I'm using Kubuntu 19.10, with KDE plasma 5 desktop.

I have problems when I run GTK apps, because they like ugly. Here is an example:

I used the same Desktop in other computer and they look fine.

How could I solve that?

Thanks!

    Open System Settings > Application Style and below all the default KDE themes, you should see Configure GNOME/GTK Application Style ... Click on that and then make sure you choose a decent GTK2 theme in the next window.... Not Raleigh!!! I don't know why that is included.

KDE Plasma 5.18 has moved things about a bit.

If a GTK application doesn't look proper, please open System Settings > Application Style and then, near the bottom, click on Configure GNOME/GTK Application Style .... In the window that opens, choose a suitable GTK2/GTK3 theme but preferably not Raleigh. You'll see an approximate preview of your choice as well.

  • i changed theme from Breeze to Adwaita and then back to Breeze and it looks similar to KDE interface now. Seems like some kind of configuration issue.
