Userstyle Tutorial

February 6, 2020 ยท View on GitHub

Some Go players are quite picky when it comes to stones and board textures. I'm not saying Sabaki's textures look the best or are realistic, but I daresay they're quite good. However, if you really have to, you can actually change them using userstyles.

Using userstyles is an easy way to change Sabaki's appearance without having to replace any important files and without having the changes reverted with the next update.

Determine styles.css location

First, determine where Sabaki saves its settings:

  • %APPDATA%\Sabaki on Windows
  • $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/Sabaki or ~/.config/Sabaki on Linux
  • ~/Library/Application Support/Sabaki on macOS

Inside the folder there's a file named styles.css. Any CSS statement inside this file will be loaded when Sabaki starts up. It can be helpful to open the developer tools to look at the DOM.

Take a look at Shudan's documentation to see how to change board and stone images.
