Adwaita trial
-------------
This is a refresh of the Adwaita theme that is provided for test purposes.
To test it, download the NewAdwaita-3.tar.xz archive, and extract it in
your theme folder:
$ tar xf NewAdwaita-3.tar.xz -C $XDG_DATA_HOME/themes/
Now, you can either switch your entire desktop to the NewAdwaita theme,
or use the GTK_THEME environment variable to override the theme for
individual apps:
$ GTK_THEME=NewAdwaita gtk3-widget-factory
$ GTK_THEME=NewAdwaita-dark gtk3-demo
Some applications are choosing their own custom css depending on the
theme name, so it is useful to also test the new theme under name "Adwaita".
This can be done as follows (assuming your desktop theme is Adwaita):
$ G_RESOURCE_OVERLAYS=/org/gtk/libgtk/theme/Adwaita=$XDG_DATA_HOME/themes/NewAdwaita/gtk-3.0 gtk3-demo
Note that flatpak apps will not see the themes in ~/.local/share/themes.
This can be worked around in various ways. One way is to install the
new theme system-wide (in /usr/share/themes), another is add ~/.local/share
to XDG_DATA_DIRS _inside_ the sandbox, like this:
$ flatpak run --command=sh org.gnome.Builder
[📦 org.gnome.Builder flatpak]$ XDG_DATA_DIRS=$HOME/.local/share:$XDG_DATA_DIRS
[📦 org.gnome.Builder flatpak]$ gnome-builder
Happy testing, and let us know what you think!
