[SOLVED] Changing the GTK3 Theme in KDE

I've got the standard oxygen-gtk package installed and that works for GTK2 applications, but GTK3 apps were still unthemed. I then install oxygen-gtk3-git from the AUR and there's a gtk3 folder in /usr/share/themes/oxygen-gtk but I don't know how to set the theme for GTK3 applications. Is there a program I can use?

Re: [SOLVED] Changing the GTK3 Theme in KDE

try editing the settings.ini file in /home/your-user/.config/gtk-3.0/ folder, put something like this

[Settings]
gtk-theme-name = oxygen-gtk
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome
# next option is applicable only if selected theme supports it
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme = true
# set font name and dimension
gtk-font-name = Sans 10

and see if it works.

That worked, thanks. Gedit crashes out with an error now but I'll look into that later.
