Description

@JoshStrobl

There is a multitude of documents that use outdated references, screenshots, instructions, etc. for Budgie (such as showing Budgie Settings in Raven as opposed to the dedicated app).

If anyone is interested in updating the documentation before I can get around to it, consider this the discussion issue and reference point for items which need to be changed, how screenshots should be taken, settings used, etc.

🥇 Items that need updating:

  • Changing Background configuration/changing-background/en.md
  • Configuring Date and Time configuration/configuring-date-and-time/en.md
  • Configuring Sound and Sound Devices configuration/configuring-sound-and-sound-devices/en.md
  • Enabling Desktop Icons configuration/enabling-desktop-icons/en.md
  • Enabling Workspaces configuration/enabling-workspaces/en.md

Note: The above referenced documents are the Markdown files and not the associated image files. The screenshots are in the respective folders in imgs/. You may find in some documentation that only updating the screenshot is necessary, and that's perfectly okay.

✔️ Screenshot specification:

  • You should be using the default theming, namely:
    • Adapta for GTK theme
    • Papirus for Icon theme
    • Breeze for Cursor Theme
    • Sections which show off specific parts of the panel should be using the default as well. If you're unsure and you're willing to drop your pinned apps, follow this doc.
  • Language should be set to English (US).
  • Minimal cropping of the image should occur and your files should be saved as JPG. If you're using GNOME Screenshot, open up GIMP and convert. Keep 100% quality, I can compress it post-merge, and refrain from over-cropping (I can always crop it further post-merge).
    • However: Refrain from taking full screen screenshots and maximizing applications.

⭐ Bonus points (not necessary):

  • Add more relevant Budgie documentation based on functionality exposed in the Budgie Settings app, such as basics to Budgie and applet configuration. Budgie documentation should go in budgie/ and create screenshot folders as necessary (see other existing folders for examples).
