sudo apt install qt5ct
After installing qt5ct you will have to configure an environment variable so that the QT platform theme calls on qt5ct and not GTK. For non XUbuntu distributions, you can add `QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct` to the `/etc/environment` file. For XUbuntu distributions you will have to perform the following:
After installing qt5ct you will have to configure an environment variable so that the QT platform theme calls on qt5ct and not GTK. Navigate to `/etc/X11/Xsession.d/` and search for a file named `56xfce4-qtconfig`. This may or may not be present depending on your distribution and it may be under a different name (for XUbuntu the file name is `56xubuntu-session.`) If this file is not present, then you could try adding `QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct` to the `/etc/environment` file.
- Open `/etc/X11/Xsession.d/56xubuntu-session` in a text editor as root or sudo elevation.
- Open `/etc/X11/Xsession.d/56xubuntu-session` (or 56xfce4-qtconfig) in a text editor as root or sudo elevation.
- There will be a line with the following "# QT5 apps to use GTK style" and below that the variable `export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2`
- Change the variable to `export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct` and save changes made.
Now lets copy the Chicago95 QT5 color palette.
- Copy the Qt colour scheme file from `Chicago95-master/Extras/Chicago95_qt.conf` to `/usr/share/qt5ct/colors`.
- Copy the Qt colour scheme file from `Chicago95-master/Extras/Chicago95_qt.conf` to `/usr/share/qt5ct/colors`. If the directory path doesn't exist, them make it. (mkdir -p /usr/share/qt5ct/colors)
- Log out then log back in.
Once you are logged back into your desktop you can access Qt5 Settings.
Once you are logged back into your desktop you can access `Qt5 Settings` (or run `qt5ct` from a terminal.)
- In the QT5 Settings window adjust the style dropdown to "Windows."
- For the Palette Color scheme adjust the dropdown to Chicago95_qt. This will make the colour scheme match the Chicago95 theme.
- For the Palette Color scheme adjust the setting to `Custom`
- From the Color scheme dropdown select Chicago95_qt. This will make the colour scheme match the Chicago95 theme.
- In the Icon Theme tab you can select the Chicago95 icon theme here.
- In the Fonts tab you can select the fonts to be used in QT applications. (Liberation Sans 8 for a general font looks nice.)
- Click "Apply" to apply adjustments and OK to finish.
