Gtk 3 was released, but Pinta is still in white mode on Windows 10 with dark mode enabled, so I would like some update on https://communiroo.com/PintaProject/pinta/suggestions/469/add-darkmode

I'm using macOS in Dark Mode. I would like to have this option. Is there any way you can just add a toggle in one of the menus?

How to do make Pinta use dark mode (similar will work for other GTK apps on Windows):
- Download a theme from Gnome-look (.org)
- Put the folder inside the zip file into C:\Program Files\Pinta\share\themes\
- Edit with a text editor: C:\Program Files\Pinta\etc\gtk-3.0\settings.ini
- Change gtk-theme-name = win32 line to: gtk-theme-name = ThemeFolderName
- Save the file, may have to be admin
- Restart Pinta and if you got it right it'll be whatever theme you used. I recommend gnome-look(.org)/p/1316887

Offhand, I'm not sure if GTK on Windows will notice whether Windows itself is set to a dark theme. You might be able to force it by adding
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme = true
toetc/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
in the Pinta installation folder (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GTK#Dark_theme_variant)
