I am using xubuntu 18.04, but this question should preferably be applicable to all linux installations having both desktop managers "xfce" and "fluxbox".

As you can see the window's menubar, as well as the preferences window do not obey the selected theme. This is a problem in "nautilus" file manager as well, but not for other applications (such as "Thunar" file manager, which works correctly)

For that I have set gtk-3.0 in "~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini"
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name = Adwaita-dark
gtk-icon-theme-name = SimplyGrey
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome
gtk-font-name = Sans 10
# next option is applicable only if selected theme supports it
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme = true
I have also setup QT to use GTK+ styles, but the issue persists. What am I missing here ?
apt install fluxbox
as well.
In "Xfce" I use xfce4-settings-manager
