10 Awesome theme sir

vicshibe

Amazing theme! this has been my go-to for whenever I hop to GNOME, it looks clean and doesn't get in the way and bonus points for having an actually usable and aesthetically pleasing dark mode! After some time i decided to use the theme assembly project (having 0 knowledge about theming) and managed to get a consistent theme using the Maia accent colors... and the next day manjaro updates and some stuff breaks a little. Still, a solid theme and looking forward to a gtk-4 fix, keep up the good work man!

9 Very nice theme. -1 for not missing GTK2 support. There are apps which are still using GTK2 and the majority of themes on this site have GTK2 support.

10 Dear Paul, Thanks for the theme! I'm using the Steel Blue variation and, when using Nautilus with the Icon-List option, the Icon and Text do not look vertically centralized... When the row is Focused, a little extra padding on the bottom is visible... idk if its intentional, just letting you know. Keep up the great work! Best regards!

paulxfce

Yes, it is intentional. To have a rounded bottom radius, in the list-view, it was necessary to add some padding at the bottom of the window.

denezpariz

The very best ! Steel blue is stunning ! Thkan you very much Paul !

glacierfox

Really love this theme except for some reason the top window buttons decrease in size when the window is unfocused. I'm using the dark variant and whenever i select another window, the title bar buttons decrease in size. Is this a bug?Looks kind of strange.

glacierfox

Actually. You know what I like it! Forget what I said.

paulxfce

It is because the backdrop- title buttons have an inner-shadow. In the dark theme this makes them look smaller.

glacierfox

Ah I see, well after using it, it looks good. Also I was just wondering if i could somehow change the window icons or am i unable to as its now a binary file. I like to add an extra 'light' button for when they are pressed like this : https://imgur.com/GToFG2Z (The mouse disappeared from my screenshot)

10 essentially a perfect theme

paulxfce

That is what it should be...

pulsifier

I've been suing this theme everyday since v1.3. Thank you for your work, I really love it. Would it be too much trouble too create an alternate version with the standard buttons of v1.3?

fblais

Thanks much for the great new colors Paul! Amazing work! :)

paulxfce

Thanks

The gtk2 backport is still missing as of 1.5 (tried Steel Blue and Purple). Looks like it's being thought about on in https://gitlab.com/paullinux/gtk-theme-assembly-project though. Is this due to become a scripted build?

paulxfce

True, but gtk2 required a lot of manual adaptation especially with the graphics. With 8 color-variants it becomes a tedious job.. with gtk4 around the corner and the subsequent fase out of gtk2, you will eventually look for alternatives.

1freepony

The gtk2 colors are still used by Firefox, and QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2 ("QGtkStyle") is still important if you want Qt5 apps to closely match the chosen GTK(2) theme. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Uniform_look_for_Qt_and_GTK_applications#Theme_engines (Unfortunately QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gnome ("QGnomePlatform"), supposedly the modern way of working and the default, doesn't adopt the gtk3 colors. Just the decorations and fonts; for me it doesn't even support Adwaita-dark) Perhaps these projects will eventually support gtk3 or gtk4, but that hasn't happened for years. Can some of the rebuild tedium be scripted away? I really wish you the best of luck! Your themes are always just so darned nice looking, so I hope you find a workflow that automates some (all) of the maintenance horrors :)
