[SOLVED] qt5ct doesn't find some installed Qt theme

Jeff_WuYo · 2021-04-21 16:02:00

Hi,
I try to config my Qt theme with "qt5ct", but there's an issue, qt5ct doesn't find some Qt theme which I installed from arch repo. For instants, breeze package does get picked-up by qt5ct, but materia-kde does not. I want to use less bloated package, which is materia-kde in this case. Is there any solutions to make it work? Did I miss some dependency? Some aur package doesn't work either, i.g. arc-kde-git.

Environment: Qtile

Only qt5-styleplugins works in qt5ct.

By using qt5-styleplugins, it does work fine. Another question tho, according to the Archwiki Qt page, I can set the environment variable "QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=gtk2", and ditch qt5ct, my Qt theme will still match up to my GTK theme, right?

Update: It does work. I found out its easier to manage theme between Qt and GTK. Thanks for your help.

What? Of course not, any Qt style should work with qt5ct.

@Jeff_WuYo: materia-kde is not a Qt style, that's why you can't see it in qt5ct

My point was that qt5-styleplugins works very well in qt5ct.
