Hello  
When I install an application through the Software Center the applications don’t have the proper theme applied. They just look gray. When I install them with sudo apt-get install it works fine.  
Is it possible to fix?

Make sure you’re not installing the snap version of that application through the Software Center…

Do make sure you hit the details button and scroll down - it will have the information whether the package is a snap or a .deb

If its a snap then most snaps have theming issues at the moment. This is still “TBD” to resolve by the snap team.
