Otter Browser Forum / It comes on the Gentoo Linux live dvd...
Ofc. that does not mean you get it just by intalling Gentoo, otter is only on the Live DVD. But it is still nice to know.

Otter Browser Forum / How to install otter on Debian testing.
Luckily I found a workaround.
The packages that are missing for me were
libhunspell-1.3-0 and qtbase-abi-5-3-2(which is just a virtual package)
First I tried to install otter with gdebi so that it installs any and all dependencies it can install and tells me which ones I am missing.
I installed libhunspell by manually downloading libhunspell-1.3-0 from the unstable repository from here and then installing that package with gdebi:
https://packages.debian.org/sid/libhunspell-1.3-0
Then I did sudo apt install libqt5core5a (which provides functionalities that otter needs from the qtbase-abi
Unfortunately I could not install qtbase-abi-5-3-2 itself at all, so I just skipped that.
If you had any other missing dependencies you can install them by using the same methods I used.
Then I just in case uninstalled otter.
I reinstalled it by downloading the latest weekly package and doing sudo dpkg -i name-of-otters-deb-package.deb
And now I am writing this from my Otter-browser on Debian testing.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Blueotter css theme for Otter browser
The document was not properly commented so I am lost as well. I suggest you just put font-size:x into elemnts and then go reapply the css in otters preferences until you get whatever result you want.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Otter Browser is the best lightweight web browser
However the problem with Otter and RAM comes from the fact that ~50% of Otter code is just pure QT. For those that don't know QT is a programmer tool that is used to create everything that your eye can see when using Otter, plus some other things as well. QT is what is called a GUI framework(but it has other functionality beyond just GUI).
While QT is maybe even the best GUI framework around, it never was or wanted to be lightweight. That is why when you launch Otter, Otter has to load so many QT libraries into RAM.
Optimisations can be done, but those would be probably very tough for our devs and they would take precious time that could be used for developing new features and bugfixing.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Blueotter css theme for Otter browser
You should use hexadecimal values for the colors but you can just use words like 'red'.
The problem is that there are lots of 'background-color' and 'color' to change. It took me an hour or two.

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Blueotter css theme for Otter browser
You are right because the font size really did change.
I was right because I did not change it myself, it was changed by the original css theme which I modified.
Anyways I have fixed it. Just download from the same link again.
Perhaps i should make versions with different font sizes. Maybe even different colors(although that would be a lot more work).

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Blueotter css theme for Otter browser
Can you post a screenshot of how it looks on your machine?
Or do you want me to just increase the default font size(my css skills are rusty, but I am pretty sure this can be done)?

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Blueotter css theme for Otter browser
It is GPL v3 licensed so I encourage everyone to download and modify it. If you can improve the comments and further research what does what in the css that would be great.
True road you go to one. Installed, I liked, but there was a problem too fine print on the menu and I would like to change the color.
Have you tried changing your widget style? Although IDK how windows widget styles will function since I don't have a Windows box ATM.

Otter Browser Forum / Blueotter css theme for Otter browser
Hello guys, I have made a custom CSS theme for Otter browser. To use it, you just download the zip, unzip it and point otter to the CSS file from:
Tools>Preferences>Advanced>Appearance>Style sheet.
It works best with GTK+ or Fusion as widget styles.
Here is how it looks, be prepared for lots of light blue:
And although the original CSS from which I made this was completely uncommented, I have managed to mak some comments, so if you want to make your own custom CSS, it will be easier if you just modify my own.
Blueotter is a modification of the Darcula theme for QtCreator:

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Stylesheets?
Oops forgot to link https://github.com/mervick/Qt-Creator-Darcula
How do you apply it?
Can I just copy paste the css into a new .css file and point otter to it, or do I need to download everything from the repo?

Otter Browser Forum / Youtube drains CPU
I have a pretty strong Laptop, so although it should rise it should not rise so much.

Otter Browser Forum / Stylesheets?
If not is there a template which I can then edit? Or maybe even a tutorial on this? Are they CSS?
