Golden Topaz - theme of sublime?

obsidian-Golden-Topaz-theme

This is a theme designed to create a more inspiring, transcendent and sublime environment for reading, thinking and writing in Obsidian.

The theme started out as a set of snippets on top of the Blue Topaz as soon as I realized WhyI’s Blue Topaz does all the features I was ever trying to do in my DIY snippets and got the job done in a much nicer way. I have worked to collect colours from photos, websites as inspirations to make it more aesthetically appealing. I hope the Golden Topaz calms and reassures your emotional energies the way it did to me and my friends.

If you like a cuter and more adorable theme, check out my Pink Topaz. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I thought if Licat likes it, it will transcend to the Community Themes automatically :joy: I have no clue about how it works.

Nope, you make a PR here with the data:

Just edit this file:

Follow the pattern of the other themes there.

Do you mind if I ask about how to create the hybrid screenshot that every light/dark theme has?

Not sure on that! Sorry.

NP, I gonna google it

First of all thanks a lot for this beautiful theme. I am using the light version of it and it is amazing for the hours I spend writing on it !

I got a couple of questions, on my calendar pane I do see everything perfectly (dots etc) but the current day is not highlighted. Is there a way to add some kind of a dark highlight on that day so at a glance to know what is the date today?

My last question is about the Front Matter, I am suing the <% %> tags of the Templater plugin to create templates and I have added some of that on the front matter but anything that is written within the < > is using too bright of a color on the font so its actually invisible. I have to go to preview mode to see what is being written . Is there a way to change that font color to a darker one?

Thanks in advance and again a huge thank you for bringing this awesome theme to us!

I just found out that I can turn off the syntax highlighting on the Templater, so problem no 2 was solved!

I will update and fix bugs soon, maybe within 2 weeks. Thanks for the feedback.

@Mouth This is a bit unrelated to the theme itself (which looks pretty great btw), I saw the mermaid type of flowchart in the screenshot for the theme: link. I have been trying to create flowcharts like this with text without background, angled arrows etc but I have not been able to get it done in mermaid. I thought this was not even possible with it. Can you help me understand how you generated this flowchart? It would be super helpful!

Can you direct me to the correct .css elements to change so I can remove the large braces between bullets and the text that follows them? Otherwise, I’m sold!

@vzman Did you ever find the elements? I wanted to remove those as well.
