QGnomePlatform
==========
# QGnomePlatform project is unmaintained a no longer actively developed.
QGnomePlatform is a Qt Platform Theme designed to use as many of the GNOME settings as possible in unmodified Qt applications. It allows Qt applications to fit into the environment as well as possible.
## How to compile
This library uses private Qt headers and will likely not be forward nor backward compatible. This library will have to be recompiled with every Qt update.
```
mkdir build
cd build
cmake [OPTIONS] [-DUSE_QT6=true] ..
make && make install
```
## Usage
This library is used automatically in Gtk based desktops such as Gnome, Cinnamon or Xfce.
This platform theme can also be used by setting the QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME environment variable to "gnome". For example, put the following command in `.bashrc`:
```
export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME='gnome'
```
