Xfce panel widgets #5

Closed lisandrodemarchi closed 7 years ago

lisandrodemarchi commented 7 years ago

I was looking for a theme like this for a long time. It's great for graphics work. Thank a lot!

As with original Materia theme, Xfce panels have some clipped or hidden widgets: equilux-xfce-panel

I grabbed xfce-panel related lines from arc-dark theme which has full support for xfce and added them at the end of the gtk-2.0/gtkrc file ( gtkrc.txt ). I also added some lines to the gtk-3.0/gtk.css ( gtk.css.txt ) to match the colors of gtk3 widgets to Equilux palette (for the time being, the only gtk3 widget I know in xfce-panels is the pulse-audio one). After the patch: patched-xfce-panel

It is a dirty patch and I guess there are some unnecessary lines left but it seems to works and could be useful for other Xfce users or as the base for a proper fix by someone more skilled than me ;).

Thanks for the thanks! I think that your post should be forwarded to @nana-4 because the topic belongs to the upstream theme since it is not specific to the Equilux fork. Let's see what @nana-4 thinks about it.

Well, I already have a plan to support the GTK3 version of Xfce (4.14) with Materia:

The reason why I focused only on the GTK3 version is that GTK2 theming is a painful task, and Xfce is just porting to GTK3. However, the full GTK3 version of Xfce may be available more later than I thought. So, I might support the current version of Xfce when I have time. 😃

It looks like the cause of the problem will addressed upstream: closing the issue.
