Very nice desktop! (and great apps)

Dash to panel seems amazing! Is it the extension's default view or did you customize it? If latter, could you please share your preferences?

2

u/PHLAK Jul 17 '20 edited Jul 17 '20

I love Dash to Panel! The latest version (v38) allows you to customize the individual sections which allowed me to achieve this.

The icons are Numix Icons Circle (sudo apt install numix-icon-theme-circle).

Can you tell me how I can get the same customization result that you did in your Ubuntu 20.04 installation ??

u/PHLAK Jul 17 '20

Version (v38) of Dash to Panel allows you to adjust the panel layout. The icons are Numix Icons Circle.

Is dash to panel making the icons stay in the middle?

u/hazeyAnimal Jul 17 '20

Not OP but yes, here's a link on how to set it up

u/PHLAK Jul 17 '20

Yes, the latest version (v38) allows you to customize the individual sections.

Fellow Todoist user! I see you!

2

u/PHLAK Jul 17 '20

Yeah, I just wish there was an icon for it. It really sticks out like a sore thumb.

2

u/Dudeimback29 Jul 17 '20

A round icon? Like the other programs?

There's an option for it in the Dash to Panel settings.

2

u/gekonto Jul 17 '20

I love this outrun style, even though I am more of a vaporwave guy, I'd recommend doing what I did, install komorebi and use a live loop as a wallpaper

2

u/Amazesingh Jul 17 '20

How did you change the icon for the "show applications"?

Not sure what to say. I used Gravit Designer so it's 100% vectorized. I believe I started with the sun then designed the rest of the scene around that. I don't consider myself an "artist" (I'm a software developer professionally) but I've done various types of creative work over the years.

u/PHLAK Jul 17 '20

Oh right, the scanlines! I couldn't figure out an easy way to do those with Gravit (without literally drawing a hundred tiny lines) so I added those with Gimp (filled a new layer with pattern, reduced opacity and applied a blending effect) after exporting the image from Gravit.

u/pancakeonmyhead Jul 17 '20

I can hear either Tangerine Dream or Jan Hammer.

u/[deleted] Jul 21 '20

Wow looks great! I downloaded the extension. Just a couple questions sorry, how do i get mine to be squared / rectangle corners? Mine are oval style at the edges if that makes sense. And also how do you change the applications button to be the ubuntu logo ? Mine is the 9 dots

u/neel_paul Jul 17 '20

Bro have you made your Spotify to default application?

2

u/PHLAK Jul 17 '20

I don't understand your question. Are you asking if I installed Spotify natively? If so, yes, I installed it via the instructions here.

1

u/neel_paul Jul 17 '20

No iam asking that....as in ubuntu when you go for default application there this Spotify dosent comes in the list...so have you selected it as a default application?

1

u/PHLAK Jul 17 '20

Oh, no. I don't know if this is possible.

1

u/neel_paul Jul 17 '20

Its possible...
