Change the color of the menu and symbol bar ...

Hi, Is it possible to change the color of the menu and symbol bar at the top of the IDE? I use the dark scheme on Windows 11 and would like to use it for the menu and symbol bar of the app "Geany", too, but I don't know how it works. Regards ... Gregor

The theme for all elements except the edit pane is set by the GTK theme, see the new FAQ for an as yet not merged (ping @eht16) FAQ for how to do it.

Hi Elextr, Thanks for your reply.

Hello, I followed the FAQ guideline How to change the GTK theme? on Windows 10.
To make it work on my machine, I had to change the location of file settings.ini from c:\Users/<YOUR_USERNAME>\AppData\Local\gtk-3.0\ to c:\Users/<YOUR_USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\gtk-3.0\ . I would assume that this change is also required to Windows 11.

@elextr thanks for the reminder. I merged and deployed the PR and it is now available at https://www.geany.org/documentation/faq/#how-to-change-the-gtk-theme.
