How to enable UI Theme Support in QGIS 2.12?


According to the 2.12 Changelog QGIS now ships with a light and a dark UI Theme. A longer description of the UI themes can be found at Nathan Woodrows blog on QGIS UI themes.


However, when I install QGIS 2.12.0-1 via OSGeo4W there is only the option to choose the default theme.


Does anybody know whether there is another option I am missing to enable the dark theme?

Edit:


According to the QGIS repository the Theme should be saved under QGIS/ressources/themes. I am missing said themes folder even after a re-install and a fresh install of QGIS 2.12 from OSGeo4W.


Edit2:


Nathan Woodrow confirmed it as a bug and is on it. In the meantime I copied the themes folder, like @Mapperz suggested, and everything looks great now.


Edit3:


Annnnnd it is fixed. That was fast!



Answer



Worked this out - the theme folders are missing from the release for the QGIS UI Themes.


I created the folders and copied the files from https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/tree/master/resources



restarted QGIS and the Night Mapping Theme is now available.

I would class this as a bug in the first release of QGIS 2.12
