COSMIC Tweaks gives you granular control over everything you can do in COSMIC.

This app aims to help you tweak settings that are not currently available in COSMIC Settings.

Here’s what the app can do so far:

  • ✨ Color schemes: Save your current theme and import other themes to use anytime you want.

  • ⚙️ Panels: Fine-tune your panel padding and spacing.

COSMIC Tweaks is just getting started, and more features are on the way!

    As much as I love cosmic and I love cosmic apps seeing more of them. Can we not have this? This is one of my biggest criticisms and massive annoyances in the world is that you need a separate app to configure things.

    Please no…

      Some dude just doing a side project with useful features. I am assuming sys76 can incorporate into the main settings panel if people like it?

      I made this to experiment with COSMIC without having to change config files manually, after realizing this could be useful to other people I decided to announce it, but it’s designed for tinkerers, you don’t “need” this to have a good experience with COSMIC.

        I hope that this isn’t useful at all to anyone. I do loads of tinkering, but having multiple applications to configure system settings always has been, and always will be annoying. It’s best if these tweaks are exposed via the official app somehow.

          You’d have to open a lot more windows and text editors to accomplish what cosmic-tweaks does, I’d argue that’s more annoying than simply opening an app and toggling a setting.

          The hope is that these setting one day will make its way to the official settings apps, in the meantime, we got cosmic-tweaks.

      Your problem is fixed by not using this or any other app in the first place. Just because you’re annoyed doesn’t mean everyone is nor should it prevent apps from existing.

      S76 isn’t going to have every option available to appease everyone’s unique asks; a separate app for other folks can pick up the slack. Otherwise Cosmic will turn into KDE with so many options that it becomes difficult to find or use.
