Thanks. I wasn't aware of the optional SBarlogo. I will adjust the themes that I made recently.

Wow! Is that the os4_lavender blue theme? It looks great on AROS One!

It looks good on Icaros Desktop also but the horizontal and vertical slider knobs are not centered correctly. That's probably because of Dopus Magellan. But it looks great on AROS One using Wanderer.

In the Prefs drawer the Appearance Prefs can potentially be used to set the window theme, cursor image & background image. We just need to add a couple Zune gadgets for Cursor & Image as well as a couple Browse buttons for them.

That may work with Wanderer but I'm not sure about Magellan. I suppose I'll make the changes then compile it so we can test.  ;)

That way we can set everything in one go rather than setting individual Prefs.

Can AROS use a startup sound or a chime sound at boot?

Yes you can run the sound "for its duration", verify the user-startup of AROS One, find the string at the bottom of the script !
This is the command used by AROS one:

Run >Nil: C:PlayMus SYS:Prefs/Presets/BootSounds/IntroSound.wav

Awesome! Thanks.

I'll give that a try.

Finally a new theme style!

AROS Modern Blue theme is ready.

The grippers on the horizontal & vertical slider knobs have changed style. The arrow gadgets & size gadget now use black outline. And there are no separators between gadgets on the window titlebar.

Thanks to AMIGASYSTEM the screen titlebar now has a replaceable screen bar logo.

Yes I install it and complete it with Wallpapers, this is the complete theme of your OS4-Green !

I found the solution for DigiClock, now it is in transparency :)

Also created the Complete Theme for OS4-Modern Blue for AROS One x86/68k (renamed so that OS4s are together in the list)

Wow! Look at that. DigiClock looks nice too!

It's the star of the show. AROS One looks good in blue.  ;)

I suppose the next one will be called "OS4-Plastic". It's Plastic because of the narrower slider knobs & thinner container as well as the convex Titlebar.

This one was called Modern because of the cleaner titlebar and the black outline for the arrow gadgets & size gadget.

Looking very nice! The wallpaper, OS4 window theme, and everything go together nicely! Great job!  :D

Would it be possible to move DigiClock onto the screen's titlebar to be more visible (kind of like what macOS and Ubuntu do)?

Maybe you were asking AMIGASYSTEM...

DigiClock opens a tiny window so it can draw in the rasterport. Usually it's a flat grey color. But maybe transparent in the Screen Titlebar may work.

The new theme style OS4-Plastic Blue is almost ready.

It's called "Plastic" because of the convex Titlebar. The horizontal & vertical slider knobs are thinner. The container is also narrower. The titlebar has been redesigned & the Titlebar gadgets have been updated to the plastic style.

On AROS everything is simple if you have the tools, almost all clocks on AROS as on AMiGA have in the Toltype Icons the ability to set X/Y and store the Position.

Here is an Ubuntu Theme created by me for AROS One with DigiClock stored on the top bar:

Would you mind sharing it by posting a zip file here?  ;D

The screenshot doesn't do it justice. I'm sure it looks better.
