BsxM1

A set of PNG files wrapped in Apple .icns file format suitable for using as a theme for OpenCanopy which is part of OpenCore.

Requirements
OpenCore with OpenCanopy installed and configured.

Initial Setup of OpenCanopy
Please refer to OpenCore beauty treatment at dortania.

PickerAttributes
To enjoy OpenCore's flavour system edit your config.plist and set PickerAttributes to 144.

                <key>PickerAttributes</key>
                <integer>144</integer>

Compatible with OpenCore Version
0.7.0 and newer

Note: Since OpenCore 0.7.0, the EFI/OC/Resources/Image/ directory will contain a Vendor directory which in turn will contain subsequent theme dirs.

Using this theme
This repository contains a Blackosx directory with a sub-directory BsxM1 which contains all necessary ICNS files for the theme.

If you don't have a EFI/OC/Resources/Image/Blackosx directory in EFI/OC/Resources/Image/

then add the Blackosx directory to EFI/OC/Resources/Image/ directory in your systems EFI System Partition.

If you already have EFI/OC/Resources/Image/Blackosx/

then just add the BsxM1 directory

Either way, for this theme you will want to end up having EFI/OC/Resources/Image/Blackosx/BsxM1

You can switch the icon set used by OpenCanopy by changing the 'PickerVariant' key in OpenCore's config.plist to match the vendor and theme name of the icon set you want to display. So to instruct OpenCanopy to use this icon set you want to set the PickerVariant key to Blackosx\BsxM1

                <key>PickerVariant</key>
                <string>Blackosx\BsxM1</string>

Recommended Config changes
For the best experience using this theme you will want the text to display in white. This can be achieved by setting NVRAM->Add->4D1EDE05-38C7-4A6A-9CC6-4BCCA8B38C14->DefaultBackgroundColor to any colour other than Apple Grey, #BFBFBF or as used on config.plist, v7+/AA==

        <key>NVRAM</key>
        <dict>
            <key>Add</key>
            <dict>
                <key>4D1EDE05-38C7-4A6A-9CC6-4BCCA8B38C14</key>
                <dict>
                    <key>DefaultBackgroundColor</key>
                    <data>AAAAAA==</data>

Selected Icon(s)
This theme includes a default Selected icon which uses the four colours of Apple's M1 artwork design, and also four alternative Selected icons each using just one of the original colours. If you wish to use one of these alternative versions then you will need to change the filename of the current Selected.icns to something like #Selected.icns and then rename one of the alternate icons to Selected.icns

Credits
The design of this theme is based on the original Apple image for their M1 chip
