[Scidvspc-users] Extra ttk themes

[Steve A <ste...@gm...>]

The window docking feature is a themed tk (ttk::) feature, and you can
see the themes under Options->Theme

There cant be too many around, but I found a few themes here at tktable.

(theme source download link)

They are probably for Linux only, but i'm not sure. Attached is a
screenshot from my box.

Installation may need lots of messing around, and quite possibly
compiling from source. I have uploaded my x64 tcl packages here
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/scidvspc/files/support%20files/ttk-themes.x64.tgz/download
move the 5 directories or so to /usr/local/lib (or /usr/lib or /lib64)
depending on your tcl install directory

Then load them using this hack, and look at Options->Theme after
restarting Scid.

Lots of messing around, but interesting. And I couldnt get the
WinXP-Blue and Aquativo themes going, so have left them out of the
tarball.
