Questions tagged [theme]

Questions pertaining to the Blender GUI theme. Blender themes can be customized and exported in the User Preferences.

For more information, see the Manual

The colors for each editor can be set separately—simply select the editor you wish to change in the multi-choice list at the left, and adjust colors as required. Notice that changes appear in real-time on your screen. In addition, details such as the dot size in the 3D View or the Graph Editor can also be changed.

Themes use Blender’s preset system to save a theme. This will save the theme to an XML file in the ./scripts/presets/interface_theme/ subdirectory of one of the configuration directories.

2.79 theme for 2.8

simple question: Did anyone port the default 2.79 theme to 2.8 yet, or at least to a theme that's as similar as possible? Just exporting the old default theme and installing it in 2.8 is mostly ok, but has some issues.
