Subject: Why do themes stack?
Date: Sat, 31 Jan 2015 07:54:16 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87vbjnnm9z.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Throughout my work day I'll switch themes now and again to go from high contrast to lower, or from dark to light. This process requires disabling the present theme and then loading the next theme; if you forget to disable, the themes stack, usually with undesirable consequences.
Why is it implemented this way? Does anyone out there actually gain utility from theme stacking? Or am I doing something wrong? I would think the simpler implementation would simply to have "load theme" automatically disable the present theme, which is both conceptually and pragmatically easier. But the manual doesn't seem to mention much about themes, so I haven't found an explanation (or possible use) for this stacking implementation.
