For example Mail, Calender, Photos all supports it but Music, Calculator is still in light mode. Because even after using that Whitesur-Dark theme Dark mode is a hit and miss across apps, even in System apps. I have reported it to Microsoft Edge but it seems something to do with GTK or how theming works in Elementary at all. I tried to launch the browser from terminal with force dark mode parameters and it does nothing. Microsoft Edge Dev also shows the same behaiviour.
Microsoft edge dark mode install#
I've tried to install other Microsoft Edge version to see if it persists and surely did. Being new to the Linux world, I have limited knowledge about how deeply GTK theming can affect other applications. However, after restarting my system, the problem resurfaced, and repeating the same copy-and-revert process no longer works. Afterward, I set the theme back to Whitesur-Dark, and this successfully restored Edge's dark mode functionality. Previously I was keeping them in home/.themes and it showed up in Tweaks anyways), and then changed the theme in Tweaks to a different one from official Elementary themes. I copied the GTK theme files to ~/local/share/themes//gtk-3.0 (Where Elementary Tweaks says to keep all the themes. To resolve this issue, I initially attempted a workaround. Interestingly, the system title bar remains in dark mode throughout.
However, upon closing the browser, it reverts to light mode again. To switch back to dark mode, I need to click on the light mode option and then click on dark mode again. Upon launching Edge, it consistently starts in light mode, despite having dark mode selected in its Settings.
I am currently using the WhiteSur-Dark GTK theme. Since then, I've been encountering an issue with Microsoft Edge where it fails to retain its theme correctly. I recently experimented with various GTK themes using Tweaks on my elementary OS laptop.
