QtCurve: is there a way to influence widget sizes?

Hi,

By and lagre, QtCurve is the most popular Qt/GTK theme, and for a good reason: it's a working solution . The widgets are just a shade too big to my taste, though, especially on 1280x800 resolution. Krusader Fx buttons waste way too much screen estate; meanwhile, I can't help but remember nicely and rationally themed KDEmod3 Krusader . Is there a way to improve the situation?

I prefer the GTK-Qt-Engine method:

Are you still in KDEmod3, or are you in 4 now?

After a few quick searches, it looks like widget size is defined by your theme.  So if QtCurve is too big for you, try looking for another theme.

Qt supports a CSS like theming syntax. Never really got into that, so i dont know this will work for you, but you should check it out:
