[Github-comments] [geany/geany] New UI on windows is bloated and scaled up (Issue #3063)

[Enrico Tröger]

In case anyone wants to test fancy themes on Windows himself, here are binaries from current GIT master including SVG support:
https://download.geany.org/snapshots/geany-1.39git20220110_setup.exe

> From my POV though, we should be objective and pick what fits to the rest of the OS if we pick a default theme. The user is free to chose more eye candy themes or more contrast ones afterwards.

I just want to note that I don't know how to achieve this: setting a GTK theme for Geany while still providing the user the possibility to change the pre-installed default. If we want to do this, someone needs to implement it.

For me it would be also ok to just let the user change the theme herself (and provide the information how to do this, https://github.com/geany/www.geany.org/pull/40) **OR** bundle a chosen GTK theme and just use this, as done for macOS.
