If you want color themes in Pd you can use PdNext from Seb: https://github.com/sebshader/pdnext/releases/tag/0.52-1 I am on linux too, manjaro and works quite well!! He now has a theme-picker plugin, it is quite useful too: https://github.com/sebshader/color-themes-plugin

Thanks, IOhannes, for the link. It's easy to get lost in old documentation.
Does anyone know if any of the instructions on http://puredata.info/docs/guiplugins are applicable to Pd 0.5+ anymore or should we update the page to show which versions of Pd are capable of using these tcl plugins?

Hi, list.
In Pop_OS (Debian derivative), I created a file called *canvasgrey-plugin.tcl* and populated it with:
set ::canvas_fill "gray75" set ::text_color "#222"
I've openned Pd, created new windows, saved the preferences, but seen no change in the canvas or text color. Any suggestions?
This page http://puredata.info/docs/guiplugins/GuiPluginsAPI seems
recent
this page refers to pd-extended (long dead), and doesn't apply to pd
(vanilla).
theres currently no way to set the colors in Pd, but there's a [196]
that tries to add this possibility.
