You can use tools such as the GTK Inspector (video link below) to improve the way Inkscape looks for you and other users. + +If you have questions feel free to drop by in the Inkscape UX team's chat: https://chat.inkscape.org/channel/team_ux + +# Upstream Policy + +When modifying themes you should consider if the theme changes you are applying are specific to Inkscape or are generic to any Gtk application.
