Hi,
Nice to see movement towards a Sway spin, finally. Although I am kinda satisfied with rudimentary settings (tty login and no-fancy apps like aerc email client, and claws-mail for example).
Eventually, there is more to a Spin than few individual preferences. I discovered Wofi (the Rofi-like launcher built for wlroots). I want give it a try but I don't know where to start. I learned Rofi from thinkering with published themes and configuration files.
Is anyone here using Wofi? How did you do it?
Regards Onyeibo

Hi Onyeibo, I am using Wofi too and looking at other people's files is how I configure it bit by bit, also `man 5 wofi`.

How convenient, Oğuz. Perhaps you could pass your config and styling files for a case study, could you?
Regards Onyeibo
~/.config/wofi/config file is:
mode=drun,run run-always_parse_args=true term=foot allow_images=true hide_scroll=true insensitive=true prompt= height=40% width=20%
~/.config/wofi/style.css file is very basic with black & white colors:
#input { background-color: #1c1c1c; border: 2px solid #bcbcbc; border-radius: 0; color: #bcbcbc; }
#scroll { background-color: #1c1c1c; border: 2px solid #bcbcbc; border-top-width: 0; color: #6c6c6c; }
#entry:selected { background-color: #5f87af; color: #bcbcbc; }

Thanks again for the sample, Oğuz.
I observe that the config file affects my wofi menu as expected. Whereas the style.css file has no effect. I have tweaked CSS file many times. I have tried replacing it with other samples. Nothing changes. I see a boring menu with white background. Nothing like what is described by the CSS files.
I must be missing something. Perhaps the packaging specifies a different path for the stylesheet or, my wofi is broken. Any ideas?
I am running Sway on Fedora Custom Operating System (built-up from Minimal Install)

* Make sure the path is correct which is $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wofi/style.css (XDG_CONFIG_HOME defaults to $HOME/.config if it is unset).
* Try to specify it manually with -s option from the terminal and see if it works or gives any errors.
Other than that, I have no idea. I also installed it same as you and it works fine on my machine.

Thanks a lot!

I was able to spot the cause of the anomaly. Thanks for the above tip. I had a faulty entry in my sway config file.
