Hello, Geany Developers
I successfully compiled and run Geany on Windows using MinGW. However I have a small problem. When I run the newly built Geany it uses different theme than the one that comes with the binary distribution of Geany. The binary distribution uses native theme which makes the editor look like native application. For the compiled version I changed the theme by copying C:\libs\share\themes\MS-Windows\gtk-2.0\gtkrc to C:\libs\etc\gtk-2.0\gtkrc. With this theme it looks more native but it is still not quite the same. However if I copy the compiled Geany version to c:\Program Files\Geany\bin i.e. in the binary distribution directory it runs with the native look that I want. Unfortunately in this case there is some rendering problem. Some widgets, for example the notepad widget in the bottom, doesn't redraw properly. Probably this is caused by some difference in the GTK+ versions. Still, I suspect that there is some other configuration file or what ever in the binary distribution that makes the difference in the look and feel. Could someone give me a hint?
