Hello
I'm on archlinux Plasma and i have a problem with gtk2 and gtk3 apps themes.when i download new themes using system settings-applications style-download New GNOME/GTK application styles and i apply them, logoff then logon and launch a gtk app the theme is not applied.
I searched on archwiki :Uniform look for Qt and GTK applications  and i added : export DESKTOP_SESSION=gnome to my .xinitrc, but no luck!
this is what my settings.ini looks like in ~/.config/gtk-3.0
[Settings]
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1
gtk-button-images=1
gtk-cursor-theme-name=Layan-cursors
gtk-decoration-layout=icon:minimize,maximize,close
gtk-enable-animations=0
gtk-font-name=SF Pro Display,  12
gtk-icon-theme-name=Tela
gtk-menu-images=1
gtk-modules=appmenu-gtk-module
gtk-primary-button-warps-slider=0
gtk-shell-shows-menubar=1
gtk-theme-name=Layan-dark-solid
gtk-toolbar-style=GTK_TOOLBAR_BOTH_HORIZ

Re: [Solved]KDE-gtk apps not themed!

Which GTK application are you talking about ? Some flat out refuse theming themselves. Terminal output when starting it? You also shouldn't in any case not randomly  export gnome as a desktop session while having a full KDE session that's bound to lead to issues.

Things are generally likely going to be much more predictable if you do system wide installs: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/layan-gtk-theme-git

Thank you very much V1del the  problem is fixed by installing the theme from AUR.
