rofi coloring problem

[CodeHeister]

Picom blurs the background and the transparent colors are stored in .config/rofi/colors.rasi. To add blur, configure it through picom or find blur section in my picom configs.
If you want to make it less transparent and include my colors, you should just copy colors.rasi directly to your rofi configs in the same directory or rewrite the path in rofi file.

To add colors :

1. Copy .config/rofi/colors.rasi to your rofi configs.
2. To make the background less transparent, find win-bg in colors.rasi, change or delete last 2 characters.

As an example :

• win-bg : #282c34cc;

• win-bg : #282c3411;
  to make it more transparent i set a lower number for alpha (last 2 characters)

• win-bg : #282c34;
  to make the color solid i remove alpha

You may edit all colors in the same way.

To make easily a screenshot with a rofi without any external software you may use rofi -no-lazy-grab -show drun -theme "~/.config/rofi/searcher.rasi"; maim --hidecursor | xclip -selection clipboard -t image/png that uses maim and xclip or rofi -no-lazy-grab -show drun -theme "~/.config/rofi/searcher.rasi"; maim --hidecursor | tee ~/Pictures/Screenshots/$(date "+Screenshot-%G-%m-%d_%H.%M.%S").png | xclip -selection clipboard -t image/png that also uses tee to save screenshot in a file.

@CodeHeister did you have the same problem with i3lock while using rofi powermenu. If so how did you solve it?

[CodeHeister]

I don't use system lock. I just suspend my system, logout or swap to another tty, but i have passwords everywhere so i don't have to worry about my system. Also nobody knows how to navigate in my system, so i'm calm.

• bindsym $mod+Shift+p exec i3lock -c 000000 worked.
• xss-lock -- i3lock -n -c 000000 in .xinitrc and loginctl lock-session in rofi also worked.

Both options worked for me, so there should be no troubles.

Thanks for the info 👍!
I looked at rofi's .rsai file and scripts and they look likes just CSS to me, is that right? If so could you guide me to some resources for rofi component creation with CSS and .sh scripts for them I happen to be learning Frontend right now so maybe I'll try practising my skills there.
Thank you

You can start with this or this. There's everything described. Look for configs of your interest and try to configure on your own.
