Improved themerc for Carnival-Black openbox theme

Gullible Jones · 2006-10-07 02:05:03

This is modified so the menus look prettier with default settings. Also uses font sizes a little smaller than the original for some stuff, and gets rid of font shadows, which IMHO look rather ugly; substitute your own fonts/settings as desired.

Cool, I mess around with it often, can't say the shadows bother me much on my black version (I have a few more colours for human and gperfection etc) but maybe i'll get rid of them anyway.

Nice menu too.

So, this fixes the menu (the lack of OpenBox 3 in the top menu bar)? I'll check it out later when I am on Arch.

No.. you have to compile openbox with the hidemenuheader (?) patch for that. I think someone on this forum hosts a repo with a package, perhaps smoon.

yankees26 · 2006-10-07 12:33:02

Are you sure? Because in other themes it is there.

Mr Green · 2006-10-07 13:16:53

hes sure... you need a smoon repo & grab obconf from there too....

yankees26 · 2006-10-07 13:29:29

Are you sure he is sure? Because I just changed my theme and it says OpenBox 3 at the top of the menu. But when I go back to Carnival-Black it doesn't say OpenBox 3 at the top (its just a black bar). And considering I just tried the new themerc, and the fact that with it, it does say OpenBox 3, I am going to say that you are both wrong.

Mr Green · 2006-10-07 13:43:37

ok

Gullible Jones · 2006-10-07 14:47:06

If the theme doesn't say anything specific about the menu header, then it will display the ugly black bar, unless you use the patch.

The altered themerc above specifies what the menu header is supposed to look like. Therefore, the patch is unneeded.
