    Hello, my first post ;)

    I'm developing one GUI app (among others) in Python with PySide2 and my main editor is VSCode and I'd like to keep it this way - I'm using the standalone Qt Designer calling it from VSCode when necessary.

    I see that the full Qt Creator has a way to select couple of different dark modes in its IDE settings, however I see no such possibility in the Qt Designer launched as standalone application.
    I develop on Windows 10 by the way and setting its dark mode doesn't change how Qt Designer looks, it keeps its Windows Vista look :))).

    Is there something that can be done, maybe a command line parameter?

    Thanks!

            @Christian-Ehrlicher It's a shame :) The designer integrated into Creator IDE uses its theme, so this can obviously be done without too much fuss.

              @aorcl said in Dark mode in standalone Qt Designer?:

              The designer integrated into Creator IDE uses its theme

              This is a completely different application and has nothing to do with Qt designer - I don't think that they're using the same codebase for the ui.
              Feel free to provide a patch for Qt designer.
