How to contain Chicago95 changes on XFCE only?
Greetings, I installed XFCE in my Ubuntu (comes with GNOME) just to try Chicago95 (and it's amazing!). However after going back to GNOME I find that some features are applied to GNOME as well such as the fonts and the sound scheme. How can I leave GNOME untouched from the Chicago95 changes?
Issues in GNOME after installing Chicago95 on XFCE:
- Fonts are changed in GNOME
- Sound scheme was changed in GNOME
- For some reason the GNOME panel now is acting weird: the fonts are messed up and for some reason my cursor reduces the size while positioned on the panel
NOTE: XFCE is on X11 while GNOME is on Wayland
I'm honestly not sure you can. XFCE uses GTK so a lot of the setting changes are the same. You may want to ask this question on XFCE forums or a GNOME help board.
I realize it's been a while since you posted this, but XFCE has a Session and Startup settings menu that you can add any command to. You could potentially use this to set environment variables (e.g. GTK_THEME for the GTK3 theme) when XFCE starts. The downside of this is that you would get a little bit of pop-in while XFCE loads; another idea is to create a custom desktop session that first sets those environment variables and then starts XFCE so that the re-theming process is seamless.
