## Overview
The Clearlooks-Phenix project (formerly known as Clearwaita) aims at creating a GTK3 port of Clearlooks, the default theme for Gnome 2. Style is also included for GTK2, Unity and for Metacity, Openbox and Xfwm4 window managers.
Here are screenshots (if applicable, click to download the original image):

## Requirements
- Requirements for Clearlooks-Phenix 1: packages `gtk2-engines` (if GTK2 applications are used) and `gnome-themes-standard`.
- Requirements for Clearlooks-Phenix 2: packages `gtk2-engines` (if GTK2 applications are used), `gnome-themes-standard` and `gtk3-engines-unico`.
- Requirements for Clearlooks-Phenix 3: package `gtk2-engines` (if GTK2 applications are used).
## Installation
Regardless of the installation method chosen, the theme must be selected once the installation is complete:
- On Gnome: with [gnome-tweak-tool](https://live.gnome.org/GnomeTweakTool), by setting *Theme > Window theme* and *Theme > GTK+ theme*, or in a terminal:
dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/wm/preferences/theme \'Clearlooks-Phenix\'
dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/interface/gtk-theme \'Clearlooks-Phenix\'
- On Xfce: by going to *Settings > Appearence > Style* in the main menu for the GTK theme, and to *Settings > Window Manager > Style* for the Xfwm4 theme, or in a terminal:
xfconf-query -s Clearlooks-Phenix -c xfwm4 -p /general/theme
xfconf-query -s Clearlooks-Phenix -c xsettings -p /Net/ThemeName
### Manually
**Manual installation ensures you get the latest version of the theme.** See below for other installation methods.
- Download the appropriate version according to your situation:
- for GTK 3.0 and 3.2: [download Clearlooks-Phenix 1](https://gitorious.org/projets-divers/clearlooks-phenix/archive/v1.zip);
- for GTK 3.4: [download Clearlooks-Phenix 2](https://gitorious.org/projets-divers/clearlooks-phenix/archive/v2.zip).
- for GTK 3.6 and newer: [download Clearlooks-Phenix 3](https://gitorious.org/projets-divers/clearlooks-phenix/archive/master.zip).
To find your GTK version:
- You can check in your package manager the version of the package `libgtk-3-0`.
- If you use Ubuntu, here's a correspondence between its versions and those of GTK (for a default installation of Ubuntu):
- Ubuntu 11.10: GTK 3.2
- Ubuntu 12.04: GTK 3.4
- Ubuntu 12.10: GTK 3.6
- Extract the archive.
- Rename the extracted folder to `Clearlooks-Phenix`.
- Copy the folder `Clearlooks-Phenix` in one of the following two locations:
- `~/.themes/` for the current user;
- `/usr/share/themes/` for all users, including style for programs ran with root privileges (e.g. Synaptic).
### Arch Linux
An [AUR package](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=60380) is maintained by eworm.
### Debian
The package [`clearlooks-phenix-theme`](http://packages.debian.org/sid/clearlooks-phenix-theme) can be installed on Debian unstable.
### Gentoo
See the following package:
http://packages.gentoo.org/package/x11-themes/clearlooks-phenix
### Ubuntu
The package [`clearlooks-phenix-theme`](http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=clearlooks-phenix-theme) can be installed on Ubuntu 12.10 and newer.
## Configuration
### Wallpaper
The wallpaper used for the Gnome 3 desktop screenshot is available in the folder `wallpapers`.
### Icons
The icon theme used for the same screenshot is Mist, installed with the package [`gnome-themes`](http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/gnome-themes), under LGPL. However, this package is no longer available with last Ubuntu versions. Here's an easy way to install Mist:
- [Download the archive of the Mist icon theme.](http://www.jpfleury.net/site/fichiers/Mist.tar)
- Extract the archive.
- Copy the folder `Mist` in one of the following two locations:
- `~/.icons/` for the current user;
- `/usr/share/icons/` for all users.
- Then, choose Mist:
- on Gnome: with gnome-tweak-tool by setting *Theme > Icon theme*;
- on Xfce: by going to *Settings > Appearence > Icons* in the main menu.
Also, [color schemes](http://opendesktop.org/usermanager/search.php?username=DDZ&action=contents) were made by DDZ to fit with Clearlooks-Phenix.
### Desktop managed by Nautilus
By default, the font color on a desktop managed by Nautilus is black. To set it to white, open the file `gtk-3.0/applications.css` with a text editor, find the code relative to Nautilus:
/************
* Nautilus *
************/
/*
COMMENTED
CSS
CODE
*/
and uncomment it, as follows:
/************
* Nautilus *
************/
UNCOMMENTED
CSS
CODE
To get a custom color, change the color directly in the file `gtk-3.0/applications.css`.
### Color variants
From Clearlooks-Phenix 2, it's very easy to create color variants of the GTK3 theme. Only a few color declarations must be changed in the file `gtk-3.0/gtk-variant.css`.
About button borders, they come from SVG files. [Inkscape](http://inkscape.org/) can be used to modify them. For more details, see the screencast [Utiliser Inkscape pour modifier la couleur de la bordure d'un bouton](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWJHDS5hQsw). A Bash script is also shipped with Clearlooks-Phenix to assist the modification of SVG and PNG files. To use it, copy the file `doc/images.sh.txt`, paste it in the root folder of your development theme (same emplacement as the file `index.theme`) and rename it `images.sh`. Then, change variables in the first section of the file according to the color variant desired and run the script in a terminal (`bash images.sh`). The package `imagemagick` is required.
### Window buttons layout
If after installing or updating Ubuntu, the window buttons are on the left side, but you want them to the right, run the following command in a terminal:
gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/general/button_layout --type string ":minimize,maximize,close"
