            Bug ID: 433529
           Summary: Add a setting to use dark color scheme or to select
                    color scheme
           Product: gwenview
           Version: 20.08.2
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: gwenview-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: jan.rathm...@gmx.de
  Target Milestone: ---

This is a sort of usability enhancement I propose here.

On my system I use the default "Breeze" color scheme for nearly all
applications, but modified ~/.config/gwenviewrc to make Gwenview use Breeze
Dark color scheme (like described here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/9ciyqv/kde_how_to_change_specific_app_theme/
).

I have run it this way for at least a year and I'm really satisfied with this
tweak, since viewing images subjectively works better for me when Gwenview uses
a dark theme/Breeze Dark (on the other hand I don't like it that much if
everything else has a dark color scheme).

Since adding whole color scheme definitions to gwenviewrc is a bit messy, I
would like to propose to:

- Either add a setting (regardless if it is enabled or disabled by default) to
make Gwenview use a dark color scheme even if a bright color scheme is used
globally (if that's feasible).
- Or make it possible to select a color scheme that Gwenview should use instead
of the global one (via Gwenview settings and/or gwenviewrc, something like
"OverrideColorScheme=Breeze Dark" instead of needing to copy&paste the whole
scheme definition). digiKam offers something like this at the "Settings ->
Design" submenu.

Kind regards,
Jan
