Update in forest-color-dark.tcl and forest-color-light.tcl lines with color: "#008bff" to your color (use the color picker on the forest-color-dark directory image).

# Change #008bff to your color, use the color picker on the forest-color-dark image

    -selectbg       "#008bff"
}

How to use

Python / tkinter

To use the theme just import the forest-light.tcl, or the forest-dark.tcl file, and call the theme_use method to set the theme:

# Import the tcl file
root.tk.call('source', 'forest-color-dark.tcl')
root.tk.call('source', 'forest-color-light.tcl')

# Set the theme with the theme_use method (toggle)
ttk.Style().theme_use('forest-color-dark')
ttk.Style().theme_use('forest-color-light')
