 Yesterday, I was talking about Kvantum and how we have just some handful of good C++ Q-styles that actually theme the applications. And one of them is Shirley Lithley. And by the way, the developer of Lithley, I'm not sure how to pronounce this, Lokes, I guess, was actually active in the VDG room and we were able to give suggestions and such, which was very nice. This is actually a fork of Breeze. So it is based on the Breeze theme, and that also tells you that it's not really easy to start a Q-style theme from scratch, which again is why Kvantum exists in the first place. But in this case, Breeze was forked and it was improved, of course, in a direction that Breeze itself couldn't quite take, because it's a different kind of theme. But for those who like this kind of things, like transparency and stuff, it was improved for those people. And it's a rather interesting theme. So I've got installed and let me actually tell you right away how to get this. And again, depends on your distribution. If you are on Arc or OpenSuzet or Fedora, it's fine. Otherwise, you have to manually build this. I was on Ubuntu, I had to build this. It's not particularly difficult. You just copy paste and you're done. So it's pretty easy. It's not as easy as clicking a get from the KD store, but still. So let's open up Dolphin. Now by default, it might look somewhat out of place, somewhat. And that's simply because some components such as the title bar are not actually directly themed by the application style. Because I know that sounds weird, but the title bar is not part of the application. It's a decoration that's added by the window manager. So that's themed by the window manager using decoration settings themes. Sorry. And if you want to theme this to be consistent, I think that installing lightly should also give you one window decoration for consistency. So here it is lightly. So you also switch that one. So you can see that we've got some nice things such as the sidebar is actually transparent, which I personally love. I should probably use a normal color scheme. But not only that, lightly also customizes stuff like buttons and tab bars. And you can see this here nicely. These are tabs. And they don't look like this at all in Breeze. They will also look like this. I think if you use like Kate, in theory at least. Okay. And this. Yes, you can see that they use a different style compared to default that you might prefer. It actually looks pretty nice. So yeah, you can you can customize some of the things like the transparency, of course. Contacts menus are also transparent to some extent. You can see that by right clicking the wallpaper, you can see that it is transparent. And you can change the corner radius. But I don't actually remember how this one works. So so about that. It still might require some tweaking of the theme to actually get to this perfect look that's showcased in the screenshots. However, that's due to applications made or being made of different components. And each component has to be correctly configured, like the decoration, application theme, the color scheme and everything. So that is slightly annoying to set up actually. I think that you also need a color scheme to enable this completely. Yep, sorry about that. It's likely and it improves it somewhat. So now it's more consistent. And the blur is broken for the decoration. That's another things that you have to correctly set up and stuff. So you know, there's probably it's probably better to use the force blur plugin to try to deal with these things. It's something that actually requires some work to get perfect. But that's how rising works. So if you like to customize stuffs, you also need to give it some time to actually set up everything properly. So but if you do have that time and you do want your desktop to look flawless, you can achieve it. And I do think that some like third party distributions could make use of some lightly out of the box, because if it's out of the box, then you know, it's correctly configured. The reason why very few like lightly hasn't quite been nothing of life. Let me say this has been upstreamed to breeze is well, not only the fact that it has a very clear distinctive look, which is different from breeze and breeze is not really interested in trying to be something else. It tries to be breeze and tries to improve at it. But also, there's the fact that some of the things that lightly do does sorry, are somewhat hacky things just like one to in order to get the blurred. It's not currently blurred on my computer, but in order to get the blurred toolbars, you do need some packs. So that's a sad reality. Hopefully again, that will improve in the future. But for now, lightly is probably in my opinion, the not first party best application desktop style that we currently have. So check it out and tell me what you think of it. And by the way, it's still broke yet some names are still missing from the list. I'm so sorry, but I'm trying. Okay, I'm doing my best. If you'd like to contribute to me doing these videos about things in the KDE environment and Linux in general, then you can do that through donation links. And I should anyway show support like all of the people that are supporting me in the list because I gotta say thank you to all of them. It's such a nice thing to do if you think about it. Anyway, see you tomorrow.
