Hi all,
Recently i’ve installed CachyOS with Hyprland.When i tried to change through rofi-theme-selector the rofi-theme, i picked one, but even if i’ve used the recommended keybindings Alt-a nothing changed.
Anyone faced with the same issue?

Hey Claudiu,
probably this happens because the “XDG_DATA_DIRS” are not set the right way.
To be honest, i don’t know hot to fix this issue.
But a workaround that i use, that gives you easy access to your theme, for further adjustments to your liking, is this:
run rofi-theme-selector
select a theme you like.
search your wanted theme in
/usr/share/rofi/themes
and/or
~/.local/share/rofi/themes
copy your theme to
~/.config/rofi
open
~/.config/rofi/config.rasi
- If there is no config you can create on with:
rofi -dump-config > ~/.config/rofi/config.rasi
Add the following line at the end:
@theme "YOURTHEME.rasi"
If you think about changing some config settings you could also import a specific config at the end:
@import "YOURSPECIALCONF.rasi"
This way, you can tweak your theme and also safe your version along your other configs in one place.

Many thanks for your response @luminoucid ! And even if not work your solution, i’ll take a look in other tutorials
L.E.
@luminoucid finally i’ve changed the theme; the problem is why the keybindings not work properly, but this is another topic. Once again, many thanks for the advice!
