Implement theming for QtCreator
Adds a 'Theme' tab to the environment settings and a '-theme' command line option. A theme is a combination of colors, gradients, flags and style information. There are two themes: - 'default': preserves the current default look - 'dark': uses a more flat for many widgets, dark color theme for everything This does not use a stylesheet (too limited), but rather sets the palette via C++ and modifies drawing behavior. Overall, the look is more flat (removed some gradients and bevels). Tested on Ubuntu 14.04 using Qt 5.4 and running on a KDE Desktop (Oxygen base style). For a screenshot, see https://gist.github.com/thorbenk/5ab06bea726de0aa7473 Changes: - Introduce class Theme, defining the interface how to access theme specific settings. The class reads a .creatortheme file (INI file, via QSettings) - Define named colors in the [Palette] section (see dark.creatortheme for example usage) - Use either named colors of AARRGGBB (hex) in the [Colors] section - A file ending with .creatortheme may be supplied to the '-theme' command line option - A global Theme instance can be accessed via creatorTheme() - Query colors, gradients, icons and flags from the theme were possible (TODO: use this in more places...) - There are very many color roles. It seems better to me to describe the role clearly, and then to consolidate later in the actual theme by assigning the same color. For example, one can set the text color of the output pane button individualy. - Many elements are also drawn differently. For the dark theme, I wanted to have a flatter look. - Introduce Theme::WidgetStyle enum, for now {Original, Flat}. - The theme specifies which kind of widget style it wants. - The drawing code queries the theme's style flag and switches between the original, gradient based look and the new, flat look. - Create some custom icons which look better on dark background (wip, currently folder/file icons) - Let ManhattanStyle draw some elements for non-panelwidgets, too (open/close arrows in QTreeView, custom folder/file icons) - For the welcomescreen, pass the WelcomeTheme class. WelcomeTheme exposes theme colors as Q_PROPERTY accessible from .qml - Themes can be modified via the 'Themes' tab in the environment settings.
