Light theme: Trisquel-light theme + Trisquel-Mono-Light icons
Theme
- /usr/share/themes/Trisquel/ -- This is the default theme. It has dark background color on the Panel, and light background color on the window borders
- /usr/share/themes/Trisquel-dark/ -- it has dark background color on the Panel, and dark background color on the window borders
Trisquel Light (proposed)
/usr/share/themes/Trisquel-light/ -- suggested theme, with light background color on the window borders, and light background color on the Panel.
Get "Trisquel Light" listed in mate-appearance-properties
under the Theme tab.
# Create a Trisqel Light theme
cd /usr/share/themes/ || exit
sudo cp -a Trisquel Trisquel-light
cd Trisquel-light || exit
sudo cp -a ../Trisquel-dark/index.theme .
sudo sed -i "
s|Dark|Light|;
s|dark|light|;
" index.theme
mate-terminal
I propose light background colors in mate-terminal and other programs.
/usr/share/themes/Trisquel/gtk-3.0/gtk.css is symlinked to /usr/share/themes/Greybird/gtk-3.0/gtk.css that is containing:
/* mate-terminal */
vte-terminal { -TerminalWindow-background-darkness: 1.0; background-color: black; color: white; }
It can easily be modified:
sudo sed -i "
/vte-terminal/ s/black/backgroundreplace/;
/vte-terminal/ s/white/foregroundreplace/;
/vte-terminal/ s/backgroundreplace/#ffffdd/;
/vte-terminal/ s/foregroundreplace/black/;
" /usr/share/themes/Greybird/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
Icon theme
Two icon themes exist for Trisquel, both are designed for dark panel background colors:
- /usr/share/icons/trisquel-brave/ -- based on /usr/share/icons/gnome-brave/
- /usr/share/icons/trisquel-mono-dark/ -- partially based on /usr/share/icons/gnome-brave/ but not /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/
Trisquel-Mono-Light (proposed)
- /usr/share/icons/trisquel-mono-light/ -- based on /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-light/
- /usr/share/icons/trisquel/scalable/places/start-here.svg is a blue icon so it can be used for both Trisquel-Mono-Dark and Trisquel-Mono-Light
