Submitted: May 19 2014

Description:

Velours is a dark Plasma theme with a fuzzy texture and monochromatic icons.
It draws inspiration from Caledonia by Malcer and openSUSE by sumski.

There are two versions: one for Plasma 4 (not actively developped anymore) and one for Plasma 5.

[Update 2016/06/05]
All widgets and icons now use theme colors! This means you can easily customize it by editing the file named colors, or delete it to have Velours use your applications color scheme!

A Yakuake skin to match this theme can be found here: http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/?content=170866

If you would like the lock and logout screens to integrate perfectly with this theme (or any other Plasma theme), check out this look-and-feel package: http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/?content=174781.

Changelog:

[2016/06/05]
Gradients now use theme colors too, allowing complete color customization through the colors file.
Add quota icon
Switch license from BY-SA-NC to BY-SA to allow mixing with GPL-licensed artwork.

[2016/05/22]
Tweaked the improved contrast effect for better legibility
Most backgrounds (panels, pop-ups, tooltips, plasmoids) now follow theme colors

[2016/04/12]
New design for background of progress bars and sliders
Make use of improved contrast desktop effect

[2016/04/07]
New design for checkmarks and radio buttons
Sliders and progress bars use theme colors

[2016/03/27]
Fix Bluetooth tray icon

[2016/03/25]
Provide additional sizes for most network icons

[2016/03/12]
Add task manager progress overlay
Switch to versioning scheme aligned with Plasma

I've been working on it a lot since the last release and I was about to release an update yesterday, but something went wrong and I lost almost everything. I'm currently trying to repair what was lost and I should be able to release it in a couple of weeks.

I made the icons myself specially for the launchers I keep in the panel and a few others (like KMail), they're not part of any specific theme (those in the desktop widget are from Breeze though).

That's a very nice plasma theme. Could you add other icons like Clementine and Owncloud?
Thanks. :)

Okay, I gave it a shot and it seems Clementine doesn't use the icon provided by the plasma theme. If you know a plasma theme that overrides it, please tell me.

I think the same is true for the ownCloud client, but its monochrome icon (you can turn it on in the settings) integrates nicely already.

This theme looks really good! Can you suggest any window decorations or color schemes that match well with this desktop theme?

Thx, Sam

I personally use a dark color scheme based on Obsidian Coast, but Velours should work fine with a light color scheme as well. The Breeze widget theme doesn't work very well with dark color schemes though, it's clear it was designed with only light colors in mind. Oxygen looks fine either way.
As for window decorations, I stick with Oxygen or Breeze as they offer the most customization options (and Oxygen allows tabbed windows).

So I guess I don't really have anything in particular to suggest.

Top panel glitch

Confirmed, but only under Plasma 5. The plasma5 version of the theme run by Plasma 4 (which uses the exact same source svg for the panels) doesn't have that problem.

It also affects west panels.

It seems Plasma 5 doesn't draw the north-bottom element (but still allocates room for it) and ignores -mini elements altogether. The documentation for Plasma 5 mentions -mini prefixes so I don't think the feature was removed. I'll file a bug report.

In the meantime, you can replace widgets/panel-background.svg with https://www.dropbox.com/s/4bzmbnxf57mdusz/panel-background.svg?dl=1.
You'll lose the gradients but it'll work better.

Thanks for letting me know!

Yes the panel doesn't use north, south, east, west any more, just top topright, right, etc. The tasks actually use north, south, east west now in Plasma 5

Panels still use north- west- etc. prefixes for me. What changed since Plasma 4 is that you now need to include all nine parts of the panels, including the ones which are never displayed (like north-top, west-left, etc) or else it doesn't work properly.

Nope, even in the default theme it doesn't use north, south, east, west any more. I've been doing plasma 5 themes myself.

I just tested it and I can confirm north- etc. prefixes are respected under Plasma 5.4.3 and have been since at least 5.4.0.

See Marco Martin's response here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350190

-mini prefixes are deprecated, north-, west-, east- and south- are not, but they aren't displayed properly unless all parts for that prefix are in the file. The glitch reported by sumski was caused by that little detail. If e.g. north-topleft isn't present in the theme, then north-bottomleft isn't drawn. I fixed it by simply adding dummy elements for every missing id.
