This is a small collection of themes for Open Joystick Display, by KernelZechs. Basically, although the built-in themes look nice, sometimes a user will want further customization. (Also the fight stick themes swap the L and R buttons.) Unfortunately, development on the project by KernelZechs has ceased, but it is an open-source project and as such can be revived by others in the future.
The eventual goal here is to have a group of SVG-based themes written as simply as possible, so that others can use them directly, and also to have teaching examples that look less daunting than many of the built-in themes.

- If you haven't already, download Open Joystick Display from the original author's website, and install it into its own folder.
- Download or clone the repository. (See the green "Code" button at the top-right of the file list, on desktop.)
- If you downloaded the repository as a ZIP file, extract it to an empty folder. For Windows users, I recommend
%USERPROFILE%\OneDrive\OJD-Themes
or a new folder in the Open Joystick Display folder, though anywhere is fine as long as it's not overwriting or getting overwritten by anything else. - Inside of Open Joystick Display, in the left column in configuration mode (the mode at startup), in the
Profile Theme
section, clickSelect Folder
, and navigate and select the folder you extracted the theme repository to. - If done correctly, the new themes will appear at the bottom of the

dropdown box, in the sectionUser Themes:
