Gnome-tweak-tool changes which file?

i can't change gnome3 window theme through ".config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini" and "/etc/gtk-3.0/settings.ini"
but gnome-tweak-tool could do it.
but which file had it changed ?

The settings are stored in a database for faster and safer access. You can edit them with the gsettings program. For example, to display the current value of the theme settings:
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences theme
To set a new value:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences theme 'Adwaita'

I've tried a pacman -Rn and reinstalling it.
Running gnome-tweak-tool from terminal shows no output.
Any suggestions?

Is GTK is up to date?
Have you tried commenting the offending line in tweakview.py?
Have you tried to make it print Gtk.Settings.get_default().props.gtk_decoration_layout right before the offending line, in order to check that it contains at least two elements?

No option to change Window Title Bar Font in gnome-tweak-tool

Hey there,
did a fresh install today on a Haswell-PC. But there's no option to change Window Title Bar Font in gnome-tweak-tool anymore? All the other options are there.
Is there a way to set the Window Title Bar Font elsewhere? Does someone know why this option was removed or is it due to my system somehow? I also don't see this option in the dconf-editor.
Gnome 3.8, all the latest updates, Intel Core i5 with Intel HD 4600 Graphics
Thanks,
oSIRus

Gnome-tweak-tool logo fix[commited upstream] alternate logos too

Hi everyone,
EDIT: Gnome has commited this icon upstream, so this is fixed. however, if you would like to use another one of my logo's for gnome-tweak-tool, just follow the guide using the correct .png file
I was mildy troubled by the logo in gnome-tweak-tool. the icon clearly was created on a white background, rather than using layers and transparency. because of this, if you are using any bg_color, other than white for your theme you end up with nasty white edges (how 1992 web experience - ish...lol). It's funny, because you are not really supposed to design logos, icons, or anything do do with a desktop/applications this way. - Especially, with transparency being pretty much a standard, everywhere...odd, but easily fixed
this is what i mean:
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/23/beforelogo.png
See, how even there are "stray - white - pixels" just below the image. yuck! hehehehe.
As I am using the Atolm-gtk3 theme - i really wanted to fix this, as it is an eye-sore and looked very unprofessional and dirty. So, i spent a few minutes to do just that! My revision of the Welcome Logo should now look good regardless of your color scheme.
Here is the after shot;
http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/2612/afterlogo.png
EDIT: look below at the next reply, as i have several versions, the one in this example still has white in the face, however, i have totally transparent one's as well...
How to Install
1. download my fixed logo, and save it to your desktop;
http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/2076/welcomefixed.png
2. Replace the original which you can do like so;
a. open a terminal, and type the following;
sudo cp '/home/*your-user-name*/Desktop/welcomefixed.png' '/usr/share/gnome-tweak-tool/welcome.png'
i'll probably pass this on to gnome too.
cheerz and enjoy

Look below, for my custom color version of the logo.

Gnome Tweak Tool - User theme

Upgrade Gnome-Tweak-Tool
Can't change Theme, because user theme extension is now "[email protected]"
and not "[email protected]"
It's fix in the file : gtweak/tweaks/tweak_shell.py whith
THEME_EXT_NAME = "[email protected]"
Thanks

trusktr wrote:@alexcortes and @Unia, Is it just me or do things seem a little discombobulated now with both gconf-editor and dconf-editor in the mix? Why not just keep one *-editor? It seems like this and many other little "issues" would be easier to catch with just one *-editor. What's the point of two?
Well yea I agree, but atm it's not going to happen. Anyway, since GS won't work with Catalyst for now I resorted to DWM and try to avoid all the gconf/dconf stuff. Works quite well

Python 2 is trying to import pyhon3 modules, gnome-tweak-tool broken

I can't start gnome-tweak-tool it complains
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: /usr/lib/libpyglib-gi-2.0-python3.so.0: undefined symbol: _Py_FalseStruct
It would appear that python2 is trying to import python3 modules. I also get this error with
>python2

Why is this happening!? I had a similar issue a while back with python2 trying to import a (different) python3 module when trying to install something from the AUR but that was
fixed by doing
export $PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages
as on login my PYTHONPATH is set as /usr/lib/python3.3/site-packages, however this did not fix the gnome-tweak-tool issue.
my python3 sys.path is

[Gnome 3] gnome-tweak-tool crashes after update

Todays update apparently adds config to edit the window borders as well as checking for 2 folders for themes / icons: ~/.themes and ~/.icons.
These folders were not available by default on my gnome 3 installation, shouldn't these directories be provided by metacity?

Probably should, but those two directories weren't there on my clean install. I just created .themes and .icons and restarted the application, and it worked. (Saw the bug report)
...and the fix has already been released per bugzilla.

Gnome tweak tool

While I know how to use the gnome-tweak-tool. I am curious as how I can remove the installed themes? currenlty I have a user .themes folder, but it seems that when I use the automatic install of a theme it installs to a different folder somewhere in usr/share (possibly)? If you might have any idea where these installations are added, that would be great. Thanks, Jon.

What do you mean the 'automatic install of a theme'? Do you mean installing a theme via pacman? or from some other tool?
From our Gnome wiki
/usr/share/themes/Adwaita/
/home/$USER/.themes/Adwaita
Looks like some GTK themes are in /usr/share/themes
you could also list the files installed by a theme package for example, (to see where its put the themes)
soif you did install a theme from pacman:
from our pacman wiki:
'To retrieve a list of the files installed by a package:'
pacman -Ql package_name

Gnome-tweak-tool python error

I installed gnome-tweak-tool and mesed around for a bit and it no longer works. When I run gnome-tweak-tool It gives the error
$ gnome-tweak-tool
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/gnome-tweak-tool", line 22, in <module>
import gi
I tried installing a version from git, and I think that only messed it up even more. I have no python experience, so im completly in the dark here. Any help/hint would be very much appreciated.
If you need any logs/information just ask.

is simple, very simple
you built that package manually, that's why is in /usr/local/bin/gnome-tweak-tool
get rid of it now and install that tool from our repos.
pacman -S gnome-tweak-tool
this is arch, not slackware. we do packages and install them with pacman to keep track of files.

Changing which files are opened automatically when opening a solution

When I open a solution, VS automatically opens various files in the editor. There must be a configuration setting somewhere in the solution that tells VS which files to open but I'm unable to find that setting. Anyone know where this setting
can be found?

It's in the .suo file.
If you have a Foo.sln then you will also have a (hidden) Foo.v12.suo file and that's where this information is stored.
The .suo is a binary file in an undisclosed format.
Solution User Options, I believe, is what .suo stands for. (At least, that's what I say in my head when I see .suo.)
It's user-specific and machine-specific, and therefore not something that should be committed to your revision control system.

Server host and domain name have changed, which files do I edit?

I just changed my Linux box server name and host name. I am going to edit the:
tnsnames.ora
sqlnet.ora
listener.ora
files to reflect the new host and domain name, are these the only files I need to edit?
Thanks!

OK here is my output when I try 2 different tnsping commands on my remote Linux box from my local PC:

How do I change which files are in the library?

Both my husband and I access iTunes under different login ids on one computer. I went into his iTunes to import a cd and discovered that although "his" music folder is the designated media folder, his iTunes is also displaying all of my library in his library. How do I change it so that only "his" music is displayed in his iTunes?

Album or Book?
If Album you can find the ones not already used:
File -> New Smart Album
Album -> is not -> Any

Gnome-tweak-tool - energy - lid close

...there is no option to adjust anything anymore...right?

Right. The option has been removed.
