Description ^{(What is this?)}

This addon provides the Unity Editor with adjustable, hot-swappable GUI themes across all elements using native and custom data formats.

Reason ^{(Why was it made?)}

The system was initially created to provide on-the-fly adjustable styling standards for custom editor windows/inspectors/properties. It was later extended for global editor usage. It's intended to allow users to establish general-purpose aesthetics that are adaptable to needs as well as uniform to their existing development applications.

Features ^{(What can it do?)}

* Supports swapping of editor themes globally or between individual custom editors. * Supports palette (color) adjustment. Palettes are usable between different themes. Alt+F1 and Alt+F2 are hotkeys for previous and next palette. * Supports system color usage (select Windows versions only) as well as manual adjustment. * Supports forced interval repainting as Responsive UI option to allow for global hover/interaction effects. * Supports theme variations and keywords within .unityTheme files. * Supports GUIStyle and GUIContent overriding in base skin as well as static style-container instances.

Compatibility ^{(What environments will it function with?)}

Currently, the system has been built and tested on Unity 5.0 through 5.4b21 on Windows/Mac/Linux.
