sed
):[[ -s userChrome.css ]] || echo >> userChrome.css

Enabling optional features
Open userChrome.css
with a text editor and follow instructions to enable extra features. Keep in mind this file might change in future versions and your configuration will be lost. You can copy the @imports you want to enable to a new file named customChrome
directly in your chrome
directory if you want it to survive updates. Remember all @imports must be at the top of the file, before other statements.
Known bugs
CSD have sharp corners
See upstream bug.
Icons color broken with gnome-icons.css
Icons might appear black where they should be white on some systems. I have no idea why, but you can adjust them in the theme/colors/light.css
or theme/colors/dark.css
files, look for --gnome-icons-hack-filter
var and play with css filters.
Development
If you wanna mess around the styles and change something, you might find these things useful.
To use the Inspector to debug the UI, open the developer tools (F12) on any page, go to options, check both of those:
- Enable browser chrome and add-on debugging toolboxes
- Enable remote debugging
Now you can close those tools and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+I to Inspect the browser UI.
Also you can inspect any GTK3 application, for example type this into a terminal and it will run Epiphany with the GTK Inspector, so you can check the CSS styles of its elements too.
