- <p>By default xfce is a very plain desktop and looks kind of old and
- shitty (like this website), but it can look and feel great with some
- work!</p>
- <ul>
- <li>Install nicer icons like papirus, can never go wrong with
- papirus icons. then set them as your icon theme</li>
- <li>Install a better theme. Some good ones are:
- <ul>
- <li>
- <a href="https://drasite.com/flat-remix-gtk" target=
- "_blank">flat-remix</a>
- </li>
- <li>
- <a href="https://www.xfce-look.org/p/1681313/" target=
- "_blank">gruvbox</a>
- </li>
- <li>
- <a href="https://www.xfce-look.org/p/2098041" target=
- "_blank">DoorMaker</a>
- </li>
- <li>
- <a href="https://www.xfce-look.org/p/1394325" target=
- "_blank">BaZik</a>
- </li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>Install kvantum and kvantum-qt5 to change qt themes. Add this
- to <code>/etc/environment</code> for kvantum to work:<br>
- <code>QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=kvantum</code></li>
- <li>Whisker menu for those who want a more modern menu:
- <ul>
- <li>Install whisker menu for a way better menu</li>
- <li>Go into the panel settings to remove the old one and
- change it to whisker menu.</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>Enable clipman as one of the startup apps for a kde like
- clipboard.</li>
- <li>Make some nicer keybinds:
- <ul>
- <li>Bind <code>xfce4-popup-whiskermenu</code> to something
- like alt+f1 than use xcape to bind it to super to get around
- the xfce super key bug. Add <code>xcape -e
- 'Super_L=Alt_L|F1'</code> as a startup application or whatever
- dummy keybind you binded to whiskermenu. Sadly xfce cant bind
- anything to super key without breaking other shortcuts that
- use super so we have to use xcape in a painful hacky way.</li>
- <li>Bind "super+v" to <code>xfce4-clipman-history</code> to
- make it feel more like the kde clipboard</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>Make new windows show up at the mouse by going into the
- "Window ManagerTweaks" "Placement" tab, turning the minimum size
- all the way up and chaning the place windows position to under the
- mouse pointer.</li>
- <li>Go into "Window Manager" and set a cooler window style and
- more sane shortcuts for virtual desktops.</li>
- <li>Go into "Window Manager Tweaks" and fuck around with the
- compositor settings for cool clear things.</li>
- </ul>

- <h2>Rofi in xfce</h2>The default xfce appfinder been causing me
- issues lately so I decided to switch to rofi.<br>
- <br>
- To make rofi work with my workflow I like to add some binds for it:
- <ul>
- <li>Bind <code>rofi -show drun -icon-theme "Papirus-Dark"
- -show-icons</code> to super+d</li>
- <li>Bind <code>rofi -show run</code> to super+r</li>
- <li>Bind <code>rofi -show window -icon-theme "Papirus-Dark"
- -show-icons</code> to super+w</li>
- </ul>There is much more I could use rofi for but this is all I need.
