# Qt and GTK
Catppuccin Macchiato with a **lavender** accent, fixed rather than
wallpaper-tracking: Qt and GTK apps only pick up a theme change when they
restart, so a moving accent would leave running apps disagreeing with new ones.
Lavender is also `udt-accent`'s fallback, so anything without a wallpaper-derived
accent lands on the same colour.
## Upstream themes
Neither is generated by this repo; both are installed from upstream.
| | Theme | Source |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Qt5 + Qt6 | `catppuccin-macchiato-lavender` | `catppuccin/Kvantum` |
| GTK3 + GTK4 | `catppuccin-macchiato-lavender-standard+default` | `catppuccin/gtk` v1.0.3 |
`catppuccin/gtk` is **archived upstream**. v1.0.3 works and is what the
ecosystem uses, but it will not track future GTK4/libadwaita changes. Removing
it is just deleting the directory from `~/.themes`.
## Wiring
- **Qt5/Qt6**: `style=kvantum-dark` in both `qt5ct.conf` and `qt6ct.conf`, with
`custom_palette=false` so Kvantum supplies the palette. Previously the two
disagreed: qt5ct used a hand-rolled grey/purple scheme and qt6ct used
`/usr/share/qt6ct/colors/darker.conf`.
- **GTK3**: the theme name has to be set with **gsettings**, not just
`settings.ini`. On Wayland gsettings wins, and it was pinned to `Breeze`,
which silently overrode the file. `icon-theme` was likewise stuck on
`breeze-dark` while `settings.ini` said `Material-Black-Plum-Suru`.
- **GTK4**: libadwaita ignores `gtk-theme-name`, so `~/.config/gtk-4.0/theme`
is a symlink to the theme's `gtk-4.0` directory and `gtk.css` imports it.
## Reproducing
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'catppuccin-macchiato-lavender-standard+default'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface icon-theme 'Material-Black-Plum-Suru'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme 'prefer-dark'
