Hi,

I'm unable to install the Numix Solarized GTK Theme under Fedora 27 due to the following error:

glib-compile-resources --sourcedir=src/gtk-3.0 src/gtk-3.0/gtk.gresource.xml
src/gtk-3.0/gtk.gresource.xml: Failed to locate “assets/checkbox-checked-dark.png” in any source directory.
make: *** [Makefile:31: gresource] Error 1

All the required packages are installed (based on README.md instructions).

Currently the extra WM themes for xfce, metacity, openbox and unity are not changed at all. This means that this theme will probably look pretty ugly with these window managers.

The fix is probably very easy, but takes time and I don't have the WMs in question installed at the moment.

Progress:

• Take screenshots of current (broken) state
• Recolor icons
  • xfce
  • metacity
  • openbox
  • unity
• Test changes

I just started using Openbox, and the window manager themes render out as the base Numix theme without any of the solarized parts.

I ran the PKGBUILD after the last pull request, so it should run if it was going to, but I can also run it under OB to see what happens.

When using Inkscape 1.0, Inkscape prints the following error message while running render-assets.sh.

Unknown option --export-png=src/assets/menuitem-checkbox-checked-insensitive.png

Rendering works with Inkscape 0.92.5.

I just saw this and thought about this repo. It might lighten the load a bit of having to build and test for a bunch of window managers.

Inkscape needs to be installed otherwise the Makefile target "assets" fails, because the render-assets script makes use of Inkscape.
This results in an error similar to this numixproject#582.

tl;dr: See what I mean on this picture on the nautilus window with the Dark top.

The original numix solarized theme by bitterologist includes a theme simply called "Solarized" that is a mixed of the "Dark/Light Blue" themes that you've made here. I personally prefer the mix of dark headers and light background that it has. Would it be possible to add such an option to this project?

I've attempted to do it myself, but I can't compile the project as it spits an error: Failed to locate 'assets/checkbox-checked-dark.png' in any source directory.

The bitterologist themes are outdated and have issues with small text zones and missing checkboxes, so it's not very useable.

Thank you very much for considering it or helping me compiling my own version!

PS: I also noticed that the red color from numix is still used for the windows buttons (close/minimize/maximize) under Ubuntu 17.10 using your latest release, strangely enough it does that only on the "big" windows buttons, not on the small ones that are on some apps like nautilus/settings.

This is an amazing theme!

Hi there, I see a lot of warning after system upgrade:

Theme parsing error: gtk-dark.css:9381:21: Not using units is deprecated. Assuming 'px'.

I think some styles need to be updated to include px where it's meant. Thank you!

A screenshot or two in the README would be immensly helpful for people who are interested in using this theme.

In the original Numix theme difference in menu & window background is way much bigger than in this theme. Because of that it might be not a good idea to use menu without border as it done in the Numix theme.
I'm not sure whether any one might be interested but I made a thin menu border by this commit:
marojenka@141a871

Steps to reproduce: Choose any of the dark themes, open up a GTK3 application in XFCE.

I would suggest maybe changing the default appearance of the scrollbar to better match the GTK2 scrollbar, which is perfectly visible at all times.

This is not an issue with this nice theme, but how to make terminal tabs to have light colors for lighter themes? I have tried xfce4-terminal, gnome-terminal/mate-terminal, roxterm. All have dark colors tabs. Thunar and other application's tabs, on the otherhand, are lighter.

As discussed on the AUR package for this theme, I plan on adding blue-accented alternate themes for the users of the previous version, which had a blue accent color.

This means adding a whole bunch of infrastructure for adding colorswapped themes.

Changes due to infrastructure:

• Merging from numix upstream (hopefully) becomes easier
• A quick glance at the colorswapping files makes it possible to see the whole theme
• The Makefile is gonna get more complicated
• I'm gonna need time before I can start this. Letting this lie around unfinished probably means ages without merging upstream, making merging extra hard

If the $SHELL variable is not set in the Makefile, it is set to /bin/sh by make. On Debian, /bin/sh is linked to dash, which causes issues since the project's Makefile uses bashisms.

OS: Solus 1.2.1 https://solus-project.com/
Desktop: Budgie
GTK version: GTK 3.20.9
Using theme version: NumixSolarized-20160919.tar.gz

I'm not sure if the gtk2 theming hasn't been implemented yet or if there's a bug (maybe me) but apps that use other toolkits seem to fall back on that really ugly default.

As far as I understand, we do not have any control on the icon sizes since GTK 3.10 (now on GTK 3.24).

I cannot figure out how to make my icons larger. Also, I wonder why the submenu has a dark background when it should be light. All the Numix solarized light variants seem to have this issue.

Any idea how to fix this issue?

The icons of in the dark theme use black check boxes like the original Numix theme. This color does not completely fit the Solarized theme.

Progress:

• Find new color to use
• Update icons to use new color

Both first and last releases of theme don't work properly on Unity and Ubuntu 16.04. Installed them manually following instructions. Reinstalled few times and still got the same result:

I figured I'd fork this and build it myself since the last update (apparently) made it so gobsmackingly simple to add in new colors.

It looks like all that would be needed is to edit all of the light and dark base theme .color files and replace the existing colors with the rest, change the name to the color, commit, and then we have the solarized rainbow, right?

EDIT: Pull request merged, my goal is complete.

Dark theme applied to Thunar results in white text shown on top of white background:

Note that the light theme works fine:

Thunar uses GTK 2. I can actually easily reproduce the problem with gtk-demo:

It would be nice to see a cinnamon theme for this one. Currently no matching theme is available, so my desktop is bound to look inconsistent if I'm gonna use NumixSolarized.

Hi,
I just installed the theme on Ubuntu 16.04 with Unity and noticed that the window buttons, i.e., close, minimize, etc., are white for both the dark and the light theme.
For the dark theme that is fine, but for the light theme it is not really possible to see the buttons on the light solarized background.
Is there a way to change the color?
Thank you
