WhiteSur-gtk-theme VS picom

Gnome Shell Theme: WhiteSur Theme with modified accent colors from the .css file where I changed the green color (had installed the green varient) with the baby blue/almost cyan color.

Then this is where you want to report it

If you like the aesthetics of MacOS, you could try Big Sur Theme. In the repo there are instructions on how to apply the theme into gtk3 and gtk4 apps and also on libadwaita apps.

I have written https://taoofmac.com for the last 20 years, and have spent the last year progressively using GNOME and Fedora more and more.

I use the WhiteSur GTK theme (https://github.com/vinceliuice/WhiteSur-gtk-theme) so that I don't have to decipher the nuances of the standard GNOME iconography (some of it is... well, not as pretty, and definitely not as intuitive).

I love this setup, but if GNOME decides to keep breaking user themes, I will have to look elsewhere (most likely a different Fedora spin, although definitely not KDE).

Thank you, I am looking for stylepak. Moreover I corrected the spelling error in the post! with "--flatpak" option I was referring to the Readme of the WhiteSur gtk theme, but actually looking into the install.sh there is no option for it.

Close to macOS is just the rice I use https://github.com/vinceliuice/WhiteSur-gtk-theme

picom is a widely adopted compositor that has (too) many forks and the one I use supports blurring, shadows, corners and transparency: https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom

I tried that fork as well. Had the same issues, went on to ibhagwan/picom fork which worked out great for me as you can see.. including fading animations atc if yr in to that.

I have picom-ibhagwan (https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom) installed via the xbps template for the rounded corners and dual kawase bliur. Everything was fine until I rebooted- and now I have no blur or rounded corners. I have no clue what gives. Any ideas?

git clone https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom cd picom meson --buildtype=release . build ninja -C build sudo ninja -C build install

I read in this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/i3wm/comments/p5o61d/picom_rounded_corner_blur/ that https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom has rounded corners + blur

I guess newer versions of picom supports the blur effect. I'm not sure though. Just a note you don't need to terminate the session for testing this. Just kill the running instance of picom and run picom again. This is how I run picom: picom --experimental-backends --backend glx --xrender-sync-fence and this is what I have for blur effects in my picom.conf file: blur: { # requires: https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom method = "kawase"; #method = "kernel"; strength = 17; deviation = 14; kernel = "11x11gaussian"; background = true; background-frame = true; background-fixed = true; kern = "3x3box"; }

Thank's, I create issue with a lot of info. I thinks problems like that is the often situation on nvidia gpu... https://github.com/ibhagwan/picom/issues/50
