Tonic Theme

Based on Soda Theme by Ian Hill (http://buymeasoda.com/)

A copy of the Soda Theme, dark and light custom UI themes for Sublime Text 2. This version has minor tweaks, like more visible indicators for tabs whose files have changed. This version is used in Sublime Text 3 (but should work in Sublime Text 2).

Design

Installation

Tonic theme is designed to work with the latest development build of Sublime Text 3.

Using Git

If you are a git user, you can install the theme and keep up to date by cloning the repo directly into your Packages directory in the Sublime Text 3 application settings area.

You can locate your Sublime Text 3 Packages directory by using the menu item Preferences -> Browse Packages....

On a Mac:

cd ~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages

While inside the Packages directory, clone the theme repository using the command below:

git clone https://github.com/HarryPehkonen/tonic-theme.git "Tonic Theme"

Download Manually

• Download the files using the GitHub .zip download option
• Unzip the files and rename the folder to Tonic Theme
• Copy the folder to your Sublime Text 3 Packages directory

Activating the theme

To configure Sublime Text 3 to use the theme:

• Open your User Settings Preferences file Sublime Text 3 -> Preferences -> Settings - User

Or, on a Mac:

~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/User

• Add (or update) your theme entry to be "theme": "Tonic Light.sublime-theme" or "theme": "Tonic Dark.sublime-theme"

Example User Settings

{
    "theme": "Tonic Light.sublime-theme"
}

Additional Features

Alternate Tab Styles

Soda Theme ships with two alternate UI tab styles.

By default, a square tab style is used. If you'd prefer to use the original curved tab style, add the following custom setting to your Settings - User file:

"tonic_classic_tabs": true

Retina Resolution UI

Soda Theme has been designed to take advantage of retina resolution (high-dpi) displays. Both Tonic Light and Tonic Dark support retina displays.

Theme Customisation

Sublime Text 3 provides an elegant way to tweak existing themes without having to duplicate or maintain a separate copy of the original theme. If there are aspects of Soda Theme that you would like to adjust, take a look at the theme customisation wiki page.

Bonus Options

Syntax Highlighting Colour Schemes

The Soda Light screenshot uses a modified version of Espresso Tutti Colori and the Soda Dark screenshot uses a modified version of Monokai.

If you'd like to use the syntax highlighting schemes shown in the screenshots:

• Download colour-schemes.zip
• Unzip and place the extracted tmtheme files in the Sublime Text 3 Packages/User folder
• Enable the colour scheme via Preferences -> Color Scheme -> User

Code Font

The code font shown in the screenshot is Menlo.

Development

Please note, Sublime Text dev builds move quickly and changes can occur with the theme API between releases, so there may be occasions where the theme doesn't quite work with a brand new dev release.

While developing the theme, I have documented some theme challenges and ideas encountered along the way.
