Window decorations for xfwm4 don't match GTK theme.

The first screenshot shows the window decorations in Thunar (xfwm4), while the second screenshot shows the window decorations in normal GTK apps (evince as an example).

That's the original Colloid theme styles, on which Catppuccin is based. The packaged versions must need updating to include the built assets.

Currently, the xfwm4 assets require Inkscape to be built.

If you're installing via the python install script, as long as you have Inkscape installed, you can supply argument --recreate-asset to generate them with your usual command, for example I used python install.py mocha -a flamingo --tweaks normal --recreate-asset -d ~/.themes.

I always installed these themes manually (from the releases page), never tried the python script. However, I tried it just now and it didn't work, showing an error :

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/randa/Downloads/Themes/Catppuccin/gtk/install.py", line 12, in <module> from scripts.ctp_colors import ctp_colors, get_all_accent File "/home/randa/Downloads/Themes/Catppuccin/gtk/scripts/ctp_colors.py", line 1, in <module> from catppuccin import Flavour ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'catppuccin'

I did follow the instructions properly for setting everything up and even tried fixing it myself, but am just a beginner in python.

@BrunetteGeekGirl The module it's complaining about is the one pulled in from requirements.txt.

Are you definitely running pip install -r requirements.txt - and more importantly, is it running without throwing you back any errors?

@syrupmoon Thank you for your help!
I found out where it went wrong, I use Fish shell as my default, and when sourcing the env I did it in bash and accidently closed the bash session without realizing it and then tried install.py in a diferent one.
I tried again just now and everything worked out perfectly ^^.
Thank you again, I learned a lot from this.
