dolphinrc to reflect katerc (after changing theme in katerc)
3. Make this wishlist request because I love dark mode (and Dolphin)

OBSERVED RESULT
No Dark Mode possible

EXPECTED RESULT
Dark Mode setting somewhere

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 22.04.2 and 22.07.70
macOS: N/A
Linux/KDE Plasma: N/A
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: N/A
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.95.0
Qt Version: 5.15.5

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Love Dolphin, and would 100% switch to it as my daily driver File Manager on Windows (and enable data collection <3) if I could switch it's theme to something Dark. I noticed Kate binaries for Windows come with Breeze Dark built-in, and read somewhere that on Windows it has to be built into the binary for Qt apps. Saw a few other posts on Stackoverflow discussing how to get this working, and figured I would throw a wishlist bug up because I hadn't seen anything else on the topic. Please let me know if any additional information is needed, and I will gladly supply. Thank you for all the hard work on KDE!

This is moot for me now, attempting to mark as resolved
