There are two default styles: a light and a dark one. They are both based upon base16 tomorrow, the dark one using tomorrow night. To switch between them, set the style
setting in the vimiv.conf
file to default
or default-dark
respectively.
The style files of the default styles are written to the styles
directory on startup if they do not exist. The styles directory is located in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vimiv/
where $XDG_CONFIG_HOME
is usually ~/.config/
if you have not updated it.
A bunch of base16 styles to pick from are available in the base16-vimiv repository.
Creating your own style is easy:
Create a new file in the styles
directory. The file must start with the [STYLE]
header.
Define the colors base00
to base0f
. This is required as these colors are referenced by the individual options.
Change the style
setting in the vimiv.conf
file to the name of your newly created file.
Optional: override any other option such as the global font
or individual settings like thumbnail.padding
.
Hint
Refer to the created default style for all available options
Hint
Defined style options can be referenced via new_option = {other_option}
, for example to use a different base color for mark-related things you can use mark.color = {base0a}
.
Hint
The python configparser module is not case sensitive. Therefore it is a good idea to keep all your style options in lower case.
