Style snippets

TabX is customisable through its settings interface, but there are many more things you can do! Copy and paste those style snippets in their dedicated section of the settings to unlock some new possibilities.

I want my own greeting

Sets a custom greeting phrase instead of Good Morning, Good Afternoon, etc.

#greetings:before {
  content: "Your custom greeting";
  visibility: visible;
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  text-align: center;
  text-transform: none;
}

#greetings {
  visibility: hidden;
  position: relative;
}

I need more vertical space

By default, TabX reserves some space for the footer area (background credits and settings icon) so that the rest of the interface won’t overflow on it. This snippet gets rid of that reserved space and will give more vertical room to your widgets. It can help if you have a small screen and lots of widgets, but might result in overflowing issues in some situations.

footer {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 0;
}

#interface {
  max-height: 100vh;
}

I don’t care about artist exposure

Hides Unsplash photo author credits.

#credit {
  display: none;
}

I like my backgrounds fast.

Faster background transition on startup.

#background_overlay {
  transition: transform 0.2s, opacity 0s;
}

Widgets are too low!

Makes Widgets higher.

#interface #widgets {
  justify-content: flex-start;
}

Now they’re too high…

Makes Widgets lower.

#interface #widgets {
  justify-content: flex-end;
  padding-bottom: 2em;
}

Some site icons come as PNGs with a transparent background. This snippet will remove TabX’s default white background for links and make these icons shine.

#interface #widgets #linkblocks li.block a img {
  background: transparent;
  box-shadow: unset;
}

#interface #widgets #linkblocks li.block a img:hover {
  box-shadow: unset;
}

Can be useful if you only need Quick Links icons and want them to be vertically centered.

#interface #widgets #linkblocks li.block a > span {
  display: none;
}

Hides everything but Quick Links (and centers them).

#interface #time,
#interface #main,
#interface #sb_container,
#interface #notes_container,
#interface #quotes_container {
  display: none;
}

Unicolor is the new meta

Makes background a uniform color. Replace ‘rebeccapurple’ with your color of choice.

#background {
  opacity: 0;
}
#background_overlay {
  background-color: rebeccapurple;
}

23 what, carrots?

Adds a C after the temperature.

#tempContainer p::after {
  content: "C";
}

I like my clocks thick

Makes analog clock thicker.

#interface {
  --anlg-w: 4px; /* Change size here */
}
#interface #time #time-container #analogClock #center {
  width: calc(var(--anlg-w) * 4);
  height: calc(var(--anlg-w) * 4);
}
#interface #time #time-container #analogClock {
  border-width: calc(var(--anlg-w) * 2);
}
#interface #time #time-container #analogClock span {
  width: calc(var(--anlg-w) * 2);
  margin-left: calc(var(--anlg-w) * -1);
}
#interface #time #time-container #analogClock span#analogSeconds {
  width: var(--anlg-w);
}

Left or right aligned interface

Aligns interface to the sides instead of center.

#interface {
  width: 70%;
  margin: auto;

  /* Remove the one you DON'T want */

  /* Right */
  --flex: flex-end;
  --text: right;

  /* Left */
  --flex: flex-start;
  --text: left;
}

#interface #main,
#interface #time {
  align-items: var(--flex);
}

#interface #greetings,
#interface #weather,
#interface #widgets #quotes_container,
#interface #widgets #quotes_container #author {
  text-align: var(--text);
}

#interface #main #weather #tempContainer {
  justify-content: var(--flex);
}

#interface #widgets {
  align-self: var(--flex);
}

#interface #widgets #linkblocks,
#interface #widgets #sb_container {
  margin: 0;
  align-self: var(--flex);
}

Rolex 😎

Makes analog clock look like a Rolex.

* #interface #time #time-container #analogClock,
* #interface #time #time-container #analogClock:hover {
  border-width: 1px;
  background-size: cover;
  background-image: url("https://tabx.pro/rolex.png") !important;
}
