blackosx Posted May 14, 2021 Author Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) I’ve updated all Set5 icon sets on the repo with Linux icons. There are also a few more variations on the sets. EDIT: I’ve also added some links to the preview images to the front page of the repo. EDIT2: I’ve not added links to WindowReflection Black or the Brights sets yet but will do when I can.

blackosx Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Nice. A solid red fill, behind a solid black fill with punched hole and bevels. Should work just fine. I look forward to seeing it Edited May 15, 2021 by blackosx Fix spelling of behind 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackosx Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 Yeah. I think I first saw the idea used in the Chameleon Bullet theme by No Smoking Bandit. It’s a good technique and can make for some nice looking themes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one looks very striking and promises to be a keeper in any OC theme collection. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackosx Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 OpenCore/Opencanopy 0.7.0 was updated yesterday with support for image directories so themes images can now be bundled in to a single dir. OcBinaryData has also been updated with Theme dirs: Acidanthera/Chardonnay Acidanthera/GoldenGate Acidanthera/Syrah As always check the configuration PDF for details, but for speed for the relevant part is here: Quote 13. PickerVariant Type: plist string Failsafe: Auto Description: Choose specific icon set to be used for boot management. An icon set is a directory path relative to Resources\Image, where the icons and an optional manifest are located. It is recommended for the artists to use provide their sets in the Vendor\Set format, e.g. Acidanthera\GoldenGate. Sample resources provided as a part of OcBinaryData repository provide the following icon set: • Acidanthera\GoldenGate — macOS 11 styled icon set. • Acidanthera\Syrah — macOS 10.10 styled icon set. • Acidanthera\Chardonnay — macOS 10.4 styled icon set. For convenience purposes there also are predefined aliases: • Auto — Automatically select one set of icons based on the DefaultBackground colour: Acidanthera\GoldenGate for Syrah Black and Acidanthera\Chardonnay for Light Gray. • Default — Acidanthera\GoldenGate. So to make this work for you, all theme icon files from now on will lose any prefix and just be named as the icon, for example: AppleRecv.icns AppleTM.icns BtnFocus.icns ... Your OC/Resources/Image/ dir will then contain a vendor dir, for example Acidanthera, Blackosx or Chris1111 (or whatever you want) and then in that dir will be theme dirs from that person/vendor. You set the PickerVariant option in config plist to match the theme you wish to load. So if I set my OC dir to this... Then I can instruct OpenCanopy to use my BsxImacBlue_ theme by entering the following as the PickerVariant <key>PickerVariant</key> <string>Blackosx\BsxImacBlue_</string> Good work guys. And looking forward to any upcoming changes too. Thanks to the devs for making this change Also thanks to Mike Beaton for the heads up. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In PickerVariant I must write \Blackosx\BsxImacBlue_ instead of Blackosx\BsxImacBlue_. Does it work fine for you without the first backward slash?

So I reverted to the tried and tested method of renaming the the icons and placing them in the Image folder that works every time.

So I reverted to the tried and tested method of renaming the the icons and placing them in the Image folder that works every time. Maybe I am suffering a bout of brain freeze but it just won't work for me. Strange. For example, I have 3 icons set made by different vendors: \EFI\OC\Resources\Image\Acidanthera\GoldenGate \EFI\OC\Resources\Image\Blackosx\BsxDarkFenceGreen \EFI\OC\Resources\Image\Chris1111\Apple-BnW. Directory tree looks like this: ├── Audio ├── Font ├── Image │ ├── Acidanthera │ │ ├── GoldenGate │ │ │ ├── Apple.icns │ │ │ ├── AppleRecv.icns │ │ │ ├── AppleTM.icns │ │ │ ├── BtnFocus.icns │ │ │ ├── ... │ ├── Blackosx │ │ ├── BsxDarkFenceGreen │ │ │ ├── Apple.icns │ │ │ ├── AppleRecv.icns │ │ │ ├── AppleTM.icns │ │ │ ├── BtnFocus.icns │ │ │ ├── ... │ └── Chris1111 │ └── Apple-BnW │ ├── Apple.icns │ ├── AppleRecv.icns │ ├── AppleTM.icns │ ├── BtnFocus.icns │ ├── ... └── Label Depending on the PickerVariant values: PickerVariant=Default > GoldenGate is the chosen theme PickerVariant=Blackosx\BsxDarkFenceGreen > BsxDarkFenceGreen is the chosen theme PickerVariant=Chris1111\Apple-BnW > Apple-BnW is the chosen theme. As I said to @Matgen84 icons are without prefixes? Edited May 17, 2021 by miliuco 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
