Man, I'm out of it! What is the link on that one? I've used the other one for picking out which jwm and gtk theme to use (desktop manager); great work there too... but a GTK theme maker?! Man, you are with it!

I think you're not the only one asking about this...hmm, I was just about let the fully functional JWM the maker 1.3 alone :lol: , but seems like I will go further:
1. popup/tooltip background color (and text?)
2. tooltips for entries as infos about the usage

To be v 1.4

thanks for inputs

LOL, LOL, and maybe a selector for active/inactive desktop pager?
This program is much too important to leave alone :)

Thanks very much trio, you could as well ust apply some of active/inactive colors already choosen in other fields if you didn't want to add new buttons, I see that pager is already changed this way, just missed the popups, they stayed the same always.

Daves,

Desktop pager already changes according to other colors

Dejan,

I already made the options, It's better to seperate it than following other colors, it's supposed to be "differently shocking color" as it is pop-up info box

Thanks guys, wonder why you guys not too interrested in GTK Theme Maker?

I will get to GTK Theme Maker in a while T. Just not enough hours in the day. Also, the standard JWM themes are horrible, but Stardust and DeepThought are nice, so not so much urgency.

I don't really change gtk themes that much and I can't manage to make one that really fits for everyday use. I see you made lots of templates there, gonna try them when I can. Oh, gonna add link to puppy look site today, haven't time to work on it lately.

Hi trio, I finally got around to trying this application and well it works excellent great job on it!!!
Its almost perfect, what I would like to see is that it could reopen a saved themes that you previously made, maybe a numbering system so it knows which themes were made with the theme maker and which weren't.

Now with the addition of this theme maker, changing fonts is crazy-easy.

But here is something to try: add your own handwriting as a font.

It looks extremely cool, if you like your handwriting at all. Here's what to do: go to fontifier and follow the instructions. It takes about 10 minutes and will cost about $10. Then you'll have a ttf of your writing.

Then add it to your fonts file.

Then when you run the theme maker you just pick the font you made.

In fontforge..

Save your handwriting as a gif. Fontforge can open those. Trace it! Remember, 1 way then the reverse way or else your 'o' s and such will be solid! Look in ttuuxxx' .ca or .asia repo for fontforge or look in eyecandy>>fonts for a link I posted :wink:

Bonjour,
Could somebody give the exact explanation of the words in the configuration file 'Jwm_colors' below :

Code: Select all

#see /usr/local/jwmconfig2/theme-switcher script.
MENU_BG='#xxxxxx'
ACTIVE_BG='#xxxxxx'
FOREGROUND='#xxxxxx'
PAGER_BG='#xxxxxx'
FG_SELECTED='#xxxxxx'
MENU_BG (is it the equivalent of <MenuStyle>...<Background>... of the file jwmrc-theme ?)
ACTIVE_BG (active background of what ?)
FOREGROUND (foreground of what ?)
PAGER_BG (is it the equivalent of <PagerStyle>...<Background>... of the file jwmrc-theme ?)
FG_SELECTED (foreground of what ?)

Thanks a lot, even it is not the best place to ask this question... :oops:

Please, ¿Would you like provide a source tarball, for compilating? I need the source for compiling a RPM package fo openSUSE 11.1.
