Description:

These themes started as a project to create a colourful, GTK3-compatible theme set reminiscent of Shiki-Colors. Since I have no real GTK2 or GTK3 theme design or creation experience, I borrowed a well-designed theme I had been using since I started using GNOME 3, Zukitwo-Dark, and tweaked it until it resembled Shiki-Colors while retaining the Zukitwo look and feel.

This theme set contains GTK2, GTK3, GNOME Shell and Cinnamon themes in all 7 colours from Shiki-Colors (Brave, Dust, Human, Illustrious, Noble, Wine and Wise), as well as colour-neutral GNOME Shell and Cinnamon themes (Zukitwo-Colors) and Metacity/Mutter and XFWM themes for Dust (Zukitwo-Dust) and the rest (Zukitwo-Colors). (Zukitwo-Dust has separate Metacity/Mutter and XFWM themes as part of its colour-scheme.)

I recommend using the GNOME-Colors icons themes with this theme set, since these themes were created with the intention of being a GTK3-compatible alternative to Shiki-Colors, and fit very well with the corresponding icon themes.

NOTE: The GTK3 and GNOME Shell themes require GNOME/GTK 3.4 and Unico 1.0.2 to work correctly. These themes will not work correctly with GNOME/GTK 3.6 and will not be updated to work with them, due to GTK 3.6 requiring image assets for styling many elements.

 Solving XFCE panel applet bugs

 
 by tortugo on: Jun 5 2012
 
Score 50%

I have solved the top panel applet bug adding the line

bg[NORMAL] = @menu_color

To style "theme-panel" on panel.rc file.

BEFORE: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=32682
AFTER: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=32749

I need to know what kind of widget is the "free disk space" to try to change the appearance.

Can someone help me?

 Update broken panel colours

I have just downloaded the latest theme archive and it has made the window buttons and panel icons have a white background when hovering over or selecting, where it used to be nice and dark matching the theme. Screenshot - http://i.imgur.com/XEz4K.png
I wish I'd backed up the older theme. Do you have it anywhere to download?
Thanks.

Unfortunately I do not keep backups of the older versions of my themes, but I think I can give you a quick fix for the panel buttons.

If you go to the themes' gtk-2.0/widgets folder and edit panel.rc (you'll need root permissions to do so), remove the 'engine "murrine"' section at the end of the 'theme-panel' style definition (I suspect it overrides the pixmap engine stuff, where the panel button images are set), you should regain your nicer looking panel buttons.

I plan on looking into the panel-related stuff in the near future, I've gotten many comments that indicate that many things need fixing and I suspect I might be able to do something about it if I look through (and possibly borrow) code from older, more mature GTK2 themes. The original Zukitwo themes (which I've derived mine from) also suffer the same issues so I may pass my work back to the original themes' author if I manage to successfully fix things.

Thanks for the reply. Hmm, I have the newer Zukitwo-Dark also and that doesn't have the same problem, at least not on my arch/xfce install. I will give you fix a go, but if all else fails I have just been able to grab an older version off my clonezilla backup...
cheers

The panel-related "fix" I implemented was my own, not from Zukitwo-Dark. It's unfortunate it had such a negative side-effect, but I do not currently have XFCE or any other GTK2-based desktop environment to test my attempted fixes in should something I fix possibly break something else.

I did quickly test the fix I suggested to ensure it would not break what I intended to fix (it does not), it should allow the pixmap engine to define the images to use for the panel buttons as it originally did.

It works perfectly, excellent work!
Now if only I could have notifications display correctly without using compositing or disabling the line "bg_pixmap[NORMAL] = "/Panel/panel-bg.png" # Disable for normal panel backgrounds." in panel.rc", which then breaks the panel icon bg colours. I know there is a fix for the bg panel icons (bg[NORMAL] = @menu_color) which makes it darker but does not match the panel background. I'll do without notifications for now. Keep up the good work.

I suspect the original author's insistence on using images for the panel buttons causes a lot of problem with the appearance of many applets, due to the lack of defined images for *everything*. I'm hoping that it will be possible to use both the murrine engine and the pixmap engine, so everything gets styled by murrine, then the panel buttons get overridden with the images defined by the pixmap engine.

I'm going to be busy tonight tinkering in XFCE (newly installed as a testing bed for GTK2-related work) and see if I can't get things playing along more nicely. I suspect I may be in for a lot of work...

nice update, but do you think this can ever be fixed when using the panel background?

I'm honestly not sure, in the most recent update I commented out the notification styling because I wasn't particularly happy with how it looked, that may be why it pulls in the panel background when one is set... However, during my testing I did not see this happen (or I'd have probably left it styled...). Are you setting the panel background manually or letting the theme set it itself..? I uncommented the panel background line in the config file so it will use the background by default, which may be why I didn't see this issue when I was testing the changes I was making...

I could actually use some in-depth documentation on the various widget and class IDs used by the GTK2 environments' panels, honestly. It seems if I do something to make one thing look right it breaks another, and everything in the panel.rc seems to be rather broad and generalized about what it styles... (There are a *lot* of wildcard characters being used...)

This latest update has fixed the issue. I can't be sure but the panel looks a bit darker, maybe my eyes deceiving me. In earlier versions the notifications looked 'bad' when I set the panel bg, as setting it as 'theme' just gave me a white-ish panel bg. anyway it's fixed now so, nice job.

 Update to 3.6

Would you update the themes for Gnome 3.6?

Don't know what the developers do that every update break nearly every theme.

I put a note in the description saying I don't plan on updating these themes or my other ones, the dependence on image assets for styling many of he widgets is, unfortunately, too much work for me right now. Between these 7 themes, the 7 from Shiki-Nouveau, the three from Zukitwo-Primary-Colors, and Mint-Z Improved, I have three different widget styling files that would need updating (though I *might* be able to get away with borrowing Zukitwo's and modifying it as necessary...) and 18 different batches of images I would need to make (though, at least for the Zukitwo- themes and Mint-Z Improved I could probably again borrow those from Zukitwo and modify as necessary... Shiki-Nouveau I would need to make new assets for to keep the look the same...)

In the end I just don't think it's worth the hassle, there's always a chance down the road that GNOME sill change something *again* that breaks compatibility of 3.6 themes with 3.8, and then I'd just be in the same spot I am now.

(Also, for what it's worth, the fault may actually lie with the Unico engine developers, they removed a huge chunk of what Unico used to be able to do as far as CSS-based styling goes. They may have had to do that to make the engine work with GTK 3.6, though, so it could still somewhat be GNOME's fault...)
