Description

This is from Linux Mint Forum. I wanted to post it here, maybe it can be incorporated into the code base:

I found that by changing this line: settings.gtk_application_prefer_dark_theme = false; from true to false in this file: /usr/share/nemo-preview/js/ui/application.js (~line 92), then Nemo Preview correctly follows the theme of the Xed editor

If there's a particular reason this shouldn't be incorporated, please close the bug and forgive my ignorance.

Best,


N.

Research direction

Open /usr/share/nemo-preview/js/ui/application.js and inspect the setting around line 92. Verify how Nemo Preview currently handles the GTK theme and confirm that the desired result is for it to follow the Xed editor's theme. Done means the change is incorporated if appropriate and Nemo Preview reflects the current theme.
