Palette

With these configuration options, you can customize
the color palette of your status bar.

Each color can be a simple hex color like #228800 or an
object that defines:

  • A base hex color
  • Two optional variants of that color (a strong one and a weak one)
  • An optional text color to use with that base color

If the strong and weak variants are not provided, they will be auto-generated.
If no text color is provided, the default text color will be used.

Example​

[appearance.background_color]
base = "#448877"
strong = "#448888"
weak = "#448855"
text = "#ffffff"

Palette Colors​

The following are the colors that make up the palette:

  • background_color: Used as the background color for all status bar components
  • primary_color: Used for elements like buttons or slider handles
  • secondary_color: Used for borders and slider tracks
  • success_color: Used for success indicators
  • danger_color: Used for danger messages or danger states
    (the weak version is used for warning states)
  • text_color: Used as the default text color

Workspace Colors​

The following colors are used for the workspaces module.

You can specify which color to use for workspace indicators based on
the monitor to which a workspace is attached.

For example, if workspace 1 is attached to monitorA, the first color will be used;
if workspace 2 is attached to monitorB, the second color will be used, and so on.

Use the workspace_colors field for regular workspaces, and
special_workspace_colors for special workspaces.

If special_workspace_colors is not defined, workspace_colors will be used.
If neither workspace_colors is defined nor a color exists for a given monitor,
the primary_color will be used.
