Summary
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
* Do not edit the CSS directly, edit the source SCSS files and process them with SASS (run
|
||||
`/.parse-sass.sh` when you have the required sofwtare installed, as described below)
|
||||
* To be able to use the lates/adequate version of sass, install ruby, gem, sass & bundle.
|
||||
On Fedora F20, this is done with `sudo dnf install rubygems && gem install bundle && bundle install`
|
||||
from the same directory this README resides in.

How to tweak the theme
|
||||
----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Adwaita is a complex theme, so to keep it maintainable it's written and processed in SASS, the
|
||||
generated CSS is then transformed into a gresource file during gtk build and used at runtime in a
|
||||
non-legible or editable form.
|
||||
|
||||
It is very likely your change will happen in the _common.scss file. That's where all the widget
|
||||
selectors are defined. Here's a rundown of the "supporting" stylesheets, that are unlikely to be the
|
||||
right place for a drive by stylesheet fix:
|
||||
|
||||
_colors.scss - global color definitions. We keep the number of defined colors to a necessary minimum,
|
||||
most colors are derived form a handful of basics. It is an exact copy of the gtk+
|
||||
counterpart. Light theme is used for the classic theme and dark is for GNOME3 shell
|
||||
default.
|
||||
|
||||
_drawing.scss - drawing helper mixings/functions to allow easier definition of widget drawing under
|
||||
specific context. This is why Adwaita isn't 15000 LOC.
|
||||
|
||||
_common.scss - actual definitions of style for each widget. This is where you are likely to add/remove
|
||||
your changes.
|
||||
|
||||
You can read about SASS at http://sass-lang.com/documentation/. Once you make your changes to the
|
||||
_common.scss file, you can either run the ./parse-sass.sh script or keep SASS watching for changes as you
|
||||
edit. This is done by running `bundle exec sass --watch --sourcemap=none .` If sass is out of date, or is
|
||||
missing, you can install it with `bundle install`.
