My miserable dotfiles for Xfce

I'll write documentations for real, no matter how long it takes. I won't. Sorry.

Workflow: Youtube

r/unixporn post: Reddit

• Distro: That weird distro with an A in its logo. Distro doesn't matter for this rice, hopefully
• Desktop Environment: Xfce 4.18, obviously
• Window Manager: Xfwm4, again, obviously
• Compositor: Picom (this fork by fdev31)
• Panel: Xfce4-panel
• File Manager: Thunar
• App Launcher: Findex (You can also find a rofi config here, I use rofi for rofi-emoji)
• Widgets: Elkowars wacky widgets (User dashboard and system resource monitor)
• i3lock-color script as lockscreen
• Skippy-XD: Skippy-XD is similar to the expose-thing from MacOS
• Can't remember And more!

What do we have in this repo? (For now)

Theme related stuff

• Colorscheme: Tokyonight (Night variant)
• GTK theme: Lavanda, but with Tokyonight color palette. Supports GTK 3 and 4, but not libadwaita. I'm aware about an existing tokyonight gtk theme, but I don't like it, at least not for Xfce
• Kvantum theme: Lavanda, but with Tokyonight colorscheme applied.
• Xfwm theme: Made in figma. I like to call it "cirkle"
• Icon theme: A modified Zafiro icon theme (with Tokyonight colored folders and symbolic icons), Fluent, and I don't actually even remember
• Cursor theme: Volantes Cursors

Config files

• bat config (a better cat)
• gtk3.css config
• gtk4.css config for obvious stuffs
• Picom config WITH ANIMATIONS ON XFCE
• Neofetch config
• Skippy-XD: Skippy-XD is similar to the expose-thing from MacOS. I use this cause the regular alt-tab is so boring
• ~/.Xresources config
• Rofi config, although I use it for rofi-emoji. I use Findex as application launcher
• Onboard tokyonight theme. For real???
• i3lock-color lock screen script
• And some misc stuffs I don't remember about

Readme is to be changed soon, to make more sense

[Request] Install Script / Steps to install

First of all I want to say I love your work, all the rices you made look amazing!

I'm trying to get the same looks using the dots you provided in this repo using the xfce documentation, so far I got the darknord-gtk-theme applied, but I can't find how to get the bars and the icons you're using, any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

xfce4 panel config

Can you provide any documentation on how to achieve the xfce4 panel configuration?

how to setup this config ?

I've installed all the packages I thought I needed and redone all the configs - but I don't know why I can't have your desktop.

How to change maximum window size?

Can you please point me to right direction on how to configure the maximum size for the maximized windows?

I want it to use full space to the left, atm by using linuxscoop video configs, it's not using that.

Thanks.

Icons in the eww Memories dot files are turned into boxes with symbols in them

I was trying to use the the eww widget from the Memories section and I found that all the icons, including the one in the weather script, were turned into boxes

I'm guessing it's a font issue, but I'm not exactly sure how to fix that.

Open taskbar

Hi, i don't find what eww module i need to open to show the taskbar, since it don't show up automatically. can you tell me what it is ?

Is it possible to change the color scheme of Memories from red to a different color?

This might be a stupid question, but is there any (easy) way to change the color scheme of Memories?

[This may be helpful] List of all files in the repo that contain the repo owners home path (with line numbers).

If you are going to use these commands on your own, make sure to run it from your home directory after placing the .dotfiles into there or you will need to replace './' in the command with the path to where the repo dotfiles are stored on your system.

The first command lists the files containing "/home/mehedi" and the second command lists where in each file needs to be updated.

Example below:

[kyle@Kyle-Laptop]$ grep -rnhl '../' -e "/home/mehedi"
.config/fastfetch/config.conf
.config/btop/btop.conf
.config/xfce4/panel/whiskermenu-8.rc
.config/xfce4/panel/genmon-15.rc
.config/xfce4/panel/launcher-1/16518400331.desktop
.config/xfce4/panel/genmon-16.rc
.config/xfce4/panel/genmon-17.rc

[kyle@Kyle-Laptop]$ grep -rnh './' -e "/home/mehedi"
