Use gnome theme about tuner HOT 7 OPEN

Thanks for the response @BzfpWg9g - had no idea gtk-nocsd existed! I'm on Debian 10 and I installed it right from the repo. But unfortunately can't figure out how to get the nocsd to work with flatpak. Any tips? Couldn't find too many answers by googling.

Sorry, @smalltimer, no experience with flatpk but there should be deb file in normal repository. After installing try adding this to ~/.profile

export GTK_CSD=0
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libgtk3-nocsd.so.0

Maybe you need to reboot/logout afterwards. I know I had some difficulties getting this to work but can't remember the steps.

Hi again, do you mean this repo for tuner has a .deb too? I can't seem to be able to find it.

Ah I understand. You installed Tuner via flatpak and gtk3-nocsd via deb. No, unfortunately there is no deb for Tuner (as far as I know). Did you try adding the 2 lines in ~/.profile? Did it work?

If not maybe flatpak, snap, etc. behave differently than regular installations. I built Tuner from source so I can't tell. If you want to check if gtk3-nocsd is working you could try installing some regular application which uses client side decorations, e.g.. gnome-mahjongg.

With Debian you can install gtk3-nocsd systemwide so there's no need to include it in .profile. I tested it with gnome to-do and it works.

Regarding tuner: I don't understand why CSD cannot be left alone In any case, the software works. It's just ugly on most operating systems! Leaving this open in case someone comes up with a trick to make gtk3-nocsd work with flatpak.

I read some pages about flatpak now and it seems the applications are isolated from the rest of the system. Stumbled across this site: https://githubmemory.com/repo/kujeger/flatpak-gog/issues

flatpak run com.gog.PrisonArchitect

You could try to find out the folder for Tuner, maybe something like /home//.var/app/com.github.louis77.tuner/ and putting libgtk3-nocsd.so there (if the folder is persistent).
