[SOLVED] GTK2 / GTK3 Problems with some apps

hey folks!

yesterday i upgraded [fresh usb-install] to waldorf64 and there is one thing driving me nuts.

i installed a gtk2/gtk3 theme and picked it with lxappearane, but some apps are still using the waldorf theme... i even changed the ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and the ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini by hand, but nothing changed... for example skype: i told skype to use gtk, but nothing happens... o.O it's all bright, therefor something went wrong... it has to be DARK...

can someone help me or gimme a hint what or where to change?

thanks in advance!

Hello,

if I'm not mistaken Skype is a qt4 app (like virtualbox' qt4-GUI, VLC's GUI or like LibreOffice not following gtk) and doesn't react like gtk-apps should. An idea would be downloading the qt4-qtconfig tool (I think that's the name) and change the theme using this - no warranty though.

sudo apt-get install qt4-qtconfig -y

SOLVED!
