Symbolic panel icon

[ghost]

Would you consider adding a symbolic panel icon?Looks pretty out fo place on the panel. :/

[collinss]

Done.

New version has an option for that in settings.

[ghost]

Well that was pretty bloody fast XD Thanks!

[collinss]

No problem. It didn't take all that much effort as I had already added that feature to another applet. :)

The symbolic icon is gone again? Also left/right padding in the popup is too small now

[collinss]

Try adding -symbolic to your icon name. I didn't remove the option, only changed it to behave more like the menu applet.

As for the padding, I couldn't make it look good on all themes, so I decided to make it more themeable instead. I thought about adding the padding back in through css, but as there are some themes that are designed to look better with no padding at all on the sides, I decided against it. I looks like I could have removed the padding from between sections though. If you want to theme it you can look at stylesheet.css in the applet folder for a list of available tags. Once I'm done, those tags should work for Office Center and Graphics Center as well.

I hadn´t noticed that you added a stylesheet!I updated my main themes.

@zagortenay333 Just FYI: I just added a couple more available tags - xCenter-scrollBox and xCenter-menuItemLabel. The first one allows you to style just the scrollable area, while the second lets you set a max-width for the menu item label. I don't know if you will find them useful or not, but they're there now if you want to use them.

I made use of the fact that the .xCenter-pane selector also works for the Recent section to update the Zukitwo-Dark theme.Check it out!

[collinss]

Not bad! I'm glad you were able to do something with this.

Also, I see that you were able to make use of the about dialog tags. I plan to add the same dialog to all of my spices, and at some point I'm planning to submit a pull request to Cinnamon to add it for all applets and desklets. It will be nice to already have some themes that support it.

[ghost]

Indeed, those about dialogs look very neat!

One thing I noticed is that the link in the about dialog doesn´t support an underline.I tried text-decoration: underline, but it doesn´t seem to work here.

Oh and one more thing, do you know whether it is possible to override certain general css properties for popups in the case of individual apples?What I would love to have is the ability to keep a vertical padding for all popups but override it for some. Here is an example:

And this is what I would love to achieve:

Usually I accomplish this using descendant combinators. For example, I used one for this applet to override the hover effect from a light rectangle to a black rectangle .xCenter-mainBox .popup-menu-item:active {}, but here I have no clue how to do it. I also mentioned it in this issue https://github.com/mockturtl/cinnamon-weather/issues/65 Any ideas?

[collinss]

There are a number of possible solutions that I can think of, but they all involve changing the code in cinnamon, or the applet itself. I don't know of any way to do it using only css. Unfortunately css doesn't have a "parent" or "contains" selector. If you want, I can add a name to the popupmenu, so it would at least work on mine.

[ghost]

Would be awesome.And if your solution works, could you propose to the guy who makes the weather applet to do the same?

[collinss]

With the latest versions of my applets, .xCenter-menu should allow you to override any element in the menu.

[ghost]

Superb! I updated my theme.I think it looks amazing now :D

Could you make a pull request for the weather applet?Would be amazing if it had this too!

[collinss]

Yeah, I was planning on it, but hadn't had the chance. I'll do it right now though.
