How to change system colors

Page history last edited by Ben 16 years, 8 months ago

Klikit has provided an easy-to-use utility for customizing your system color scheme. As with most other Display editing funtions, you start by clicking on Launch > Kcontrol.  When the Control Center panel opens, click the Appearance & Themes icon, and then the Colors icon in the left pane.

 

 

 

Use the up/down arrows on the Color Scheme list to locate and select the ready made color scheme you want. The Color Settings pane at the top will display a preview, so you can easily try different schemes. Once you have selected your base scheme, the Widget Color gadget on the right, allows you to select and modify most any aspect of the selected scheme. Again, the preview in the top pane will display the results of your modifications, so you can experiment with different settings and combinations, until you find one that suits you.

 

 

Select the desired color for each widget in the Select Color panel.  You can use the Color Picker eyedropper tool to pick an existing color from a photo, or your desktop background, or choose a color in the color gradient gadget then fine-tune it with the slider to the right of the gradient box.  Add your chosen color to the custom colors list, and click OK.

 

 

Once you have the settings adjusted to your liking, click the Save Scheme button, give your new scheme a name, and click Save. You can always revert to one of the standard, ready-made schemes, so there is no way you can permanently bork your system from this control. Go wild! Experiment! Make your Xandros desktop uniquely your own. 

 

 

Finally, click the Apply button to apply your changes, and exit the Control Center.   papabearak
