[solved] customize Gimp
Sun May 23, 2021 4:56 am
GIMP Version: 2.10.23
Operating System: Windows
GIMP Experience: New User
I wanted to apply Davies' indications here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uKqtmuXj_A
He copies "UI" and "gtrc" :
and paste them in his custom folder:
But I can't paste my "ui" and "gtrc":
in the folder I created following his instructions in:
D:\Gimp-2.10.22_Portable-32-64bit-Win\Preferences\themes\B_Dark_custom
Operating System: Windows

Hate those 14 minute videos from Davies, less about Gimp more about creating revenue. However.
Try MareroQ plugin change menu & icons.py from viewtopic.php?f=11&t=19154&start=10#p261235
Put it in the samj plugins folder, find it in the Gimp 'Windows' menu, set some size, re-start Gimp.
If you do not like the result, run the script again or delete the gtkrc it creates in the samj Preferences folder.

Thank you rich2005 
.it's OK and thanks to MareroQ.
I had the courage to go to the end of the 14min56 and I appreciate that, thanks to MareroQ, no need to open gtkcr with notePad++ to make the changes....
Being stubborn, I kept wondering why I couldn't copy and paste UI and gtkrc and found I could do it by going directly to D:\Gimp-2.10.22_Portable-32-64bit-Win\share\gimp\2.0\themes\Dark but not when I was viewing that folder from Edit/Preferences/Folders/Themes etc/...Weird but it won't keep me awake at night.
