[SOLVED] Budgie : where is the settings panel ?

jojoke13 · 2017-09-17 10:48:30

Hi everyone !
If there is any rule that i don't fully respect (or any advice that I should follow), please, tell me.

Context :
Yesterday, I installed Arch with Budgie-desktop. I have tried to install a different theme for Budgie.
I really liked the vertex themes, so I installed the vertex-themes package.
Usually, to apply the theme you have to open the "panel area" :

Problem:
I can't find how do you open it....
Is there a button for it ?
Maybe an ancient incantation ?

I don't know...

Thanks in advance,

jojoke13

Hey jojoke13

Welcome to our forums, please only provide links or thumbnails to images, you might also want to read: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … s_and_code

I don't use Bungie myself, but https://solus-project.com/articles/budgie/shortcuts/en/ mentions a Bungie Menu on Super (the Windows key on most keyboards) maybe that's where you'll find that?

Thanks for the advice.
I thought about it but at each time I use the windows key it opens the application menu, even if the alt shortcuts work...

oh, wait : could my gdm interfere with bindings for the budgie desktop ?

Ok, so this "panel" is called raven.
Usually it SHOULD be Super+N (= Windows key + N).
Super alone works (it opens the "Budgie" menu).
So basically, I don't know why raven doesn't work when I press the right keys....

You can open Raven by clicking at the applet to the top right of the panel, then you should press the gear in Raven and you should see the settings.If you are using the git version of Budgie from AUR then Budgie provides a standalone settings application instead.

I dont have that part of the applet :

Is it possible that I have installed budgie without raven !?

Hm, you are not using Budgie in the screenshots, you are using GNOME3. How do you start your DE? If you are using a Display Manager please make sure you are choosing Budgie.

Thanks : it was due to gdm : it's always opening gnome (even if you choose budgie desktop).
I installed lxdm. It's a little bit ugly but it's working !
