Re: [PATCH] Dark Theme Fixups

 

I would prefer to see all the applications get a native toolbar for their
main toolbar, I have only hacked it on in the kicad manager currently to
see whether it was popular at all. if not then i won't bother, however i
don't believe the dark patch to remove the gradient works very well on OSX
esspecially in the manager as then the toolbar has no division from the
rest of the window.
