    the dark theme isnt going to work, those themes are for composites some parts may work, but will generally look totally wrong / awful
  • s
    yeah… I really wanted a dark theme but win32 🤢
  • b
    yup, its out of my hands im afraid... if you want native (via wx), then you are going to have to deal with the OS (window) hating dark themes, and being incredibly shit at them
  • b
    although, what about wxQT on windows?
  • s
    does mac have a dark theme & is it good with the OSX port
  • s
    that’s experimental
  • b
    mac has a dark theme, yeah... and its supported "ok" in wx
  • s
    my app is unusable on QT
  • b
    ah, right, yeah, that selected thing
  • s
    what about GTK? that’s what my main computer builds with
  • b
    GTK on windows?
  • s
    wxGTK yeah (but i use it on linux)
  • b
    i havent tried that on windows... in fact, ive never tried any of the wx alternative builds on windows
  • s
    well it has no build instructions 😅
  • b
    yeah, when i get some downtime id like to restart haxeui-qt
  • b
    but its all time...
  • s
    i think just letting wx handle it is better than DIY
  • b
    true, but as you've found, wxQT and wxUniversal dont seem like they get a lot of traction and have issues
  • s
    well QT is experimental 😅
  • b
    so is wxUniversal afaik
  • b
    there is merit of a haxeui-qt (and hxQT) and haxeui-gtk (and hxGTk)... but, well, its not 10 seconds of work
  • i
    unrelated to you guys' convo - but menu bar on android is surprisingly nice to use
  • i
    using the unholy combination of a desktop UI on a mobile phone playing with a gamepad
  • b
    because you can put anything in it?
  • i
    you mean component-wise?
  • i
    I haven't tried putting anything except regular menu items in it so far
  • b
    yeah, just wondering why you are saying its nice basically
  • b
    dropdown menus dont feel unnatural on phone?
  • i
    it just feels nice to have a standard UI when most phone apps are a mess of hamburger menus and 10 different variations of slide-out or -over modals
  • i
    honestly I loved the Windows Phone sliding tabs UI
