# Solarized theme for sddm

This theme is inspired by Numix sddm theme
([https://github.com/intialonso/intialonso.github.io](https://github.com/intialonso/intialonso.github.io/tree/master/themes/sddm/numix))
by Inti Alonso and the default sddm theme, maui ([https://github.com/sddm/sddm](https://github.com/sddm/sddm)).
Wallpaper was created using [inkscape](https://inkscape.org).
It also uses some icons from Numix icon theme
[https://github.com/numixproject/numix-icon-theme](https://github.com/numixproject/numix-icon-theme)
(shutdown, warning and down arrow icons).  
QML files contain license headers.  

## Aim
The aim of this theme is to display a simple yet complete sddm greeter based in
solarized palette by Ethan Schoonover
([http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized](http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized)).  
I use this colors almost everywhere so, why not in the greeter? ;)

## Dependencies
This theme relies in `Fontawesome` font. If you try this, make sure that it is
installed in your system. In archlinux this font can be installed from aur:  

- [ttf-font-awesome](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ttf-font-awesome)  

## Fonts

This theme uses by default `Raleway` font. If `Raleway` is not installed
default sddm font is used. `Raleway` can be installed on arch from aur:

- [otf-raleway](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/otf-raleway/)  
- `Raleway` also can be installed from
  [ttf-google-fonts-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ttf-google-fonts-git/)
  which also installs other cool fonts.

#### Changing font in `theme.conf`:
If you want to try different fonts, or just use the
one you love, or simply setting one really installed in your system you can
modify the displayFont field in the`theme.conf` file (in the theme folder,
usually in `/usr/share/sddm/themes/solarized-sddm-theme/`) with your exclusive
font selection. For example, to change to Montserrat font:

```
[General]
background=background.png
displayFont="Montserrat"
```

But be careful, some fonts really don't mix well with the theme.

   Fix is in [sddm upstream](https://github.com/sddm/sddm), waiting for it in
   the stable version.
