## Recommendations

- For a more consistent look on Qt and KDE apps, please use this theme with the [Kvantum engine](https://github.com/tsujan/Kvantum). \

  Run `kvantummanager`, then choose and apply the **Materia** theme.

- Install [Papirus icon theme](https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme) for a more consistent and beautiful experience.

- Install and use these widgets: [Minimal Menu](https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1275285/) and [Digital Clock WL](https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1311422/)

- Change the System Settings view to **Icons View**

- Set the icon size for Toolbar and Main Toolbar to **16px**

- Set the border size to **No Borders** in Window Decoration settings

### Hacks for smaller screen resolutions

- Install the [Active Window Control](https://www.opendesktop.org/p/998910/) and [Application Menu](https://cgit.kde.org/plasma-workspace.git/tree/applets/appmenu) widgets, and move them to a panel. \

  (**NOTE:** Application Menu is already included with recent versions of KDE Plasma, so there is no need to install it manually.)

- Disable window buttons and titlebar on window decorations:

  - Open the theme's rc file (**Materiarc**, **Materia-Darkrc**, or **Materia-Lightrc**) on the Aurorae themes folder (this is usually located in **~/.local/share/aurorae/themes** or **/usr/share/aurorae/themes**) and change the following lines:

    ```

    ButtonHeight=0

    ButtonWidth=0

    TitleHeight=0

    TitleEdgeTop=0

    ```

  - To hide window buttons on GTK 3 apps, use the [GTK3-noCSD](https://github.com/PCMan/gtk3-nocsd) script

## Known issues

### Aurorae rendering bugs with NVIDIA graphics

On systems using the proprietary NVIDIA video driver, Aurorae window decorations [do not render properly](https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=384457) by default with all themes.

| **Wrong rendering** | **Correct rendering** |

|:--------------------|:----------------------|

| ![wrong-rendering](https://i.imgur.com/rS5OgPf.png) | ![right-rendering](https://i.imgur.com/5OKjULE.png) |

To fix that, use this config on **~/.Xresources**:

```

Xft.dpi:       96

Xft.antialias: true

Xft.hinting:   true

Xft.autohint:  false

Xft.hintstyle: hintslight

Xft.lcdfilter: lcddefault

Xft.rgba:      rgb

```

Restart your PC to apply these changes.

### Inconsistent styles in QML/Kirigami apps

Recent Qt and KDE apps now use QML or Kirigami — these do *NOT* fully support theming on *any* engine because more elements are *hardcoded*. Please do not submit new issues regarding such apps; we can't do anything to fix them.

Affects apps include, but are not limited to:

- Muon Discover

- Kirigami Gallery

- Ikona

- Alligator

- Kaidan

- Elisa

- KDE Itinerary

- KTrip

- Kirogi

- VVave (ex Babe)

- Keysmith

- Calindori

- KDE Connect SMS Module

- Some `systemsettings5` and `kcm` modules

- and more...
