[SOLVED] How to export current color theme of xfce4 terminal?
How to export current xfce4-terminal color profile?
I copied into my
/usr/share/xfce4/terminal/colorschemes Kali.theme form Kali linux.
I know that I can edit hex values inside to adjust it but it's a lot of testing.
It seems that it's possible to change terminal colors in terminal settings but if I change profile o another one my changes are not being saved.
Is it possible to export current color theme to file with the name I choose?

Any changes you make to the colors in the settings dialog will be saved in ~/.config/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc in a ColorPalette line. You can copy and save that line.

Thank you.
Colors in this file are in RGB values. Can I use it to make my own .theme file? Do I need to convert them to hex values?

You can use rgb values in colorscheme themes. For example, the tango theme minus the translations:
[Scheme]
Name=Tango
ColorPalette=#000000;#cc0000;#4e9a06;#c4a000;#3465a4;#75507b;#06989a;#d3d7cf;#555753;#ef2929;#8ae234;#fce94f;#739fcf;#ad7fa8;#34e2e2;#eeeeecOffline

Hey, ToZ. Sorry, I didn't want to open a new thread just to ask you this little question. If I enable Use system theme colors for text and background in the preferences, where do they come from? I can't seem to launch it with GtkInspector.
I know there is the easy way, but I'm just curious how it works. Thanks.

It uses the GTK theme's default foreground and background colors.
