GIMP seems too dark to me - WGz - 07-03-2021
Hello,
I previously had a GIMP that seemed quite bright to me and I saw everything more
clearly. After the update from openSUSE_Leap_15.2 to now 15.3, the GIMP appears
much darker, so that I have trouble seeing details.
How/where can I change that?
Thanks for hints.
Greetings, WGz

Gimp seems too dark
Is it the theme that you need to change.
In Edit -> Preferences -> Theme There are Dark / Grey / Light / System options The default is Dark example: https://i.imgur.com/IGpgmST.jpg
and
In Edit -> Preferences -> Icon Theme Change from a Symbolic theme to a colour theme and adjust the icon size example: https://i.imgur.com/PN7yFgF.jpg
In addition, if you prefer the older tool box style Edit -> Preferences -> ToolBox and untick Use Tool Groups example: https://i.imgur.com/sH8dMrW.jpg
