Open Customize Look and Feel in your menu to open lxappearance. In the Widget tab, we'll select our GTK theme. I am using Breeze-gtk (dark version; included in Breeze-gtk download). This theme will apply to pretty much all applications that we run on our system.

On the same tab just below the preview of the selected GTK theme is the font setting for GTK apps. We'll want to make sure we used the same font as in LXQt's settings.

The next tab in lxappearance is the Color tab, but this only applies if you are running LXDE, so we will skip this tab and move to the Icon Theme. We'll want to make sure to select the same icon theme that we used in LXQt's settings.

Once again in the Mouse Cursor tab of lxappearance, we'll want to make sure to select the same cursors as in LXQt's settings.

In the Window Border tab of lxappearance, we will set the theme that Openbox uses for its window borders. I am using a customized version of Minstral-Thin-Dark that is included in the .themes directory of this repo.

The final tab that we should cover here is the Font tab of lxappearance. This contains the antialiasing and hinting settings for GTK fonts. We'll want to make sure to use the same settings we used in LXQt's settings.
