Hi all. Papirus recommend use Arc Dark for better loooking. But my favorite GTK Theme Arc not development anymore :( See last commit created 12 May: https://github.com/horst3180/arc-theme/commits/master
Maybe anybody fork this perfect theme and update for new GTK? Or maybe another ideas?
Soon Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and this theme most likely will not work. Firefox Arc no longer works now with new version...

I hate GTK and GNOME!!! Fucking devs always broken compatibility with every new release.
Now i'm migrate to KDE again and happy, because Qt not have this problem. All worked fine with Arc KDE + Arc GTK, but i think for GTK3-apps soon there will be problems :(

Maybe you can try Greybird

GTK3 (3.22) is in maintenance mode actually. There won't be any API breakages.
GTK4 though will be another pair of shoes.

Do you know Adapta?
It is being maintained towards GTK4.

Flat-Plat and Pop are other active themes.

Flat-Plat & Adapta very cool themes, but if adapt Papirus for this themes, we have broken Arc KDE :(
Better solution for us - it's fork Arc Themes

You should try Pop theme

Pop it's fork Flat-Plat. But you not understand me. We create more themes/skins for Arc KDE. If we adap icon theme for Flat-Plat/Adapta/Pop we must create tools for KDE... It's hard and long work:

Aurorae Themes
Konsole Color Schemes
Konversation Themes
Kvantum Themes
Plasma Color Schemes
Plasma Desktop Themes
Plasma Look-and-Feel Settings
Yakuake Skins
Extra tools (Telegram)

Also i don't know possible create Plasma theme with Adapta style.... for Kvantum now WIP Adapta version by @tsujan

@tsujan What decoration you use for Adapta on KDE? Breeze have light line on the sides

tsujan commented Sep 3, 2017

You mean KvAdapta (which I made recently)? I use it under LXQt with Compiz+Emerald -- made an Emerald theme for it -- but under KDE or with kwin, an Aurorae theme can be made for it. Unfortunately, with the current direction of Plasma5 (QML and its related stuff), the future of Aurorae isn't secure, so I don't include any Aurorae theme in Kvantum.

@tsujan Thx for explanations.

Aurorae isn't secure

It's mean Aurorae will not be support on future releases on KDE upstream or only isn't secure?

@tsujan

tsujan commented Sep 3, 2017

I meant Aurorae might not be supported in future; otherwise, it's completely secure. Actually, it's the best KDE decoration ever.

Yes it is. Worse than that is QML's invasion. That's why I use KDE only for testing Kvantum (and my other programs) under it.

BTW, this is Dolphin with KvAdapta and an Emerald decoration (under LXQt):

kvadapta

Any Aurorae decoration would look better without borders (because of the dark toolbar).

Yes, with 1px border ))

BTW, I completely agree with you about Gnome (as you said on this page). I was a happy gnome2 user and programmed in GTK. When Gnome3 came out, I tolerated it until v3.4 but, after that, enough was enough. I migrated to KDE and started programming in Qt. Qt was far better than GTK but had a drawback: its themes were too elementary. Therefore, I started to make Kvantum ;)

But now my plasma desktop looking cool... i like arc colors and global menu on KDE (not worked for some GTK apps)

And I do not know it is worth create Adapta for plasma and possible this or not (because Adapta use dark panel, but light popup menu)

Yes, with that dark toolbar, an Adapta Plasma theme may not be really like Adapta.

If anybody find dark panel and light menu widgets with dark color icons, please tell me.
I think it's impossible, because KDE not have class for pop-up menu background and buttons/icons - used colors from main plasma window

Darker themes for plasma not possible (dark panel and light popup menu)!
Only dark to dark or light to light:

tsujan commented Sep 7, 2017

Although I don't use KDE, I had a small suggestion. If you make a Plasma theme for KvAdapta, it's better to reduce the text opacity a little and set it to 100% only on mouse-over. I really don't remember if that's possible with Plasma themes but the reason is that white texts will have a sort of "anti-aliasing" on very dark backgrounds if their opacity is < 100%.

Wow! Plasma5 is so poor in settings :( I guess that's because of QML.

tsujan commented Sep 7, 2017

I checked with LXQt panel right now and saw it accepted foreground colors like rgba(255,255,255,60%) -- I don't say anything about the possibility of different colors for different plugins. IMHO, this should be reported to KDE devs as a bug and not just as a feature request -- we aren't in 1980's, after all. I would report it if I was an active Plasma user.

@SmartFinn Я там папки еще скопировал из папируса, так как основной цвет заменен. Умней ниче не придумал. Знаю, что можно симлинки пробросить, но блин там их дофигища

@varlesh такой подход конечно не годится. Я уже все написал для агрегации цветных папок, скоро бранч https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme/tree/color-folders смержу и утилиту выложу. Пока не заморичайся, я потом issue создам и все поправим.

@SmartFinn Сереж, привет. Слушай, а в Adapta какой цвет юзается для значков панели? Глянь плиз в гноме или юнити (хотя оно уже дисконтинуед и наверн лучше под гном подстраиваться). Я гугли прост, нефига толком чет не нашел.
gtk3-widget-factory показывает цвет значка #a5afb4 или #a3acb1 а текст #cfd8dc.
Я короче запутался опять

@SmartFinn Ага, спасибо. Для панели определились вроде...
но там опять светофор... бляха
Смари,в окне символьные значки вообще юзают #5a6368 а в наутилусе вообще #81898c

Итого, мы имеем 3 цвета:

  • в контекстном меню панели #5c6569
  • левый сайдбар наутилуса #81898c
  • окно настроек #5a6368
    И че юзать-то?

@varlesh на то они и символичесие чтобы подстраивались. #5a6368 лучше всего подходит.
