I've seen discussions of work done on an Oxygen style for QtQuick.Controls, which wouldn't make much sense if there weren't a matching one for QtWidgets. > Functionally, there are a couple of points I wanted to raise. > First of all, lxqt-notifications and lxqt-panel are heavy users of > QSS.

I doubt QSS will be dropped as long as QtWidgets remains and this in turn won't be dropped for quite some time since so much Qt software depends on it. > I think these two apps are actually great candidates to port to QML, > which allows a lot more freedom and high level control over their > looks. s/QML/QtQuick/ :) > On specifics, the Qt theme itself is very hard to control - very few > graphics devs actually know how to deal with that stuff. > Icon themes are easier mainly because there's already a large set to > choose from. I read somewhere, but can't unfortunately remember where, that someone is working on an "asset based style", basically a QStyle plugin that loads various things from "assets", most likely images.
