Some colour schemes for Lazarus : https://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/UserSuppliedSchemeSettings
Click on the scheme name to see the settings.
The layout can to some extent be achieved by using the anchor docking component : https://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Anchor_Docking
Edit : and the component toolbar can be hidden, I think the option is under the View menu.

This is no Lazarus 3.0 concept, only an ask for skinning on windows, because he have said, he is a delphi guy.

When all people can do is start debating colour then it's time to pack up and move on.

"Difficulty?" exclaimed Ford. "Difficulty? What do you mean, difficulty? It's the single simplest machine in the entire Universe!"
The marketing girl soured him with a look.
"Alright, Mr. Wiseguy," she said, "if you're so clever, you tell us what colour it should be."

There isn't much new, the functionality should be the same. Just a UI/UX overhaul. Imo Lazarus should have anchrodocking by default, for beginners the single forms are confusing.

Do i need x posts to share some things with the community? Whats wrong with that?
Also i dont get your point whats wrong with being a guy which is working mainly with Delphi?
Why so much negativity?

Although theming/skinning is of course nice to have, it is extremely difficult to implement it complete. E.g. on some platforms dialogs and messageboxes take the OS default, so need to be made ownerdrawn.

Thanks for your feedback, i will try make a different theme soon.
Ye the implementation is a whole different part, this is just a very early concept :)
This concept could be useful or useless, if a few people agree on a UI overhaul, then i can continue thinking about it and maybe commit something in the future.

Did you know about Trolls in a forum ? This is the reason. Ok, this is your first post direct in a diskussion, so it looks ok :-)
BTW: The dark theme in windows is or was nearly not documentated and without documentation you can not support a widgetset well. And it was designed for UWP Apps

Some Programms make it by itselft, but Lazarus is using the widgetset.
