[Closed] Changing Qt appearance without KDE

Hi there!

I use Gnome as my desktop, but I use few applications based on Qt. The default Qt interface looks very ugly so I emerged redhat-artwork (USE="kde") . But I don't know how to change Qt look to bluecurve. I tried qtconfig, but there's no bluecurve in a list of interfaces to chose from. I'm not familiar with Qt since I've never used it.

Could You write what I should do to change the theme?

thx for any replies

Best regards
pave

afaik, qt has no themes, only KDE provides themes for its widgets.

You may be right, I don't know anything about Qt and KDE. But when I emerged redhat-artwork with kde useflag, the whole (i think) kde stuff got emerged also. So maybe there's some way to change the theme using kde tools?
Generally I want to achieve something like in Fedora, where I run Gnome, but qt apps look like these based on gtk.
