Not seeing Yaru-dark in Gnome Tweak Tool under Disco daily build. Am I missing something?

That’s a bug

[ricardosousa]

Excellent! Only one white variant is missing
Yaru White Theme variant

[mohan-ram]

That would be awesome. I know quite a few people that would like it. <- this was in reference to white variant of yaru theme.

Are you planning to adapt the Yaru theme to Unity?

[c-lobrano]

Do you mean, to make it available for Unity? If that so, it is one of the goals we need help for

The communitheme looks differently with Ubuntu 18.10, some of the icons are ugly in the communitheme in 18.04, such as Firefox and LibreOffice.

Suru in the news: https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2019/01/suru-icon-theme-in-ubuntu-19-04

[c-lobrano]

Nice, but basically wrong
The script is not ready, the icons are due to hard and manual work of @jaggers, @eaglers, @madsrh and @frederik-f

Sorry to repeat the crap I wrote on telegram but I think its fun:

Everyone loves squircles! Let’s get that open source world squircled and be one rounded, squircled happy family!

Here is another iteration of Yaru-dark theme and also Yaru icons on Unity 19.04…with the standard Ubuntu minimize, maximize, close signs.

(Only the file manger is not Ubuntu default one.)

[chanath]

This is Ubuntu 19.04.
Is it possible to say which icon theme is Yaru below?

(Disregard the file manager)

Is this true for all of the new icons? Was there an initial creation by a script which was then manually iterated on with small tweaks? Were all of the new icons manually tweaked? Or were they all made from scratch? What will happen when the script is made, will the manual icons be replaced by script icons or will there continue to be a mix of both or do we not know yet?

Also what are the icons part of? @snwh refused to allow third-party icons in upstream Suru, so I suppose the icons are ‘part of Yaru’ or ‘part of Yaru’s Suru’ rather than part of Suru per se? Where are they stored on GitHub?

Proceeding with order:

All new Icons have been manually crafted from scratch. Probably only the background squircle is the same, but it was manually crafted as well.

The surufy script will work only on icons that are not already present in Yaru/icons directory, so the new icons won’t be replaced (as well as the old ones).

Currently the new icons only appear on Yaru icon set, but we hope that eventually they will be accepted in upstream Suru as well. Initially, the team worked on the applications pre-installed in Ubuntu and currently the direction is to work on all the icon already provided by Gnome upstream.

NOTE: the script is not ready and won’t be probably ready for the next release (at least not pre-installed). I plan to write more about the current status in a separated thread.

Are they png not svg, these manually crafted icons?

[c-lobrano]

Both png and svg

About two days, multiple corrections, and the article still hasn’t been corrected. Really frustrated; this just keeps happening with OMGU’s coverage.

[frederik-f]

I’d say it’s not a big deal. It’s promotion for this theming project so it’s good (imho)

Can you just stop spamming with your unrelated screenshots and stuff…
