i havent been able to get gtk themes working
<energizer`>
i have gtk = {enable = true; theme = {package = pkgs.shades-of-gray-theme; name = "Shades-of-gray";};};
<energizer`>
which produces the settings.ini, it just doesnt make gedit any darker
<energizer`>
or transmission-gtk
<energizer`>
do i need to do anything else?

energizer`: which desktop environment are you running?
<Emantor>
energizer`: At least the sway wiki mentions that settings.ini is not really respected on the wayland backend, and dconf is used instead. i.e. the data inside $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/dconf/user is used.

Emantor im using qtile window manager
<Emantor>
you can try setting NIX_GSETTINGS_OVERRIDES_DIR to the gsettings schema path and using gsettings from glib.
<energizer`>
Emantor what is the gsettings schema path?
<Emantor>
gsettings requires schema files to know how to write to the dconf databse and do verification
<Emantor>
There is gsettings-desktop-schemas in pkgs and the path would be something like /nix/store/ixwds4qhckqgrimp12ppkgyjihl7921g-gsettings-desktop-schemas-3.34.0/share/gsettings-schemas/gsettings-desktop-schemas-3.34.0/glib-2.0/schemas/
