Bug ID: 130857
Summary: Qt5 implement theming using native widgets (weld)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.0.0.0.alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: graphics stack
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: glo...@fbihome.de
Currently LO's qt5 / kf5 VCL backend just uses the QStyle interface to draw the
LO UI to look like native widgets. As a result, this has limits for various UI
designs rendered by native Qt style engines not exposed via that interface.
Already a few years ago, Caolan started to introduce the new "weld" theming
interface, which uses native - in his case gtk+ - widgets, to get even better
GNOME integration.
For the latest progress report, check out his blog:

Currently that API is very gtk+ specific, but this shouldn't prevent adaption
by the Qt backend in general.
