Flat-Plat

A Material Design-like flat theme for GTK3, GTK2, and GNOME Shell.

Features

  • Supports ripple effect animations (only GTK3 apps).

  • Supports both light and dark variants.

  • Supports Dash to Dock extension's theming.

  • Supports Chrome's theme and scrollbars extensions.

  • Appears more beautifully when you use a font family including Medium and Light weight.

Requirements

  • GNOME/GTK+ 3.14, 3.16, 3.18 or 3.20

  • The gnome-themes-standard package for GTK2

  • The pixmap (or pixbuf) engine for GTK2

If default Adwaita works fine, it should also works fine.

Installation

  1. Download an archive.

    1. 20160404](https://github.com/nana-4/Flat-Plat/releases/download/3.20.20160404/Flat-Plat-3.20.20160404.tar.gz) for GNOME 3.20

  2. Extract it to the theme directory.

  3. Use gnome-tweak-tool to change the theme.

  4. Optionally, open the chrome folder and drag and drop the .crx files onto the Chrome's extensions page (chrome://extensions/).

GDM (Lock/Login Screen)

To change the GDM theme, you need to rewrite a system file. Please be careful because if it fails, the desktop environment may not operate correctly.

Notes:

  • Not supported for GNOME 3.14, sorry.

  • When applying this, other shell themes might look broken.

Install

  1. Backup the existing .gresource file.(Skip this step if you just update it.)

sudo cp /usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource /usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource~

  1. Replace it with the new one.

sudo cp /usr/share/themes/Flat-Plat/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource /usr/share/gnome-shell * If you put this theme in ~/.themes:

sudo cp ~/.themes/Flat-Plat/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource /usr/share/gnome-shell

  1. Restart GNOME Shell (press Alt+F2, then type r).

Uninstall

  1. Restore to original theme from the backup.

sudo mv -f /usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource~ /usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource

  1. Restart GNOME Shell (press Alt+F2, then type r).
