silverhammermba could you tell me how to use this png as wibox background?? and Aelspire, if you could tell me how to add icons hehehe

Aelspire · 2015-04-22 14:23:49

sasosito: use this freedesktop (put it in your ~/.config/awesome/ ): http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fi … 2471981730 (little modified by me. I made it works for me but I have no idea how it will work for you)

and add to something like this your rc.lua:

--FreeDesktop
local freedesktop = require('freedesktop')
freedesktop.utils.icon_theme = 'breeze'

-- applications menu
freedesktop.utils.terminal = terminal -- default: "xterm"

menu_items = freedesktop.menu.new()

myawesomemenu = {
   { "manual", terminal .. " -e man awesome", freedesktop.utils.lookup_icon({ icon = 'help-about' }) },
   { "edit config", editor_cmd .. " " .. awful.util.getdir("config") .. "/rc.lua", freedesktop.utils.lookup_icon({ icon = 'preferences-desktop' }) },
   { "restart", awesome.restart, freedesktop.utils.lookup_icon({ icon = 'system-reboot' }) },
   { "quit", awesome.quit, freedesktop.utils.lookup_icon({ icon = 'application-exit' }) }
}

table.insert(menu_items, { "awesome", myawesomemenu, beautiful.awesome_icon })
table.insert(menu_items, { "shoutdown", function() awful.util.spawn_with_shell("oblogout") end, freedesktop.utils.lookup_icon({icon = 'system-shutdown'}) })
table.insert(menu_items, { "open terminal", terminal, freedesktop.utils.lookup_icon({icon = 'utilities-terminal'}) })

mymainmenu = awful.menu({ items = menu_items })

mylauncher = awful.widget.launcher({ image = beautiful.awesome_icon, menu = mymainmenu })

-- desktop icons

freedesktop.desktop.config.computer = false -- to disabble computer icon
freedesktop.desktop.config.home = false -- to disabble home icon
freedesktop.desktop.config.network = false -- to disabble network icon
freedesktop.desktop.config.trash = false -- to disabble trash icon

for s = 1, screen.count() do
      freedesktop.desktop.add_desktop_icons({dir = '~/Pulpit/', screen = s, showlabels = true,
      open_with = 'dolphin' })
end

mylauncher = awful.widget.launcher({ image = beautiful.awesome_icon,
                                     menu = mymainmenu })

You probably will have to change icon names and theme

Thank you very much

sasosito · 2015-04-23 20:59:17

My new desktop! I tried elementary Freya for a month or so, mainly because pantheon DE (gala in particular shocks me), but I missed Arch + awesome.
Terminus font for all, solarized colors with "custom" background (#211d21). Layout icons are from powerarrow-darker, copycats, but made my own for uselessfair. Awesompd for mpd and a nice Wallpaper hahaha
I tried to put icons in the menu, but I couldn't, and when I find out how to make wibox use a png file as background will be back tweaking hahaha

Gtk: Greybird
Icons: Moka

Clean:

Dirty:

This is what my knowledge of lua and awesome have brought me too ... trying to learn new things or ways of writing nicer awesome wm themes ... any thoughts from folks of good places to learn better coding to spice up my wm?

--editing for grammar--

This time, I wrote a more complex theme. This is to fight back against flat design I grew tired of. Lots of shadow, gradients and 3D effects. Code link in my signature

hey Elv13 I am having issues setting up arrow themes gotta say they look nice on yours but I cannot get theme to work after cloning your repo into .config/awesome/blind

is there something else i have to do besides of course calling the themeSciFiGrad.lua in my rc.lua?

Getting todays background image (sometimes redundant with previous days, rss standards yay)

Aelspire · 2015-05-27 12:23:58

Last changes, "trickiest" thing is taglist. Set empty foreground to same colour as wibox, so if tag is empty, it is invisible. Still want to make some things, but for now it may remain like this. Terminus font, molokai color scheme.

Sorry, I totally forgot about this thread. The theme work if you clone my config. It use the "Radical" module for most widgets, so it doesn't work with the vanilla tasklist and taglist,

Serge2702 · 2015-07-03 00:19:20

@angvp: The config is this one: http://dotshare.it/dots/1032/

@Serge2702: I like the red tone, simple but nice.

Check out mine https://github.com/ThePinkPanther/MinimalAwesome. A very elegant and minimalistic config. Easily changed throug settings.lua file.

Reunited with arch and awesome and it feels so good

Just used some old config I had backed up, pretty sure I stole most of it from somebody here.

Back again, some minor changes, cleaned everything up a bit. Tamsyn font, Bruvox vim colors and smear colorscheme; the wallpaper was taken from this pack.

Clean

Dirty

Isn't it hard for you to read?? It is too dark for me hahaha

VanillaFunk · 2015-07-31 01:24:38

Not to dark for me ... but i like dark dark themes. i like yours as well does good on the bright background. DId you write the terminal theme yourself?

What are you refering exactly? For the bash profile (I'm not sure if it is called like this) I used this page, and the color scheme is linked on my post I'm glad you like it

VanillaFunk · 2015-07-31 21:10:34

yea it was the color theme i was refering too ... i write some gtk themes and am in process of making awesome / terminal color schemes to match the ones i had created ... It's one of the few places I can give back to the community with my skill set so I am always happy to look at themes and usually comment on them cause I know how much goes into making em

sasosito · 2015-08-01 18:40:07

@VanillaFunk, I tried your themes, way too dark for me, but some cool themes though

mcicak · 2015-08-03 15:51:54

I did it clean&simple.
