Until now, we were following a similar concept of color schemes as what most OS are doing. For instance, Freedesktop recently introduced a tri-state color scheme of "Prefer Light", "Prefer Dark" and "Default", the latter being either whatever the software prefers (e.g. we prefer either Dark or Gray for graphics software usually) or what the system prefers. See #8675. Until now, with GTK, we only had a boolean "prefer dark" setting through the "gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme" settings. There is not even a "prefer light". Nevertheless for graphics application, there is clearly a third case (fourth if we added a "follow system color preferences" which we don't implement for now): gray mode and in particular middle gray. Having a middle gray UI is often considered a necessity when working on colors in order to protect our perception of color from being influenced by surrounding UI. To fill this need, we were proposing a Default vs. a Gray theme in GIMP, but this was a bit confusing and felt illogical, as discussed on IRC some time ago. Also depending on whether you chose "prefer dark" or not for the gray theme, this one was itself 2 themes, which made things odd and harder to work on. Instead this commit: - adds a color scheme concept in GIMP with 3 variants so far: light, gray and dark. A possible fourth (future) variant might be to follow the system preference (do all OS provide such a queriable option?). - Our Gray theme is merged into Default (as the gray color scheme variant). - Custom themes can add the following CSS files: gimp-light.css, gimp-gray.css, gimp-dark.css which are the base file for their respective scheme. gimp.css is still used as a fallback though it is not necessary (our own Default theme does not provide a gimp.css anymore). Custom themes don't have to provide all 3 variants. A theme can just provide one or 2 variants if it only wants to support 1 or 2 use cases. |

------------------------------
GNU Image Manipulation Program
2.99 Development Branch
------------------------------
This is an unstable development release, an intermediate state on the
way to the next stable release: GIMP 3.0. GIMP 2.99 may or may not do
what you expect. Save your work early and often. If you want a stable
version, please use GIMP 2.10 instead.
If you think you found a bug in this version, please make sure that it
hasn't been reported earlier and that it is not just new stuff that is
still being worked on and obviously not quite finished yet.
If you want to hack on GIMP, please read the file devel-docs/README.md.
For detailed installation instructions, see the file INSTALL.
1. Web Resources
================
GIMP's home page is at:
https://www.gimp.org/
Please be sure to visit this site for information, documentation,
tutorials, news, etc. All things GIMP-ish are available from there.
The latest version of GIMP can be found at:
https://www.gimp.org/downloads/
We also have a website dedicated to documentation at:
https://docs.gimp.org/
2. Contributing
===============
GIMP source code can be found at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/
Resources for contributors:
https://developer.gimp.org/
In particular, you may want to look in the "Core Development" section. Some
articles of particular interest for newcomers could be:
* Setting up your developer environment: https://developer.gimp.org/core/setup/
* GIMP Coding Style: https://developer.gimp.org/core/coding_style/
* Submit your first patch: https://developer.gimp.org/core/submit-patch/
3. Discussion Channels
======================
We have several discussion channels dedicated to GIMP user and
development discussion. There is more info at:
https://www.gimp.org/discuss.html
For the real junkies, there are IRC channels (e.g. #gimp or #gimp-user)
devoted to GIMP on GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network).
Many of the developers hang out there. Some of the GIMPNet servers are:
irc.gimp.org:6667
irc.us.gimp.org:6667
irc.eu.gimp.org:6667
More discussion channels, such as forums, will be listed on the above
"discuss" page when they are moderated by a team member.
Links to archives of former discussion methods (e.g. mailing lists) are
also included in that page.
4. Customizing
==============
The look of GIMP's interface can be customized like any other GTK+ app
by editing files in `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/gtk-3.0/` (settings.ini and
gtk.css in particular) or by using "themes" (ready-made customizations).
Additionally, GIMP reads `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/gimp.css` so you
can have settings that only apply to GIMP.
You can also manually change the keybindings to any of your choice by
editing: `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/2.99/shortcutsrc`.
Have fun,
