5 years ago I dont know how did this slipped up from my notification, really sorry for late reply.
For handling gtk theme, there are mainly two ways.
The hard way
You can manually edit ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini and include your gtk preferences like fonts, themes and icons I will attach a boilerplate for those at the end.
The easy way You can install and use lxappearance to manage your themes and icons using simple and minimal gui Its what I would suggest you to use, lxappearance doesnt have any additional dependencies and works quite well.
If you would like to know my current theme and icon setup I use mantis-theme and arc-icon-theme
If you dont want to use and install lxappearance you can create and modify these gtk configs accordingly.
~/.gtkrc-2.0
gtk-cursor-theme-name="Adwaita"
gtk-icon-theme-name="Adwaita"
gtk-theme-name="Adwaita"
gtk-font-name="Overpass 9"
gtk-button-images=0
gtk-menu-images=1
# vim: ft=cfg~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
[Settings]
gtk-cursor-theme-name=Adwaita
gtk-icon-theme-name=Adwaita
gtk-theme-name=Adwaita
gtk-font-name=Overpass 9
gtk-button-images=0
gtk-menu-images=1
# vim: ft=cfg
Hello Pavan, First of all I would like to thank you for providing your rice informations as you are one of the top 2bwm ricers I follow on Reddit.
Most ricers provide dotfiles for shell based programs but almost never for GTK, can I know how do you handle it? Also I'd like to know which laptop are you using and which GPU because myself on Arch + 2bwm am encountering some little bugs with double borders and firefox glitch with my Nvidia GForce GTK 1050.
Thnaks man :)
