<cat>Dev.UI</cat> <title>SourceScheme</title> <note> This page is best read by those pretty familiar with garrysmod already, New and Junior Developers are **NOT** encourage to _MODIFY_ these files without having a proper understanding of not only how source games handle their files but also how garrysmod itself handles its filesystem as modifying these files without proper due diligence can break the game in unexpected ways.</note> <warning> Modifying these files are not apart of the addon system which means there are very limited or no safeguards, Before doing anything ensure you have an unedited version of the file you can restore should your edits not be fixable.</warning> # What is the SourceScheme File The `SourceScheme.res` file found [HERE](https://github.com/Facepunch/garrysmod/blob/master/garrysmod/resource/SourceScheme.res) this file is a [Valve KeyValues](https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/KeyValues) format document that defines VGUI panels. Similar files include ChatScheme, ClientScheme and LoadingDialogVAC. There may be more but at the time of writing these are the other ones I see. # Why Customize it? Above all else, there is absolutely no **NEED** to customize file. the game runs and functions perfectly with the regular file shipped to game. However with that being said, modifying these files can allow for some customization of panels you cant access through Derma. In this file that's most notably the Console and the Options Menu panels. # File Structure The first value is the `Scheme` key, this will be the root key in which all other keys will need to be stored. ## Colors The first subsection within the file, this will contain all the color variables that we will use in the following subsection of `BaseSettings` The default colors contained within this section are | Color Name | RGBA Value | Image Color | | --- | :---: | --- |⤶ | White | 255 255 255 255 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51ec7447ad9a.png" size="199" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | OffWhite | 221 221 221 255 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51ec7e558a7d.png" size="200" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | DullWhite | 190 190 190 255 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51ec9bd42804.png" size="202" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | Orange | 255 155 0 255 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51ecb0530448.png" size="200" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | TransparentBlack | 0 0 0 128 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51eccd298761.png" size="193" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | Black | 0 0 0 255 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51eced7bfa4e.png" size="198" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | Blank | 0 0 0 0 | |⤶ | GMod_BG_Opaque | 108 111 114 250 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51ed1401c1d8.png" size="201" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | GMod_BG | 108 111 114 0 | |⤶ | GMod_WhiteBlank | 255 255 255 0 | |⤶ | SteamLightGreen | 157 194 80 255 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51ed5b95fddc.png" size="200" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | AchievementsLightGrey | 79 79 79 255 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51ed71cef9f1.png" size="198" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | AchievementsDarkGrey | 55 55 55 255 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51ed985da823.png" size="198" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | AchievementsInactiveFG | 130 130 130 255 | <image src="aaf9e/8dc51edaf881a6f.png" size="197" name="image.png" /> |⤶ | RGBA | Preview | Name | |:----:|:-------:|:-----|⤶ | `255` `255` `255` `255` | ![White] | `White`⤶ | `221` `221` `221` `255` | ![OffWhite] | `OffWhite` ⤶ | `190` `190` `190` `255` | ![DullWhite] | `DullWhite`⤶ | `255` `155` ` 0` `255` | ![Orange] | `Orange` ⤶ | ` 0` ` 0` ` 0` `128` | ![TransparentBlack] | `TransparentBlack` ⤶ | ` 0` ` 0` ` 0` `255` | ![Black] | `Black` ⤶ | ` 0` ` 0` ` 0` ` 0` | ![Blank] | `Blank` ⤶ | `108` `111` `114` `250` | ![GMod_BG_Opaque] | `GMod_BG_Opaque` ⤶ | `108` `111` `114` ` 0` | ![GMod_BG] | `GMod_BG` ⤶ | `255` `255` `255` ` 0` | ![GMod_WhiteBlank] | `GMod_WhiteBlank` ⤶ | `157` `194` ` 80` `255` | ![SteamLightGreen] | `SteamLightGreen` ⤶ | ` 79` ` 79` ` 79` `255` | ![AchievementsLightGrey] | `AchievementsLightGrey` ⤶ | ` 55` ` 55` ` 55` `255` | ![AchievementsDarkGrey] | `AchievementsDarkGrey` ⤶ | `130` `130` `130` `255` | ![AchievementsInactiveFG] | `AchievementsInactiveFG` ⤶ Adding your own colors this key is simple just follow the formatting of the document. ⤶ [White]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e5b3c9eec6.webp⤶ [OffWhite]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6bf24176f.webp⤶ [DullWhite]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6c4aebdd5.webp⤶ [Orange]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6cb7f40f8.webp⤶ [TransparentBlack]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e93d7b20bd.webp⤶ [Black]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6d6d03fd5.webp⤶ [Blank]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6e2551d8e.webp⤶ [GMod_BG_Opaque]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6dbf82b3e.webp⤶ [GMod_BG]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6e9171d6b.webp⤶ [GMod_WhiteBlank]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6f0912bf2.webp⤶ [SteamLightGreen]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6f704cee4.webp⤶ [AchievementsLightGrey]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6fb19274d.webp⤶ [AchievementsDarkGrey]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e6ff3f637c.webp⤶ [AchievementsInactiveFG]: https://files.facepunch.com/wiki/files/b5608/8dc54e703ed210e.webp⤶ ⤶ ## BaseSettings ## BaseSettings Here is where you can actually customize the color of the panels. <note>Because of Garrys Mods progression over time some of these panels are not used anywhere anymore but their remains still exist in this file, I will point out all the values that I could note identify. Also some fields are conditional, indicated by the `[$WIN32]` or `[$X360]` [Here is the relevant Source 2013 SDK code for how these are elvaluated](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/source-sdk-2013/blob/0d8dceea4310fde5706b3ce1c70609d72a38efdf/sp/src/tier1/KeyValues.cpp#L2055C1-L2086C2) </note> For Each Chunk of keys I break them out in a code block that will have enhanced descriptions and unknown keys commented out ### Border ``` // The Default Border that surrounds most/all of the vgui elements //Border.Bright "UNKNOWN" //Border.Dark "UNKNOWN" Border.Selection "Black" // Border for Elements that should standout for selection - Option Menu "Accept Button" Border.DarkSolid "40 40 40 255" // Border used to make elements stand out from Background Border.Subtle "80 80 80 255" // Subtle Border used on elements. ``` ### Button ``` // Button - Single Click Action Buttons Button.TextColor "82 82 82 255" // Default Text Color Button.BgColor "227 227 227 255" // Default Background Color Button.ArmedTextColor "46 114 178 255" // Hover Text Color Button.ArmedBgColor "240 240 240 255" // Hover Background Color Button.DepressedTextColor "White" // Clicked Text Color Button.DepressedBgColor "84 178 245 255" // Clicked Background Color //Button.FocusBorderColor "UNKNOWN" ``` ### CheckButtons ``` // CheckButtons CheckButton.TextColor "White" // Text Label Color CheckButton.SelectedTextColor "White" // Checked Text Label Color CheckButton.BgColor "White" // Background of Checkbox Area CheckButton.Border1 "Border.Subtle" // Border Color of Left and Top Walls CheckButton.Border2 "Border.Subtle" // Border Color of Right and Bottom Walls CheckButton.Check "Black" // color of the check itself CheckButton.DisabledFgColor "Black" // color of the check itself when disabled CheckButton.HighlightFgColor "OffWhite" // Hovered Text Color CheckButton.ArmedBgColor "Blank" // Hovered Background Color //CheckButton.DepressedBgColor "UNKNOWN" CheckButton.DisabledBgColor "180 180 180 255" // Disabled Background Color ``` ### ComboBoxButton This references the arrow within the ComboBox and not the actual ComboBox ``` ComboBoxButton.ArrowColor "81 81 81 255" // Default Color of Triangle ComboBoxButton.ArmedArrowColor "110 110 110 255" // Hovered Triangle Color ComboBoxButton.BgColor "GMod_WhiteBlank" // Box Surrounding Triangle ComboBoxButton.DisabledBgColor "GMod_WhiteBlank" // Disabled Background ``` ### Frames ``` // Frames Frame.TitleTextInsetX 16 // Title Text Inset Frame.ClientInsetX 8 // Frame Padding for Child Elements Along X Axis Frame.ClientInsetY 6 // Frame Padding for Child Elements Along Y Axis Frame.BgColor "GMod_BG_Opaque" // Default Background Color Frame.OutOfFocusBgColor "97 100 102 240" // Color When Not Focused Frame.FocusTransitionEffectTime "0.3" // Time it takes to transition between focus states Frame.TransitionEffectTime "0.3" // Time it takes for panel to open (and close?)
