I’m KDE plasma user (so no “advanced” GTK settings aside from “gtk theme”) and I have buttons (think “OK”, “Cancel”, “Help”) on bottom of most dialogs.
Gimp, however has buttons on top of the dialogs.
I tried switching from “Breeze” GTK theme to classic Aurora (which always had buttons on bottom) with no luck.
Can I somehow move buttons to the bottom? It’s driving me crazy as I don’t find the buttons
The button location is part of the UI layout of a program. With other words, this can only be changed by changing code or a specific UI data file, depending on how it was programmed.
So, unless you want to change the code and recompile Gimp, no, you won’t be able to change it.
This is controlled by the gtk setting gtk-dialogs-use-header.
On X11, you may be able to change it by editing .config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini (unless it’s overwritten by XSettings).
It seems that on Wayland, it’s forced to TRUE by default, so only way to override it would be to add an option on applications side (i.e. in GIMP) to change the value.
Maybe a simple Python plugin could do the thing?
