Description:

A gtk theme to match enlightenment dark theme.

BIG FAT WARWING: THIS IS NOT A GNOME/SystemD OS THEME !!! AS THE NAME IMPLY. SO DO NOT EXPECT ANY GNOME/SystemD OS SUPPORT. (THERE WON'T BE ANY!)

ANOTHER BIG WARING: gtk-3 does not support any decent arrow theming but chosing a color. Go ask GNOME/SystemD OS devs why...? BRANDING !!! THEY WILL CERTAINLY SAY. Say good by to that nice gtk-2 feature as it is scheduled to be deprecated in gtk-3.14. (They should have deprecated it since gtk-3.0 because GtkArrow widget is useless since gtk-3.0.)

First screenshot with gtk-2.0 apps (Xarchiver, jack-mixer, GMPC (GNOME MPD Client), PCManFM).

Second screenshot with gtk-3.0 apps; and PCManFM (gtk-2); *unknow* gtk-3 filemanager is SpaceFM (gtk-3), with Evince, Meld and LADI Settings (LADI.org).

(Terminal app is Rxvt-unicode/Terminology)

Any hope of this theme being updated to work with GTK 3.20?

I am hoping to use this GTK theme with Bodhi 3.0.0

I have one major issue with the current theme. The second screen of the Ubuntu Ubiqity installer has unreadable text:

Well, I cannot help... The faulty part are using frame from adwaita engine recognizale in any adwaita theme based; There is no such frame in this theme; And furthermore, it does not use adwaita engine. I am not sure `StateBox' is a valid widget name either.

Good luck.

ADDITIONNAL NOTE:

And this is clearly the case here--brandy look imposition--because the faulty part of the UI uses recognizable frame (from adwaita engine.)

The app, or rather the devs of the app, _seem_ to have hardcoded adwaita engine theme.

I am looking at the .ui file for this part of the Ubiquity installer and the object doesn't appear to have a hard coded theme. It is a "StateBox" object.

I've uploaded the code that generates for viewing here -> http://paste.debian.net/140981/

Yes, it seems there is a new widget called "StateBox" (without a "Gtk" prefix) introduced in gtk+-3.14.
(I am using gtk+-3.12 and I did not found anything related to it in the documention... I noticed the availability of 3.14 in Gentoo portage tree, but I have to upgrade to it.)

So try this:

I can't manage to get these patches to apply properly. What command am I supposed to be using and what is the patch file supposed to look like? Could you just patsebin an updated css file for me?

Well then grab them:
http://pastebin.com/75gZspqd
http://pastebin.com/C1CS8ADb

Just run `patch -p1 < FILE' in the sources directory or in `/usr/share/themes/e' if installed.

(You should have patch binary or grab on the Debian/Ubutun official repository. You could have just edited the file at hand with context provided by those diff...)

Luck.

Sorry to say this, but it might be difficult to solve this issue... I mean this issue is common with dark theme among web-browsers that openly override native theme to have a _brandy_ look (namely Firefox & Chrome-ium.)

Unfortunately, this issue plagues gtk+-3 apps because... GNOME/SystemD OS devs openly set new politics on a... (new) _brandy_ look.

At first glance, the app seems to be a gtk+-3 apps that does not respect the fore/background color.

The only workable thing to do is either have a look at the sources files--this is a tedious job--to locate exactly what widget is being used and try to make a hack... Or else, look at other themes (take gnome-theme-standard as a starting point) for possibly other/or the same hack you're looking for (for Ubiquty)--this less tedious than the previous methode, but this does require some luck on your side.

I have never used Ubiquity so, I cannot provide additional tips but the previous (and I don't see it in the official Gentoo portage tree.)

Good luck!

I'm trying to tweak the colours of the "File Edit View..." text on the menu bar to be more like the E17 menus. I think the default text colour is #fafafa then the nice Darkness Blue on focus or click. I'm poking around the css files and trying changes but nothing seems to do what I want. Is this even possible? Any idea where I should be looking ?

Thanks

Grab the latest tarball which have white text in menubar (gtk-3.0 only). Still pondering for gtk-2.0.

It's really easy to tweak for gtk-2.0, so no comment here.

Hi again. Thanks for the update (0.17.0) but the menu separator has made the theme worse imho. It doesn't blend in well so I reverted back to 0.16.10. The separator wasn't necessary :-)

Hope you don't mind the slight critiscim and my 2c worth. Other than that this is by far my favourite theme now with e17 ;-)
