I have discovered new icons. Found them at a LinuxScoop tutorial they called Sevi Icons. really liked them. Now I have to figure out how to integrate Polybar into the Plasma desktop.
This is my New Earth Plasma Desktop with Orchis-Theme. Really cool :smiley:

Hi guys testing a few things out.

In my config.ini there is now also a new custom font.

font-0 = “JetBrainsMono Nerd Font:style=Bold:pixelsize=11;3”
font-1 = “Font Awesome 5 Brands:size=11;2”
font-2 = “Font Awesome 5 Free Solid:size=9;2”
font-3 = “FiraCode Nerd Font Mono:antialias=false:style=Regular:size=11;3”
font-4 = “Font Awesome 5 Free Solid:size=11;2”
font-5 = “Noto Color Emoji:scale=8;2”
font-6 = “Material Design Icons:scale=8;2”
font-7 = “redblizard:size=11;3” <--------- This font is only used in combination with the launcher module.

Love that eos icon, it looks real good :+1:

Well there is not really an endeavouros icon for polybar, there is of course an arch icon or I should actually say a gylphs font because that’s what it is, but to use the one from arch with endeavouros that’s not really great so I thought then i have to be creative myself. And I think the result is quite good.

New font = Jet Brains Mono?
Try Victor Mono.

No last font in the row !

What does that mean?

If you did take a look at the screenshot i did created a custom font for the endeavouros icon in the polybar, i had to do this because there is none. and using the Arch linux icon does not really fit because endeavouros is not really arch.

What??? :laughing:

Well okay very close.

can you post

inxi -Fza 

yeah then i see my laptop specs

Is there a thread for discussing how to make this stuff? I’ve come to the conclusion that my desktop is a damn shame, and made it a mission to make is sleek as can be. But I know little about it.

I think that the best way to start is just copy some config that you like and start messing with it by trial and error.

you can start a thread with the requirements you want. I’m sure some users will chime in with their thoughts

Thanks!

I’m in the process of doing that. I’ll probably end up with a whole bunch of virtualbox installs of minimalist distros. So far, my goal is to replicate the Archcraft Openbox look.

Thanks, I’ll start one when I have a bunch of questions!

Virtual box is great tool to test (or in my case break stuff…) You can see all Archcraft configs here: https://github.com/archcraft-os
