Any guide or something? That looks amazing ngl
Sure thing!
This comment ended up being very big and I'm not good at formatting, it would be better if I passed it through an LLM to format it nicely, but this already took a lot of effort and I would need to edit that output too, so I'll leave it as it is.
Lil disclaimer: The names of things might be a bit different since I use my system in Portuguese and I'm translating it myself for this comment. And there's still things I didn't do like trying to add transparency to GTK4 apps and things I didn't include cause I haven't finished yet, like modifying the Midnight Catppuccin theme for Discord and the Catppuccin theme for Zen Browser, the general theme also wasn't extensively tested, so there might be a few issues here and there. Lastly, if there's any settings I didn't talk about, leave it as default.
~/.local/share/color-schemes. I modified it myself to add transparency and since I didn't fork it and upload to GitHub, I can't really distribute it without the license, so here's the changes I did, they are minimal, so it should be fairly quick to copy (the 4th number is the alpha channel, you can change it to alter the transparency of elements if you wish):Color=36, 39, 58, 255BackgroundNormal=54, 58, 79, 155BackgroundNormal=30, 32, 48, 169ForegroundActive=245, 169, 127, 150ForegroundInactive=165, 173, 203, 153BackgroundNormal=36, 39, 58, 235DecorationFocus=145, 215, 227, 200DecorationHover=54, 58, 79, 200BackgroundNormal=30, 32, 48, 125DecorationFocus=145, 215, 227, 125DecorationHover=54, 58, 79, 125activeBackground=36, 39, 58, 169inactiveBackground=24, 25, 38, 169zen.widget.linux.transparencyinabout:configEpic thx
