Description:

XFCE Colour Lite consists of 6 themes. The Window theme is ultra lite.
XFCE Colour Dark also consists of 6 themes. The Window theme is greyish/dark.
Thanks to the Vimix themes pack.

-------------------------------------------------------
*NOTE:

IF THE WHISKER-MENU IS USING MORE RESOURCES THAN INTENDED, THEN PLEASE DO THE FOLLOWING:
Go to Settings -> Panel -> Appearance -> Style -> Select `Solid Colour` or `Background image`

ALTERNATIVELY, you can click your secondary mouse button on the panel, and select Panel -> Panel Preferences... -> Appearance ...

This will not make the panel look any different, but it will use lesser resources as other themes.

This is a known bug to us that we can't get around without breaking the beautiful button layout! :(
The only way to get around this is the one stated above.
Let us know if you find other bug(s).
-------------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION:

Regular Installation:
Download and decompress the file, and copy the contents to ~/.themes/ directory.

Root Installation:
If you want to make it available for all users, then go as root (but not recommended since it could make your maintenance harder):
Download and decompress the file, and copy the contents to /usr/share/themes/ directory.

Arch xfce started revving fans up and didn't stop until I removed the theme.

As I said earlier, that happens only with whiskermenu. The CPU usage goes higher. That could be fixed, but it so far changes the button layout.

For the time being:
Go to Settings -> Panel -> Appearance -> Style -> Select `Solid Colour` or `Background image`

This will fix the issue

I have tested this on XFCE 4.12 and 4.13, so far switching the panel style from 'None' to something else is a quick fix! But removing xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin will also fix it, but that's not a good solution!

Xfce panel. The pulse audio is white on panel in dark theme. Whisker is white on panel in dark theme. Why make the xfwm4 a different color than the top of thunar?

The xfwm4 and menu differs by colour, and I think it looks a bit better. Say with the pink, yellow/ruby/dark and beryl/doder all differs in the dark theme. It just to give a different look and feel...

+ Loved this theme, specially the dark version, but there are some issues with it. buttons missing outlines and menus in some XFCE apps ,like mousepad, get jumbled up. Check this https://imgur.com/a/Kshl30n

I have really modified it in mousepad and geany, so far I didn't see anything! It's weird...

May I ask what are the versions of both mousepad and XFCE?

how did you get the bottom bat layout and top bar layout like that?

Report

For the preview I am using the Nemo file manager.

The top layout is set from the settings. If you are using xfwm4 WM (the xfce4 window manager), then you can do that pretty easily.

I was using thunar file manager if that what you where talking about. But i did not have that look in your preview.

I am using `Nemo` for the preview. If you are on Arch, use `pacman -S nemo`
Nemo is a Linux Mint file manager forked from Nautilus file manager!

My processor use went way up and fans started running as soon as I applied the dark theme. I am in Arch Xfce.

Yeah, is the panel appearance set to 'None (use system style)'? You just can set the style to solid colour.
I will fix this in the next update.

This bug is also mentioned in the Description of this theme.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but the higher CPU usage is due to a button layout (https://github.com/vinceliuice/vimix-gtk-themes/issues/56) . We can change that, but it will not look that elegant.

The only way to get around is to (as stated in the description):

Go to Settings -> Panel -> Appearance -> Style -> Select `Solid Colour` or `Background image`

It will not change the look, but it will reduce the CPU usage, and will work like any other XFCE themes.

Thank you!

I think I'm getting a similar issue its really buggy not sure if its do to CPU issue or what. I tried setting it to these and no difference at all. I can tell the theme is buggy when i right click the context meny and hover the blue its really buggy and the blue highlight shouldn't be doing these. Hopfully you fix it and fast becuase i do like this theme :)

I'm using Debian with XFCE desktop, and the Lite, Lite Beryl and Lite Doder all look the same (didn't try the other colors). Accent color is green.
