Thanks. I've been playing around with the halo and shadow effects lately.
This is my Fluxbox . There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My Fluxbox is my best friend. It is my life.
I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my Fluxbox is useless. Without my Fluxbox, I am useless.

After getting rid of anything in the code that won't work for anyone else than me and rewriting it to match the Melber's MX-Rofi color templates as much as possible. (I hope I have understood the coloring-rules properly.)

Code: Select all

/** Iconic-Start-Menu -
	the rofi theme with vertical iconbar by Kobaian.
	It is based on sidetab-adapta (a fork of sidetab theme by deadguy) 
	and MX-comfort theme by Melber & MX-Devs.
	This theme has been dedicated to the public domain.
	
	To display the theme properly, you should install FontAwesome (fonts-font-awesome package)
	and define icons for rofi modi adding to the 'configuration {}' section
	in your config.rasi file the following lines:
    display-drun:    "";
	display-run:     "";
	display-window:  "";
	display-help:   "";
	display-filebrowser: "";
	display-ssh: "";
	display-calc:   "";

Note, that you need to install FontAwesome from the fonts-font-awesome package to achieve the desired look and feel.
You need also add to the configuration {} section in your config.rasi file the following lines:

Code: Select all

	display-drun:    "";
	display-run:     "";
	display-window:  "";
	display-help:   "";
	display-filebrowser: "";
	display-ssh: "";
	display-calc:   "";

My oh my!

That's a fine-looking rofi--any chance we could add it to the special group of "extra themes" being collected and curated for Rofi Manager?

@kobaian @Melber It looks like we could include those "display-" settings in the default config.rasi without disturbing any other theme. Could we? Should we? Here's my draft--which comments out the sidebar mode or else those new settings show up in other themes:

Code: Select all

configuration {
	
modi: "drun,help:/usr/share/rofi/rofi-help";
	//width: 20;
	show-icons: true;
	icon-theme: "papirus";
	//lines: 20;
	//fake-transparency: true;
	//sidebar-mode: true;
	
//the following settings are used with kobaian.rasi;
	display-drun:    "";
	display-run:     "";
	display-window:  "";
	display-help:   "";
	display-filebrowser: "";
	display-ssh: "";
	display-calc:   ""; 
}
BTW: do we need to keep the 3 entries that we are not using (lines, fake, sidebar) in the config.rasi?

It's one of the many-colored 'rounded-" rofi themes I found at https://github.com/newmanls/rofi-themes ... ter/themes.
The original theme is by LR-Tech (as specified in the rasi file header). All version colors are great; and the blue variant simply matches melber's mx-comfort blue.
