NAME
nwg-look - GTK3 settings editor for wlroots environments like Sway.
SYNOPSIS
nwg-look [options]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page describes nwg-look, a GTK3 settings editor designed to work properly in wlroots-based Wayland environments, such as Sway. The look and feel is strongly influenced by LXAppearance, but nwg-look is intended to free the user from a few inconveniences: it works natively on Wayland, and it applies gsettings directly, so you don't need to add anything special to your Sway configuration.
OPTIONS
- -a
-
Apply stored gsettings and quit.
- -d
-
Enable debug messages.
- -r
-
Restore to default values and quit.
- -v
-
Display version information.
- -x
-
Export config files and quit.
USAGE
With Sway, you don't need any special stuff in your Sway configuration file. This means you should remove any "gsettings" or "import-gsettings" directives from your Sway configuration.
COMPATIBILITY
Some gsettings keys have no direct counterparts in Gtk.Settings. While exporting the settings.ini file, nwg-look uses the most similar values:
| !.3rlns "" |
| !.3rlnx "" |
| delim off |
| delim on |
| delim off |
| delim on |
| delim on |
| .nr 3crow 0 |
| gsettings Gtk.Settings |
| .nr 3brule 1 |
| .nr 3brule 0 |
| .nr 3crow 1 |
| font-hinting gtk-xfg-hintstyle |
| .nr 3brule 1 |
| .nr 3brule 0 |
| .nr 3crow 2 |
| font-antialiasing gtk-xft-antialias |
| .nr 3brule 1 |
| .nr 3brule 0 |
| .nr 3crow 3 |
| font-rgba-order gtk-xft-rgba |
| .nr 3brule 1 |
| delim off |
| delim on |
