Keepassxc: Add the ability to change accent color

Created on 25 Aug 2020  路  7Comments  路  Source: keepassxreboot/keepassxc

Summary

Allow selection of an accent color, so users can change the default green to color of their choice (either a full spectrum color chooser or some preinstalled few ones should do).

Examples

keepassxc_accent_blue

keepassxc_accent_violet

Color picker might look like this:
color_picker1

Eventually like this:
color_picker2

Context

The context is purely aesthetic.
User might want to match the apps accent with his desktop theme or match the colors of his company he owns or works in.
As minor as it may seem, it will still be value added 馃挕

Not a bad idea, but will require a fair amount of work to get the shading and such correct.

I would like to work on it. Have basic understanding of Qt framework. Will be a good learning experience.

Good luck!

Need a little help. I have gone through CONTRIBUTING.md, forked and cloned the repository. How can I open the project in Qt creator?

Open the cmakelists.txt

So I have been a bit occupied with my college curriculum. But I'm back and here is a little progress that I've made.
I'm aware of a few points like position of the Color button, but that I think can be changed with some help. For now how does this look. Also please tell me what can/should be done.

_p.s. I added the gradient as it looked cool. But have to work on text color change accordingly._

Its an experiment, but that would never be merged in unfortunately. Keep learning, you're making progress.
