re: HiQDock: I’m the developer and I’m a private 3rd-party developer.
The icons in the dock are completely the user’s choice (and can be different or the same as the icon shown in the Tracker and the rest of the Haiku ecosystem).
I changed the Deskbar’s logo using quickres and i set the Beos Decorator for the windows.
Wallpaper made with WonderBrush: Maybe Haiku does have wallpaper
Here’s my workstation… using a Haiku backdrop from the same thread quoted above. I notice several people love replicants/customizations – it seems I keep a rather spartan desktop, and hide everything inside the ‘stowed’ (home) folder.
I have to admit it’d be sorely needed. Something like the Appearance Manager on Mac OS 8.5 - 9.2, with an added Dark Mode to it. Once I figure out how to apply the preferences to disk, it’d be fun to work on this in the future.
If you click in “Show Options” you must see the diferent configurations for Deskbar, etc. You can customize each option and then, save all under a “theme”.
In any case, it’s true that the ThemeManager needs some more love
How make “ThemManager” work? I have installed themes from Zeta, but I can not change or edit, or add anything (all buttons in apps gui are inactive). I only can to switch between themes. Also zeta themes are only partially supported (but this not big deal, if I will able to edit them).
New screenshot, with new wallpaper which I made by myself on Haiku, using Mandelbrot (the fractal generator) and Wonderbrush (click on image to enlarge)
