Applying third-party themes to Qt Creator


I downloaded Qt Creator and I want to set the Dracula theme for it.

It is instructed that third party themes are to be put in $HOME\.config\QtProject\qtcreator\styles (Windows). Fine, but after I've copied the file into that folder, the theme is not showing up in the theme list, when I'm trying to set a new theme in Qt Creator, selecting Tools > Options > Text Editor > Theme-button.

I'm quite (90%) sure the path/location is correct, but I assume the themes have moved to somewhere else.

How do I set up this theme, instead of the default dark-theme?


Solution

  • The themes were moved to PathToQt\Qt\Tools\QtCreator\share\qtcreator\styles, where the .xml file is to be placed.
