Window Specific Overrides like Breeze

Open baduhai opened this issue 5 years ago • 10 comments

It's be nice if you could edit the opacity of the titlebar, as well as where the window title is displayed, if at all.

about overrides, you can do that in window rules

also about the opacity you can change it in src/Decoration.cc lines 90,91 (if you like me do not want to wait a gui)

While you can do that, doing it purely through this manner will make it so that applications like steam won't have drop shadows.

Adding support for window specific over-rides would be sweet, as applications with forced client-side decorations look out of place; e.g. Steam

You can now configure the inactive/active opacity.

Where can I find this src/Decoration.cc on arch? Because I would be particularly interested in having the totally opaque titlebar.

Just edit the opacity to 1.0 of active/inactive in System Settings > Window Decorations > Hover "Material" > Configure button.

Arch downloads the source, compiles it for you, installs it, then deletes the source probably.

So if you want to manually edit the source, you should uninstall the AUR package first, then you would need to follow the manual install instructions in the project's ReadMe.

Changing this issue to "window specific over-rides" as we also have Issue #23 for title alignment.

Just edit the opacity to 1.0 of active/inactive in System Settings > Window Decorations > Hover "Material" > Configure button.

When I've installed the AUR Package, it doesn't show this settings window. Now it works! Very nice...

@Zren For applications like Steam that provide their own decorations but fail to comply with system window shadows and shapes, this override is very useful. Please consider adding.
