Hi all, I'm new to Qt and I have tried to set up a theme.
I'm using Qt 5.5 for Mac OS X El Capitan.So far it is partial set up, as the project explorer and console are keeping the original settings.
I tried this theme:
https://github.com/mervick/Qt-Creator-DarculaYet a the phase "- And run
qtcreator -color "#2b2b2b" -stylesheet /path/to/dracula.css
" I am unable to do it.I tried running it from terminal, but it states "-bash: qtcreator: command not found".
An example of how to give arguments to Qt start.. but I need specifics, as again I don't know where to give the arguments.
Any help or links are much appreciated. -

What is the output ofwhich qtcreator
?If this returns nothing, then try to run it with
/path/to/qtcreator -color "#2b2b2b" -stylesheet /path/to/dracula.css

I really appreciate your time.
In terminal 'which qtcreator' returns nothing.
I have copied the .css file in '.config/QtProject/qtcreator/styles'.The issue is that I cannot find where/how to set arguments to Qt when it starts.
I have a coupe of days through the Qt documentation and google-ing. I cannot provide screen shots here in the forum..Should I change that in the .ini file? If so, then where I need to do it.
I'm not sure if I give the correct path here (it's dragged to the terminal so there are no spelling mistakes):
Hs-iMac:~ hibonda$ /Users/hibonda/Qt/QtCreator.app -color "#2b2b2b" -stylesheet /Users/hibonda/.config/QtProject/qtcreator/styles/dracula.css
-bash: /Users/hibonda/Qt/QtCreator.app: is a directoryI am running the program from QtCreator.app, therefore I don't know what am I doing wrong here..

Hi and welcome to devnet,
The path to the actually binary is
Qt\ Creator.app/Contents/MacOS/Qt\ Creator

Wow! that was the path! very accurate!
So for anyone else seeking for this :
/Users/yourName/Qt/QtCreator.app/Contents/MacOS/Qt\ Creator -color "#2b2b2b" -stylesheet /Users/yourName/.config/QtProject/qtcreator/styles/dracula.css
This is the correct path (to be run in terminal).
