it's a king of unique, because it contains only 'edje' code and no images at all. I'll add 'e_modules' support only if demand exist, because 'pixelart' is not one of my strongest skills :).
1) settled more or less proper display variant of window border menu... (slightly changed for E-DR17-16.999.043) 2) changed look of 'checkbox' and 'radio' buttons. 3) licenced under GPL :) (seems that they both work as they should) 4) more compact menu layout is made, may be even too much 'compact' one...
Known Bugs:
1) some may experience a king of 'positioning' issues with E cursor. it's mostly because the theme is settled to the default size value of 32 pixels. go to the 'Enlightenment Configuration -> Appearance -> Mouse Cursor -> Advanced' and play a bit with the size starting from 32 pixels (the default). hope soon you discover desired focus settings. but it's not likely that you ever notice this 'bug'.
2) some icons (the animated ones mostly) are not fit within their area. working on it. the solution could be in fixation of 'titlebar' part for all borders (to prevent border size change depending on the fonts used in titlebar) with a strict 'icon container' positioning and proper size limit.
3) folder and file icons in EFL (file manager) are ugly. that's right. working on it. looking for a proper font symbols for both of them. theme itself in 'heavy alpha' stage - sorry.
4) no support for e_modules (they're still a bit 'out of style'). Will make it only if demand exist (don't see it still).
5) all "bugs" with gradients are RESOLVED IN CURRENT CVS! HUGE THANKS goes to Jose Gonzalez and Raster.
6) ETK theme has some minor bugs related to the 'fixed' parts. Digging...
Hey! Funny you should release this, as I just started work on a pure EDJE theme myself. Heres a couple of issues. 1. As raster said, theres no real performance gain from using no images. It still takes time to render rectangles in EVAS. Only thing is, you need to make very small rectangles to make sure its less pixels to draw.
2. Theres bugs in the gradient drawing in EVAS. After showing my theme to a couple of folks, they say that the gradients are simply ugly little thatched boxes and so, you dont get the desired look. It totally suck, but hey, thats what happens when you theme something thats not even in an alpha stage. As for drawing thing in EDJE, Ive used edje_editor to make some basic things that work like the start module animation. It works, but it doesnt save which is a bummer. You can just copy all the rel/offsets from edje_editor to your text editor tho to get the same effect. Heres what Ive done so far... at the moment the code is Creative Commons but once its all done itll be GPL. http://members.iinet.net.au/~haste/e17/edje.edj
1. >>As raster said, theres no real performance gain from using no images.
I'd like to check it by myself when this theme became a stable one. Right now it's just a working mockup. At least borders should be optimized. Just think. Lets say we've got a rectangle 400x400. And we've got some images: 400x400, 200x200, 600x600. Our goal is to display this rectangle centered on screen. I'm not sure that images could decrease even in a single particular case the overall resource usage (memory, cpu, resources required to move/scale/resize this rectangle etc.).
2. >> Theres bugs in the gradient drawing in EVAS.
Please show me the bug in my theme.
Thanks for your comment.
P.S. could you also show what exactly in your 'edje' you consider as BUG in 'evas' gradient drawing? I'm surprised to hear that 'evas' has a bugs in engine.... Where's appropriate bugreport/s? Prove it at least....

As you can see, its really quite drastic. I cant pin point the difference between the working and non-working machines either but Ill try finding it and making it work. I showed raster and he simply said EVAS has bugs when rendering gradients and told me to specifically stay away from radial gradients since they are heavily math dependant when scaling. He also said that the only real difference you would get is a little less RAM usage as EVAS is really optimised for drawing images. I imagine gradient would add a little overhead too. But like you said, Im still cautiously optimistic that a pure edje theme would be faster to some degree. Ill file it as a bug now anyway.
Or ... something is wrong with the code itself? :) (just check the difference between yours and pastebin-ed)
>> the only real difference you would get is a little less RAM usage
This is also known as optimization.
>> told me to specifically stay away from radial gradients since they are heavily math dependant when scaling
Hehe... Pin'em to non-scaled rect, don't scale, don't resize... Think E damn it! (c)
Also note, that I'm banned from #e IRC till the end of my life, and all I say is nothing more than 'my humble opinion' (c)
P.S. don't you think that fonts like 'DejaVu' or 'Liberation' could be more to the point in menu? or non 'utf' shit is the only 'artistic' way and user is forced to learn how to change that crap?
http://bugs.enlightenment.org/show_bug.cgi?id=450 Theres the bug. I got someone to confirm the nasty gradients in Simplicity too that had the same problem rendering in my little theme. Im trying to single out the cause since its happening quite randomly as far as I can tell.
Did you ask 'mekius' to check the pastebin-ed code? Should be a kind of regularity in there. If pastebin-ed results could fix that - it'd be nice 'starting point'...
There are some problems in the configuration dialog with 'stars' shown instead of icons in places where you really need icons. For example the basic shelf configuration dialog (top right bottom left look all the same). Another example would be the RGB orientation (rotation) in the screen resolution settings.
I'll refit all icons a bit later. Theme itself is "NO IMAGES ALLOWED", so it's a bit of 'puzzle' to find appropriate symbol or to draw an image by 'evas' itself.
updated E17 and unified theme. more compact menu layout introduced for E17 Configuration Panel, menu and border menu.
P.S. just added new text row backgrounds for Simplicity-unified theme. It's minor adjustment. Dunno what shoud left as a final result. Advise needed :).
