Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Hi there!, I leave you these two useful programs for create jwm themes. Enjoy!

Jwm color changer 0.4 (Mediafire)

Jwm theme maker 2.2 (Mediafire)

Screenshots added

Thank you, @radames.
In the oldforum, you also can download there: https://oldforum.puppylinux.com/viewtop ... 8#p1042648

You should be able to just attach these pets to the first post.

They are small enough in size to attach.
Maximum filesize per attachment: 512 KiB.

Thanks @recobayu, they are nice applications, when I added this post maybe the old forum was down o something like that.

Done.

I have the JWM Theme Creation tool, Color Changer, JWM Desk, all running on Fossa-pup. My question relates to GTK. I would like to get all my system windows looking like this:

In JWMdesk under the GTK menu there is a color scheme option that appears to have the options I need to create the Theme. However the menu says Setting color scheme is not available without lxsession as session manager

How do I access lxsession?

maybe you know @puddlemoon

JWM/rox is session manager now. It would essentially mean installing LXDE desktop environment, logging out of JWM, and back into LXDE. possible for sure but can get really messy switching desktops. Would be good to look into peebee's ydrv versions of LXDE from here if that was of real interest. The gtk theme picker in jwmdesk is just borrowed from the lx suite so to speak, for almost that one task.

Theming fossa has been rather convoluted because of the team effort that makes up the desktop environment. It takes separate files for gtk2, gtk3 and jwm to get everything matching well. I also have 3 different icon sets in use on the dark theme from jackalpup.. lol.
I mostly modified the files manually but there is a gtk theme creator in quickpet (themix) which helped me with the gtk3 part. I haven't used the jwm theme maker.

Hope that at least sheds some light.

@puddlemoon

Yes, that clears it up quite a bit. So it's really a matter of switching desktop environments, which I might look at some day using an experimental install.

thanks!
