Krita looks so bad on my PC due to me wanting to use a custom colour scheme. I prefer my Qt apps to match, so it’s pissing me off that a KDE app uses its own fuckery. (I’m using the flatpak, but my other flatpaked Qt apps are matching, such as Prism Launcher on the bottom of my screeenshot). I’ve got dark elements on dark elements, and ugh it’s so bad…
In Krita, Settings -> Themes
I’m guessing you’d have to make your own Kvantum theme and then apply it there (assuming you don’t also need to copy over?). Just a guess, theming in general seems like a mess to me.
I was expecting Krita, a KDE app, to just integrate immaculately with Plasma
My understanding is that Krita has custom color schemes to provide a more neutral environment that won’t affect the user’s perception of the image. It’s a thing that a lot of other image editors, especially the ones aimed at professionals, do.
And also blender which comes with several colour themes.
Wilber wants a word
So the real question is why it doesn’t default to the default theme.
It does not, because you are using a “sandboxed” version (flatpak), so it does not really know what themes/colors are available.
