ROBLOX Studio, right now, is a bright and blinding tool. Bright colors are great for web design and good for beginners, but for advanced users who may be spending upwards of five hours a day on this software, it can wear the eyes down. Many of us use Sublime Text for our scripting and then copy/paste the scripts in. Using two pieces of software LIKELY isn’t what ROBLOX intends. The solution I’d like to see brought forth, perhaps, would be a sort of plugin possibility for themes. A simple API that allows us to use Color3 values to set nearly every color in ROBLOX studio, down to the color of the highlight in the explorer, would greatly benefit us. A restriction on this API might be that, in order to change the theme, a prompt would appear asking “Would you like to start using the NAME_OF_THEME_HERE from NAME_OF_PLUGIN_HERE as your ROBLOX Studio theme?”
PS Where is the option to add a poll to a thread? I can’t find it anywhere…
I remember suggesting this to one of the devs (I think UristMcSparks?) as a hack week project. It would let us use QT theme files to style ROBLOX entirely, which would be great.
If you set “themeoptions” (shown above) to “true” in that file, it’ll allow you to use the themes that come with the qtRibbon crap they use.
Only thing is, themes do not persist sessions (meaning you have to set the theme again when you relaunch studio) and each studio update the RobloxStudioRibbonRelease.xml file gets reset.

What about setting that file to read-only?[/quote]Wouldn’t work, because it’s in the studio folder - and that gets emptied and a new studio folder gets created with an entirely new RobloxStudioRibbonRelease.xml file.

Fortunately that’s still only for RibbonBar. As much as I love being able to change things, RibbonBar is just too large for my likings.
For example, I currently get this selection of items in about 2/3 of the space of the normal ribbon bar UI:
