    What desktop environment are you running? (E.g. cinnamon, mate)

    What have you tried so far? Have you used Settings->Themes?

    What parts of the theme are the wrong color? (E.g. background, taskbar, desktop icons)

      Yes, sorry for forgetting to specify I’m using cinnamon, and yes, more specifically I’m seeking to edit the color palette of a given desktop theme I downloaded so it fits perfectly with my colour scheme, as if there is some documentation I can read on how to modify custom desktop themes.

        I haven’t tried this myself, but I found a resource that might help. I hope it’s not too out of date (2018).

        Edit: Remember to make a backup of any files before changing them.
