Catppuccin for Blender
- Head over to the latest release and download your selected accented flavour.
- Open Blender's settings and theme installation dialogue:
Edit → Preferences → Themes → Install
. - Browse to where you downloaded the theme and install the
.xml
file. - This copies the theme into
./scripts/presets/interface_theme/
subdirectory of your Blender configuration directory. You may now select it from the drop down menu.
Made for Blender 3.5+. You can try my add-on Theme Swapper to quickly swap between light and dark themes.
Q: Custom Panel/Box/Button roundness? Custom accent colour?
A: Clone or download the repository locally. If you don't have python, open your desired flavour master files in any text editor (for example accent generator/latte_master.xml
). Find and replace following text:
roundness="0.8"
replace for your desired element roundness. For example,roundness="0.4"
is Blender Dark default.#bada55
replace for your custom accent colour, that will show on many UI elements. For example#ad75f5
is light mauve.#bada66
replace for your custom secondary accent colour, that will show when selecting multiple objects. For example#563a7a
is dark mauve.
If you have python, run accent generator/accent generator.py
with arguments of your choice. All files in themes/
will be regenerated for all four flavours. You need colorutils installed (pip install colorutils
). Examples:
python 'accent generator.py' '0.4' 'All'
will generate all default accents with roundness of 0.4 which is Blender Dark default roundness.python 'accent generator.py' '#E64553' '1'
will generate only custom maroon accent with maximum roundness.python 'accent generator.py' 'all' '0.1' '#ff0000'
will generate all default accents as well as a custom red accent, all with roundness of 0.1.
Q: I have contrast issues with accent X!
A: Raise an issue and propose an alternative accent colour.
Q: Well, you see, I think that ...
A: Others have made Catppuccin themes for Blender as well. You might like their versions too:
- Catppuccin by Ameknite is a well done dark theme inspired by Blenders default dark theme.
- Catppuccin by codekisser is another well done dark theme.
- Catppuccin by nekowinston appears to be build on an older version of Catppuccin, and no longer maintained.
Catppuccin team has not yet selected one particular implementation as official.
- Report any inconsistencies, flaws, mistakes or contrast issues you can find.
- Propose alternative accent colours for better contrast between foreground and background elements.
