What do you think of these Tint2's for Helium? They match the Beam themes, and include some gradient and separators.
tint2rc config is here: Scripts, Tutorials & Tips - My tint2 config

The gradient seems to be coded. Why not use transparency?

Personally, I prefer black or light grey panels, like in old versions of that OS, these days. Better for reading or working with it for longer periods. However, there was a time I enjoyed clear, transparent panels and whatnot. Anyway, can't please everybody. People are sure to continue using their own configs if that suits them better.

??? The gradients require to be coded, and transparency is being used.

The dark BL/!# tint2rc is virtually invisible on a dark wallpaper, and is likely to cause confusion for a new user: that is why I would like to see something a little brighter. The gradient is really to show off new features in tint2, and give some idea for configuration possibilities.

It is likely we will also ship something similar to the old flat-panel style, for the traditionalists here!

Damo that tint2 looks great, really shows off its ability using the updated version.

Ah. Yeah I mean, they look nice. I particularly like the clock better than the original one in #!. But I'm not up to date with tint development (nor any other atm) . Pretty much just using computers now instead of twiddling with them.

EDIT: changed scrot to show LaTeX autodetection & syntax highlighting, I really like this editor

^ That "DE: XFCE" always irritates me if there is no DE! I sorted it by adding *) de="None";;

    case "$de" in
        "KDE_SESSION_VERSION"*) de="KDE${de/* = }" ;;
        *"TDE_FULL_SESSION"*) de="Trinity" ;;
        *"MUFFIN"* | "Cinnamon") de="$(cinnamon --version)"; de="${de:-Cinnamon}" ;;
        *"xfce4"*) de="XFCE4" ;;
        *"xfce5"*) de="XFCE5" ;;
	*) de="None";;
    esac

This is in neofetch, but it works the same in screenfetch:

Trying it out now - thanks for packaging it. I have a few queries, but I'll start a new topic.

@Damo That tint2 looks great imo. It's got a nice polish highlighting the features of tint2. I'm wondering whether the systray is transparent or not. I'm not using separators but the one besides the clock looks ok.

Thanks

Apart from the taskbar and tasks, the elements are transparent ( _background_id = 0)

Helium-dev, Beam theme, with a new conky based on this one by @Sun For Miles (ported to Conky v1.10, major tweaks). Conky_Seamod just keeps evolving

Conky files here

My lesser-spotted Alpine Linux system running dwm/dmenu/st with tmux, mksh & neofetch:

Looks like it still has the grsecurity kernel patches (de-branded, of course), which is nice 8)

PackRat · 2017-07-12 18:09:47

^ Nice. I wish I had the time to give Alpine a proper run.

Using buttons instead of launchers on tint2 panel -

On a roll this week

Revived my electro-Conky, and updated it to v1.10.
For the wallpaper see the dA link in my sig.

WOW, @damo, with this composition the language left me.
Class!
This desktop is not to work.

Steve · 2017-07-13 13:07:53

Nice work indeed damo. Can i ask what the icon theme is that you are using please?

Steve · 2017-07-13 13:48:44

Trying to emulate damos efforts here with tint2, wallpaper, icon theme. I really like the overall look, very catchy. I think the icon theme is "paper" from here https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1099618/ or maybe another variant?
