MX Fluxbox Screenshots

No idea what you are doing, but the result is great.

I spent some time working with DO on the desktop icons, and finally decided just to take the Papirus svg icons, recolor to match the blue used in the conky and export them in Gimp to png. Going to make captions visible to remove any ambiguity about function.

Here is the result, including the style that I'm going to go with until the next Beta or Release Candidate.

so, a bit of light entertainment amongst all this beta testing.
@Huckleberry Finn's modern art quip to my last desktop got me thinking...and the result is fluxbox De Stijl style

Hello JayM
Find more Styles, between. More between than Styles.
There is a being-between Styles style.
Select another Style and the screen changes. Hit restart fluxbox and the Style completes its change. Sometimes the in-and-between of that first style selection click gives a combination not found in any Style, and may be attractive. Find your highlight color on a different menu color(?) Sometimes i like it enough to leave it and not hit the refresh.
tenr Style creme, with dark text, has cool pixmap buttons corner (?)
and switching from creme to ostrich
there is an in-between that is remarkable.

Hello JayM and everyone
Jerry3904 thank you for talk about Style.
frameless transition, could have round bottom and squared top corners; less visual impact at the top corners upon transition(?)

Does the lack of grip in Style ostrich fit with your idea of frameless borderless windows? even with the frame it is a step in that direction (?)
Style ostrich is well-colored for 21(?) (nearly folder tab brown. range just enough.)
don't forget border size is grippable to move windows. left mouse hold, moving.

too much color matching plus transparency is a washout; retain some contrast(?)

Styles are plentiful. I give attention to the unfocus window label color, the grip focus/ unfocus color, the menu disable color. background unset, or none.

i shade windows , so need the unfocused text readable.
i like to see the grips colored when unfocused.
most Styles i cannot see the menu disable text color.
sometimes i switch the taskbar iconbar states of flat or raised focus/ unfocused to suit the Style. often i pick the opposite of most styles, with flat for focus and raised for unfocused. The color sets it apart, not the bevel. (then there is the color reverse; see garnet-reversed.)
(When fluxbox toolbar is at bottom) here is example of grip reflecting taskbar icon state color. justa trick.
using moonstone. [attaching share example data]


garnet reversed; switch the focus/ unfocus coloration. for darkened wallpaper.

A favorite of mine is Style Twice; it is like putting a tuxedo on the pc.
Can we say that antiX is the grandDaddy of fluxbox?
