awesome-wm-nice VS LightlyShaders

for a few days now I've been trying to get Nice to work on awesome as it's supposed to. Whenever I get to this instruction and change my rc.lua file it just makes the titlebars empty and transparent.

As far as I know, double borders can be achieved with four title bars, one for each side. This is how it is done in the nice module (the screenshot above). This post and this GitHub issue also mention this solution.

Now I know this is possible in AwesomeWM (https://github.com/mut-ex/awesome-wm-nice), but I want to use KDE. Thank you in advance.

It's been a while since I switched over to nice for handling title bars, but iirc, the title bars are just widgets. Each side is a wibox, which supports everything wibox does. In that sense, you can simply set a height property if I'm not mistaken.

Here is a project with advanced use of titlebar. If I get it, you want to do something similar, so you can take a look at it, I guess https://github.com/mut-ex/awesome-wm-nice

There is a fork of LightlyShaders at https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders which sort of works on Wayland from git master but not as well as it used to on previous KWin versions.

Not so straightforward setup but here you go: - Plasma theme: Modified lightly-plasma - Application theme: this fork of Lightly - Window decoration: Klassy - Window rounded corners: (LightlyShaders KWin effect)[https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders/] - Wallpaper - Plasma and everything else colors: kde-material-you-colors

This is the best fork I think https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders

Well there are things like https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders which come close.

Check out https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders Currently using the v2.0 branch of that desktop effect in combination with https://github.com/kupiqu/SierraBreezeEnhanced and here is how my desktop looks right now: https://imgur.com/a/Mb52FkL

I use this Desktop Effect (Lightlyshader) for my rounded corners, the only problem is, it does not play nice with many other Desktop effects(Wobbly, Magic Lamp, etc), so test it and see what break or doesn't.

You may want to give LightlyShaders KWin effect a try and see how it compares to kde-rounded-corners effect.

how is it different from: https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders

I was using https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders for rounded corners and it appears to have stopped working after the update. Can anyone confirm or is it just for me?
