CBLACK - CINNAMON

Installation

  • Download the zip file and extract the folder.
  • Move the document to the .themes folder located in the /home/$USER/.themes

FQA

What custom applets do I use?

  1. CinnVIIStarkMenu - https://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/281
  2. Collapsible Systray - https://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/265
  3. Shutdown applet - https://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/159
  4. Weather - https://cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com/applets/view/17

How to make the panel transparent?

Inside the CBlack folder, open the cinnamon.css file, search the following code

.panel-left {
    box-shadow: 1px 0px 0px 0px rgba(20, 20, 20, 1);
}

.panel-right {
    box-shadow: -1px 0px 0px 0px rgba(20, 20, 20, 1);
}

.panel-top {
    box-shadow: 0px 1px 0px 0px rgba(20, 20, 20, 1);
}

.panel-bottom {
    box-shadow: 0px -1px 0px 0px rgba(20, 20, 20, 1);
}

You modify the last value between 0 (full transparency) to 1 (full visibility)

What is the GTK theme based on?

It is based on the Linux Mint theme, only the colors, tooltip and the menu were modified.

Where can I get the wallpaper?

Theme is good. But there is a problem with color contract. When I set CBlack application theme vocabulary examples shown in Artha dictionary are in high blue contrast, which is making text unreadable and discomfort to eyes.

Best theme! But some transparency would be better I think. Or probably not. Thanks a million for this awesome theme!!

This theme is great but, contrast is not very good between opened and closed apps in the task bar.

The instructions to make the panel transparent should be updated due to changes in the code. The only way I found to make the panel transparent was to modify the following: #panel { padding: 0px; height: 32px; width: 32px; background-color: none; <---- This line colour: #cccccccc; font-weight: normal; } #panel:highlight { background-color: #aa5555; } I would appreciate confirmation if the change is correct or if there is a better way.

Sorry, in my last comment I used alpha of 0.5 but said for "70% transparency", but I am sure you realized it was a typo ;)
Suhail Mahmood

Using `rgba` also works. So to use the same color but with 70% transparency, you can use this: background-color: rgba(47, 47, 47, 0.5);

Pretty nice theme! I've being trying (unsucessfully) to modify the gtk.css file to make transparent the background of the terminal. Any advice what I need to do?
Renato Ayau
Renato Ayau-4 years ago
Hi and thanks, it depends on the distribution and the terminal you use. If you use Linuxt-Mint with gnome-terminal, go to settings and create a profile and in the "color tab" you can make it transparent.

Raymundo Cassani-4 years ago
Thanks for the reply. I'm using Cinnamon in Arch, which uses the default gnome-terminal (without the transparency option). However, I was able to make the background transparent with this: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/409764/background-transparency-for-gnome-terminal

I think this should be called CGrey not CBlack. Check out Adara-Dark that is actually black ;)
cloweling
cloweling-5 years ago
XDDD good subject, but initially my subject was black but eventually it bothered me, but if the sunlight comes and the best thing I did is connect it with the dark version of the gtk theme of linux mint

Do you plan keep both Light and Dark variants for Controls. The new Dark one is pretty awesome, but please return the Light
cloweling
cloweling-5 years ago
Of course, I will continue only that now the dark version ends, the white one I still have it halfway, I will make some variants, such as the lighter menus and using the official clear theme of Linux mint only with the changes

Thank you for making the perfect task-bar theme for me! I do have a small question. I edited the theme color to match my window theme, but there is one area that I have a hard time finding so I can change that color as well. I hope you can tell me what value I need to tweak so I can adjust the color to match my theme as well. See the screenshot at: https://imgur.com/a/xhLgJ08 As you can see, I am talking about the small area that is still brownish/grayish. Hope you can help me out. Thanks again!

Thank you very much, sorry that until today I realized your message, to change that part is in .popup-sub-menu { background-color: rgb (55, 55, 55); }

@Leirbag te recomiendo que veas el tema original de Cinnamon ubicado /usr/share/cinnamon/themes/.../cinnamon.css y solo lo estudies, mires los comentarios y que tengas un poco de idea como usar CSS, igual yo también ando aprendiendo, así que todo se puede, en las siguientes semanas me pondré a mejorar un poco mas el tema en diferentes partes del panel.
