The generated CSS is then transformed into a gresource file +during gtk build and used at runtime in a non-legible or editable form. + +It is very likely your change will happen in the _common.scss file. That's where +all the widget selectors are defined. Here's a rundown of the "supporting" +stylesheets, that are unlikely to be the right place for a drive by stylesheet +fix: + +_colors.scss - global color definitions. We keep the number of defined + colors to a necessary minimum, most colors are derived + from a handful of basics. It covers both the light variant + and the dark variant. + +_colors-public.scss - SCSS colors exported through gtk to allow for 3rd party + apps color mixing. + +_drawing.scss - drawing helper mixings/functions to allow easier + definition of widget drawing under specific context. This + is why Adwaita isn't 15000 LOC. + +_common.scss - actual definitions of style for each widget. This is + where you are likely to add/remove your changes. + +You can read about SASS at http://sass-lang.com/documentation/. Once you make +your changes to the _common.scss file, GTK will rebuild the CSS files. -- cgit v1.2.1
