Hi all, Bellow i paste this email i sent Thu, 28 Jul 2016 to ask you for your opinion. It got nested in another thread, so i break it lose to make sure everyone sees it.
( https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-studio-devel/2016-July/007973.html ) Since feature freeze is around the corner, if no one objects before Sunday 7th august, i will proceed and do the changes from greybird to numix as default theme with ubuntu studio blue as highligt color, and switch from murrine to shimmer as xubuntu have done. Yours, Set -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [ubuntu-studio-devel] Shimmer and numix (was: unmet dependencies) Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2016 13:48:33 +0200 From: Set Hallstrom <s...@ubuntustudio.org> Reply-To: Ubuntu Studio Development <ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com> Organization: Ubuntu Studio To: ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com [snip] I've been looking into the theme thing with krytarik. As is now, we ship ubuntu studio with greybird as default theme. Last time we discussed the theme/look of the desktop, i want to remember many of us agreed on finding a darker theme. http://packages.ubuntu.com/yakkety/murrine-themes http://packages.ubuntu.com/yakkety/shimmer-themes Both Murrine and Shimmer have greybird (our default theme atm). But shimmer is shipped with Numix. And Numix is a pretty excellent theme. The cons as i see them for Numix are these: - The way focused windows differentiate themselves from other (same as greybird) - The very thin window border makes it hard to catch the corners to resize (same as gryebird) The pros: - It hear it is well maintained, like gerybird. - While it is dark, unlike most dark-themes you never get problems with webpage searchboxes displaying white text on white background. The default highlight color of numix is red, but krytarik found a fix from xubuntu unicorn to address this and let us have ubuntustudio blue instead. So, if i sound like i am pushing for a shift from murrine to shimmer and for shipping 16.10 with numix as default theme and window header, you got me alright. :D But of course, we need to agree on it first. What are your thoughts, team? Yours, -- Set Hallstrom aka sakrecoer
