#### Prerequisites You need to have `python3-gobject` binding and those executables: - `glib-compile-schemas` - `gdk-pixbuf-pixdata` - `sass` For GTK2 you need murrine engine which can be not installed by default.
#### GUI git clone https://github.com/actionless/oomox.git cd oomox ./gui.sh
#### CLI: git clone https://github.com/actionless/oomox.git cd oomox ls colors ./change_color.sh gnome_noble # or other theme from above
next select oomox-current in your appearance config tool (for example, _lxappearance_)
#### Icons: For icons you need to have `inkscape` and `imagemagick` installed. To generate `gnome-colors` iconset with the selected colorscheme:
git clone https://github.com/actionless/oomox.git cd oomox ls colors ./gnome_colors.sh gnome_noble # or other theme from above
next select oomox-current in your appearance config tool (for example, _lxappearance_)
#### Spotify: git clone https://github.com/actionless/oomox.git cd oomox ls colors ./oomoxify.sh gnome_noble # or other theme from above
Make sure to remove `~/.config/oomox/spotify_backup` when upgrading Spotify to the new version. Also you can replace font with `-f` argument, see `-h` for usage.
### Using the theme with tiling WMs:
To resolve borders/shadow problem in tiling window managers create/append to `~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css`:

#### Demo video
One of the users, Spatry, made this cool demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dh5TuIYQ6joLast changelog:
Another bug I found in Thunar: Unless you're using a dark theme, the selected_fg_color matches the fg_color when a folder is highlighted. For example, I'm getting black text on blue when it should be white text on blue.
I LOVE this app! I have, however, noticed a bug. When the header and background colors are different, I have noticed that the panel gets styled differently between GTK2 and GTK3. In Xfce 4.14, 4.12, and maybe even further back, this makes it look like a total train wreck. For the record, I think how it's done on the GTK3 side in that situation should prevail.
Also, I have a feature request: Could you add the ability to have gradient selected_bg_colors in menus and progressbars and the ability to select our own slider, scrollbar, and progress bar look and feel?
Other than that, it's an awesome time saver when creating themes! Thanx for creating it! :-)

it was a problem with some particular values fixed that in 0.10.1 (uploaded it here already)
also, i am using GTK+ 3.14 so in 3.12 i think it can be some appearance problems with checkboxes and radios
