Does anyone know where the default theme for rofi is being pulled from? I want to adjust the color and transparency values.
/usr/share/rofi/themes
Just run this: find ./ -iname "*.rasi"
The command should be find / -iname "*.rasi"
Edit: More info, just in case needed:
On my system, the default theme for rofi was “Arc by Sergio Morales”
Themes can be previewed with command rofi-theme-selector

Hi @flyingcakes
I know where the .rasi files are located. It is just that none of them are the default. I swear I came across it last night I just can’t remember where. I remember a line that basically said color @arc-dark.rasi. I will have a look at “Arc by Sergio Morales”.rasi.
Could please you post a screenshot how your rofi currently looks like?

Arc dark is an official theme in rofi. https://github.com/davatorium/rofi-themes/blob/master/Official%20Themes/Arc-Dark.rasi
Under rofi-theme-selector there is one theme called “Arc dark by leofa”.
Maybe thats the one.
Edit:
The first few lines from the Github link I posted
/************************************************
- ROFI Color theme
- User: leofa
- Copyright: 2017 leofa
***********************************************/
So “Arc Dark by leofa” should be the one you need to modify.
Set a timer
And you get the screenshot

If I’m not mistaken then this is the default theme that comes with EnOS theming of i3wm.
See line 137 here: https://github.com/endeavouros-team/i3-EndeavourOS/blob/master/.config/i3/config#L317
Just confirm once if this is the one you’re using on your system

Yes that is what I have in i3 config.
That one is based off the theme called “android_notification by Rasi”
(I deduced by applying each theme and comparing with your screenshot)
My head is a mess and I gotta go to a doctor to check if I’m color blind.

You have to be 
kidding me… 
Let me have a look.
If its not then my messy configs and home folder are to blame. 
This time I’m 99.99% sure I’ve spotted the theme you’re using. Its defined in your .Xresources file
I didn’t suspect it would be defined here, because I usually don’t touch Xresources.
It looks like it is using parts of different rasi’s to make a custom rasi.

In the experimentation process, I managed to scramble by rofi config. It looks weird now
At this point, I want to do sudo rm / -rf and start all over again
