Presets

github-actions[bot] edited this page Sep 26, 2026 · 2 revisions

Some apps ship flavor variants — presets layer between defaults and your __custom__ files, so switching never touches your own tweaks.

Built-in official presets:

  • kitty:
    • default: standard 90% opacity
    • transparent: 75% higher translucency flavor
  • niri:
    • default: minimalist frameless look (default)
    • glow: enables 2px outline and 28px soft diffused ambient glow (improves focus visibility across tiled windows)
    • glow-material-you: focus glow follows Noctalia's active Material You wallpaper palette (dynamically re-rendered in real time)

The preset architecture also supports modular Parts slots (e.g. glow and effects in niri), allowing full preset switching as well as granular piece-by-piece overlay.
