Tags: patch

Create a flat-button style for boxes. It is based on the simple button
style but uses the background colour instead of the foreground colour
for the box.
This greatly simplifies the extension of Emacs themes to adapt them to
modern GUIs where the buttons are flat.

As an example, I like the mode-line to be a bit higher than the regular
mode line (à la doom-modeline, but not as big):

;; Definition of the styles without the patch:
;; I need to look up my theme and get the colours from it. For
;; nord-emacs it looks like this
;;
;; '(mode-line ((t (:inherit mode-line :background "#434C5E" :box
(:line-width 4 :color "#434C5E" )))))
;; '(mode-line-inactive ((t (:inherit mode-line-inactive :background
;; "#3B4252" :box (:line-width 4 :color "#3B4252" )))))

;; With the patch, I just need to indicate how many pixels higher (x 2)
;; I want the mode-line to be. I can reuse these settings across themes
;;
'(mode-line ((t (:inherit mode-line :box (:line-width 4 :style
flat-button)))))
'(mode-line-inactive ((t (:inherit mode-line-inactive :box (:line-width 4
:style flat-button )))))
