Grub主题美化其实很简单，结构性很强，比较有条理，逐步设置就能做出满意的theme。

grub主题由以下部分组成，Global option(全局选项)，Boot menu(启动菜单)，progress bar(进度条)，circular progress（环形进度条），label （标签），image（图形）、vertical box（垂直框架），horizontal box（水平框架），canvas（画布）。其中Vbox、Hbox、Canvas为容器组件，可以在内部排布其他组件，如image、label、boot menu。


全局选项包含的设置：
Title包含以下设置内容，title的align属性为center，且top属性为10%，此两项为默认的属性，不可进行设置更改。
title-text: "Title-Grub2.02"
title-font: "DejaVu_bold_14.pf2"
title-color: "#EEAD0E"
message包含以下设置内容
message-font: "dejavu_16.pf2"
message-color: "#FFF0F5"
message-bg-color: "#696969"
desktop包含以下设置内容，若image属性指定图片，且图片存在，则color属性不生效。
desktop-image: "background.png"
desktop-image-scale-method: "fitwidth"
desktop-image-h-align: "center"
desktop-image-v-align: "center"
desktop-color: "#B5B5B5"
terminal 包含以下设置内容，其中box为，style box对象，通过正则表达式查找对应方位的图片，先定位四角，四边和中间进行拉伸填充。文本的显示位置为w、e、s、n，四个边框组成的center内部区域，四个边框区域不能显示文本内容。只有当terminal-box未指定时，border属性才生效。
terminal-box: "terminal_*.png"
terminal-font: "dejavu_10.pf2"
terminal-top : "0"
terminal-left : "0"
terminal-width : "300"
terminal-height : "200"
terminal-border : "10"


boot menu设置：
第一部分为位置和尺寸属性，位置参数（top和left）是以所在容器的坐标为原点，若将boot menu放于canvas容器内，将以canvas的top和left为原点。
top = 200
left = 300
width = 200
height = 150
第二部分为menu指定style box，此部分可指定一部分，不需要凑齐所有9块图片，为指定的方位图片，可能会留空或通过拉伸进行填充。
menu_pixmap_style = "menu_*.png"
第三部分，指定菜单项的属性，
item_font = "dejavu_14"
item_color = "#EE2C2C"
max_items_shown = 2-控制显示的数量，此项实验时不起作用。


item_height = 25-启动项的高度，此项将影响item_pixmap_style的高度。
item_padding = 10-此项的距离为所有菜单项组成的区域外围，与center边界的距离，为四周距离。
item_spacing = 5-item项与项之间的距离
item_pixmap_style = "item_*.png"-item项未选中时显示的style box


icon_height = 20-通过—class属性指定的png图形的高度，
icon_width = 20-通过—class属性指定的png图形的宽度
item_icon_space = 10-icon和menu entry的title之间的距离




selected_item_font = "dejavu_bold_14"-选中项的字体
selected_item_color= "#C0FF3E"-选中项的文字颜色
selected_item_pixmap_style = "select_hl_*.png"-选中项的style box


scrollbar = true -启动项过多时，滚动条启用
scrollbar_width = 19
scrollbar_height = 37
scrollbar_thumb = "slider_*.png"-滚动条的图形
#scrollbarf_thumb_overlay = "false"
#scrollbar_slice = "east"
#scrollbar_left_pad = "west"
#scrollbar_right_pad = "east"
#scrollbar_top_pad = pixels
#scrollbar_bottom_pad = pixels


#visible = "false"-菜单是否可见


progress bar设置内容
id = "__timeout__"


top = 400
left = 100
height = 15
width = 300


#fg_color = "#fff"-若不指定bar_style和highlight style将启用此项
#bg_color = "#6ac"
#border_color = "#fff"


font = "dejavu_10"
text_color = "#000"
text = "@TIMEOUT_NOTIFICATION_LONG@"


bar_style = "progress_bar_*.png"
highlight_style = "progress_mark_*.png"
highlight_overlay = "false"




circular_progress设置内容{
id = "__timeout__"


top = 50
left = 50
height = 100
width = 100


center_bitmap = "tick_center.png"
tick_bitmap = "tick_mark.png"-类似于表针，将会围着center_bitmap旋转，但是图片的方向不进行旋转，所以最好用圆形的tick_bitmap.
num_ticks = 30-显示多少次tick_bitmap
start_angle = "36 deg"-开始的角度


ticks_disappear  = "true"-转过的角度是否消失，true为不消失。


Lable的设置内容
top = 300
left = 50%-200
width = 400
height = 20


text = "@KEYMAP_MIDDLE@"
font = "dejavu_12"
color = "#76EE00"
align = "center"


visible = "true"


image 的设置内容
top = 50
left = 200
width = 100
height = 100
file = "image.png"


canvas 的设置内容，只需要指定位置和尺寸
top = 50
left = 350
width = 100
height = 100


hbox和vbox的设置内容，只需要指定位置，无width和height属性，hbox采用内部组件的高度，vbox采用内部组件的宽度。
top = 50
left = 350
