Have just tried Moksha Radiance theme for 1st time. Seems to be a grayscale theme but when I open programs, the background is light gray and the text, buttons, etc are all white, making it impossible to see the items and make choices. Can I change these settings in this theme and if so, how?
Maybe you are talking about GTK applications. Yes, there is an issue. I made new GTK 3.2x theme for radiance theme and pushed to the git repository. All what is needed is making new deb file. I can do it during the weekend and upload to the repo. Then I will let you now how to make it work, OK?
I followed instructions, got the installation done and ran a simple test to see if behavior is more to all of our needs.
WORKED PERFECTLY with the 1st test I tried. All boxes were visible and all text as well.
Worked like a charm Stefan, Thanks VERY much. Craig
under themes try moksha radiance and under application try adwaita or whatever it is and gnome for the icons. i found that combination to work nicely for me on 2 laptops and even set it up for my wife on hers.

I am adding this post for a couple reasons; first, I am rather happy that I was able to figure this out, and second,
I hope that this info will be helpful to others.
I tried Moksha Electric Blue Theme and had the same problems that saw when first trying the Radiance theme, i.e.,
light gray background with a white text that was very hard to work with: really could not see text, buttons, etc.
I thought to myself; "I'll take a shot here" and copied the gtk3.2 folder from the radiance theme folder to the
electric blue folder (there was no gtk3.2 folder here). once I had performed this copy,
Moksha Electric Blue theme seems to be corrected as Radiance is.
This gtk3.2 folder is the trick. Stefan sent me to a repo and after following instructions (see earlier post in this thread)
Radiance theme was perfectly fixed. Now it seems that MEB theme will be repaired as well with this gtk3.2 folder.
Hope this helps others. Thanks again so much, Stefan Craig
Your solution is working but you don't need to waste your HDD space with copying the same data. It is easy to select a suitable GTK theme in "Applications Themes" settings:
Also, I have installed the blueelectric theme to see the condition. I am not sure this theme deserves to be in the BL 5 repository. As you can see there are many theme glitches: bad text position in quick launcher thumbs, many widgets text ellipsis issues and also lack of ELM and GTK themes. Yes you can select the Radiance themes but to be precise we need to create new GTK ones for blueelectric for better matching.
I promised my self finishing the passion theme for my colleague and maybe one day I will create the one for blueelectric. It is a matter of 10 - 15 mins in oomox editor.
