Hi to all. I've made three variations to the Minwaita theme because at least for me the default blue color was not very noticeable (maybe my notebook display is not well calibrated or maybe I'm having some vision issues... or both). I have also applied the variation color to the background of active buttons to see better when lock guides and snapping are enabled.
Oh, one more thing. The tweaking is applied only to the dark mode CSS file, well, because I only use the dark mode. Fine tuning may be needed, specially in the shadows (I've made them really quickly just batch replacing the value from default color to the variation one, after choosing the variation color by hue shifting the default blue in "not a Photoshop" image editing software)
The three folders inside the ZIP file must be extracted/copied to the folder set as your "User Themes" folder. Just check in Edit - Preferences, expand the Interface section and select Theming. There is not need to restart Inkscape, just reopen the Preferences dialog and choose the preferred theme (you will need to re-check the "Use dark theme" option.)
Honestly, is not so hard to theme Inkscape (specially if you have knowledge about CSS and web design), people should be encouraged to do their own themes and upload them maybe in a new sub-forum.
Hope they are useful for you, the users of the dark theme.
