Install and Use Additional Gedit Color Themes
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Gedit is one of the most popular text editors in the Linux world. It is primarily a text editor but [with some tweaks][1], you can use it for programming as well.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, programmers often prefer a darker theme and Gedit is no stranger to that. It comes with a bunch of themes to choose from.
|
||||
|
||||
However, if you are not satisfied with them, you may also install third-party color schemes. If you want, you can even create your own color scheme to make it completely unique.
|
||||
|
||||
Let me show you how to change the default Gedit theme first and then I'll share how you can install additional, third-party themes.
|
||||
|
||||
### Change the default Gedit theme
|
||||
|
||||
As I mentioned earlier, Gedit comes with a few color schemes of its own. You can easily switch to them.
|
||||
|
||||
Go to the top right hamburger menu and select _Preferences._
|
||||
|
||||
![Select Preferences from the top-right hamburger menu][2]
|
||||
|
||||
Now, go to Fonts & Color Tab.
|
||||
|
||||
![Select the Fonts & Colors tab in the preferences section for changing colors][3]
|
||||
|
||||
From there, you can change the color scheme. You can see how all these color schemes look in the screenshots below.

|
||||
|
||||
Don't like what you see? Let's explore third-party Gedit themes.
|
||||
|
||||
### Installing third-party color schemes
|
||||
|
||||
You need to download the required color scheme files from the internet first and then add them to Gedit from the Preferences or put them in .local/share/gedit/styles folder.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Step 1: Download color Scheme Files
|
||||
|
||||
Third-party Gedit themes are available on various GitHub repositories. For your convenience, I am listing some repos where you can find a lot of scheme files.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Schemes by Mig][13] (better looking)
|
||||
- [Schemes by gmate][14]
|
||||
- [GNOME Wiki][15]
|
||||
- [Other repos][16]
|
||||
- [Gnome-Look][17]
|
||||
|
||||
On the above repos, you can find XML files. Open the theme XML files and download them by using the _Save File as Raw Data_ option, as shown below.
|
||||
|
||||
![Download XML files for Gedit themes][18]
|
||||
|
||||
#### Step 2: Install Individual Theme Files
|
||||
|
||||
If you have handpicked some theme files, you can install them one by one using Gedit Add scheme feature. For this, open the _Preferences > Fonts & Colors_ tab. Now, click on the "+" symbol on the bottom left:
|
||||
|
||||
![Click on the "+" sign on Fonts & Colors page for adding individual XML files][19]
|
||||
|
||||
From the resulting file browser, select the downloaded theme file and click OK.
|
||||
|
||||
!["Neon", a newly installed theme][20]
|
||||
|
||||
This theme will now be visible on the same Fonts & Colors tab, and you can switch by clicking on it.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Alternative step 2: Install Themes in Bulk
|
||||
|
||||
Did you download an entire GitHub repo of themes? Then it is not convenient to install themes one by one. Do not worry; Gedit has color theme directories that can be used for bulk installs.
|
||||
|
||||
You have to copy and paste all the XML files to `.local/share/gedit/styles`.
|
||||
|
||||
After that you will get a thumbnail of all the themes on the _Fonts & Colors_ tab.
|
||||
|
||||
![Fonts & Colors tab will list all the user installed third partyy themes, that are available for switching][21]
|
||||
|
||||
If there is no _Styles_ directory, create one. Now, the themes will be available for that particular user.
|
||||
|
||||
💡
|
||||
|
||||
On Linux Mint, you can copy the XML files to`/usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0`directory, which will be accessible for both Gedit and Xed editor.
|
||||
|
||||
### Remove a Gedit theme
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't like some themes, you can delete those files from the location. Or, go to the Fonts & Colors section. Now select the theme that you want to delete and press the "-" sign on the bottom left.
|
||||
|
||||
![Select theme that you want to remove from the list and press "-" button][22]
|
||||
|
||||
This will delete that particular color scheme.
|
||||
|
||||
### Some good looking Gedit themes
|
||||
|
||||
The below screenshots give some suggestions from my side.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Blackboard
|
||||
|
||||
![Blackboard (gmate)][23]
|
||||
|
||||
#### Catppuccin
|
||||
|
||||
[Catppuccin][24] is a dark Gedit them, good if you use any similar GTK theme.

||||

||||

||||

||||

||||

You can get more themes by searching on [GitHub topics][33] and repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
### More Gedit tweaks
|
||||
|
||||
That's just one of the many [ways you can tweak Gedit][1]. Here are some more for you to explore.

Enjoy Gedit in more colors :)
