MX Fluxbox Screenshots

[siamhie]

New release. New desktop.

Created a horizontal conky and moved the tint2 toolbar below it. Changed the MX logo for the rofi app finder to a fluxbox logo I found here (http://www.fluxbox.org/files/propaganda/).

Added icons to my menus this time around using the <'icon'> variable (except for the System sub menu which gets over written after updates).

Nice, lots of TLC! Haha looks like we have the same Video card (or close anyway)...

Thanks. We do have similar cards. I recall your thread for GPU recommendations and I believe you settled on the RX 6750 XT card.
I looked at Powercolor's 6750 XT cards and they were $100 more than their 6700 XT cards for a minimal increase in performance.

Let's make MX-Comfort a little bit more comfortable for my eyes.

First step: fixing the colors of the sidebar in Thunar:

Code: Select all

.thunar .sidebar .view { background-color: #DEDFE3; 
}
.thunar .sidebar .view:hover { background-color: #B5BABC; 
}
.thunar .sidebar .view:selected { background-color: #0F56D9; 
}

Looks great!

Thanks @Jerry3904. I copied all the icons needed from /usr/share/icons and converted them from svg to png and backed them up to my spare drive for future use.

You can also change the dropdown menu highlight colour with

Code: Select all

.thunar menuitem:hover {background: #B5BABC;}

Finally transferred some of my MX21 conkys to MX23. Rather dark desktop, likely preparing for autumn.

That's a useful trick! Thanks!

Haha!

How do you MX-FB guys get anything done? Either the Desktop is so beautiful you don't want to cover it up with applications or you're too busy tweaking the DE configs to get any work done!

@AVLinux When you start poking around under the hood and see what you can do with the desktop, it gets addicting and you can't leave it well alone.

There's been times I've been out and about and I'll think of something new I want to try out.

@kobaian @Melber Which file is being edited?

@kobaian @Melber Which file is being edited?

I use ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
File needs to be created.
Works like the fluxbox overlay file in that it overrides theme settings.
Entries can be commented out with a forward slash.

Or are you editing the theme directly @kobaian ?
(and if anyone knows how to change the menu radio and check buttons in thunar, please share. Just editing the colours in the svg files doesn't work.)
