Image files are not required to theme pekwm. You can replace the image file name in the theme with a texture and color; and I believe pekwm accepts color gradients
An ugly scrot just for show; note the color change in the theme file:

Their documentation is admitedly cryptic; there use to be a really good tutorial for configuring pekwm online. It may still be available. Includes all the theme options and some examples. If you hunt around box-look.org and deviantArt you can fine some pekwm themes that do not use image files.

@hhh - nice looking theme in the works.

This is good to see! The copy and paste marathon wasn't gonna be a thing.

Could you please provide me an example of what/how you are changing in the theme? Not really understanding from the docs.

bspwm Looks interesting too! Guess I'm on a wm binge.

@PR, thanks. You're bspwm looks sick!

I have to tweak the Openbox and xfce4-notification themes before I upload it, sorry for the tease.

Outstanding:) Has a nice feel to it.

Thanks! I love the default Lithium theme with the default wallpaper, but it's too blue with a lot of other walls. This one is only slightly arc-blue. I'll do a few with different highlight colors to match Papirus colors, sold...

Been a while since I've used pekwm, but just get yourself a theme - this is a good one and experiment with it. Anywhere there is a image file, you can substitute in a texture and color. For example, in the pekwm theme file "Tab" is the titlebar (pekwm is a tabbing window manager like fluxbox) so you can edit this stanza:

	Tab {
		Focused = "Image title.png"
		FocusedSelected = "Image title.png"
		Unfocused = "Image title.png"
		UnfocusedSelected = "Image title.png"
		}

to look like this:

	Tab {
		Focused = "Solid #964923"
		FocusedSelected = "Solid #E56E34"
		Unfocused = "Solid #111111"
		UnfocusedSelected = "Solid #E56E34"
		}

and the titlebars will be colored and change color when selecting - by default pekwm is focus follows mouse/sloppy focus; that can be changed to click-to-focus.

Best thing to do is get a theme and just make obvious changes - like bright red - where there are image files to see how the decor changes. Then you'll have a grasp of the theme elements.

I Like it! You have a good grasp of this.

My theme is waay too blue. Have to find only certain pics.

Just now learning some of the way the css file works. Mind blowing number of combinations. Still have a bunch of small problems to iron out.

Are there cheat tools for this? Any tools? I just have my own notes to go off.

It looks like the objective is to get as close to neutral while still displaying the colors, so different wallpapers don't cause problems.

Thought I would try a sort of clay color at some point.

Yes, once you get one set up, it's a template for the rest. That documentation has the various textures like "Solidraised".

Looking OK on Openbox...

@PackRat, here's the gtk-2.0 gtkrc file...

gtk-color-scheme = "base_color: #333742"
gtk-color-scheme = "text_color: #d3dae3"
gtk-color-scheme = "bg_color: #2e313b"
gtk-color-scheme = "fg_color: #d3dae3"
gtk-color-scheme = "tooltip_bg_color: #333742"
gtk-color-scheme = "tooltip_fg_color: #d3dae3"
gtk-color-scheme = "selected_bg_color: #3D4780"
gtk-color-scheme = "selected_fg_color: #ffffff"
gtk-color-scheme = "insensitive_bg_color: #575b65"
gtk-color-scheme = "insensitive_fg_color: #a9afb9"
gtk-color-scheme = "notebook_bg: #333742"
gtk-color-scheme = "dark_sidebar_bg: #2e313b"
gtk-color-scheme = "link_color: #3D4780"
gtk-color-scheme = "menu_bg: #333742"

gtk-icon-sizes = "gtk-button=16,16" # This makes button icons smaller.
gtk-auto-mnemonics = 1
gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = 1

include "main.rc"
#include "apps.rc"
#include "panel.rc"
#include "xfce-notify.rc"
#include "menubar-toolbar/menubar-toolbar-dark.rc"

selected_bg_color: #3D4780

hhh · 2021-01-22 06:08:12

Done.

-edit- Using xfce4-panel because I am not going to theme the goddamn tint2 tooltips every time I change themes.

^ Ahem. That's a juggling reference and not, you know...

Scrotum.

Right, so get it going on Openbox. Indigo...

sleekmason · 2021-01-23 20:12:47

Jwm, Set up basically the same as my openbox setup for now.

Jwm is a really nice window manager. Very similar to Openbox in feel, with panel similarities to tint2.

There is only one configuration file for Jwm. Everything goes into it. Startup, menus, and a huge amount of easy customizations once you figure out the config file.

Runs extremely lean, Less than 200MB with a custom kernel here, so . . about 230MB until 5.8 comes out.

I will certainly be adding this to my own builds fairly soon (hopefully). Still a few items to adjust.

The wallpaper is a picture of the windshield from an old truck left next to a creek. Have to drop about '2000' from the road over the course of a mile or so to get to it. One of our favorite camping spots of years past.

* Edit - in the minimal build here: https://github.com/sleekmason/Liliflux
