You can also go directly to the IBus Theme Hub and download specialized made IBus theme style sheet file. Here are the IBus theme style sheet files with Microsoft IME style: https://github.com/openSUSE/IBus-Theme-Hub/tree/main/%E4%BB%BF%E5%BE%AE%E8%BD%AFMicrosoft

Support customizing your IBus Input window background with a picture. It has a higher priority than the theme-defined background.
If you have selected a picture, click the icon on the far right to directly open and view the picture. You can also click the clear icon to make it follow theme background.
When light background and dark background are turned on at the same time, the IBus background will automatically follow GNOME Night Light mode, use light background when off, and use dark background when on. When only the light background or dark background is turned on, the IBus background will always use the background that is turned on.
Please make sure your background picture can always be visited. If your pictures are stored in the removable device and the system doesn't mount it by default, please disable and then enable the corresponding Use custom background again to make it effective after manually mounting.
Same as the general part, select the check box on the left to enable the configuration, and click on the right to select the background image of the IBus input candidate box.
You can also set the background picture display mode, you can set whether the background picture is displayed repeatedly, or the display mode Centered, Full or Zoom.
Examples of various picture display modes (using 128x128 compressed pictures: https://github.com/openSUSE/Customize-IBus/blob/main/customize-ibus%40hollowman.ml/img/logo.png ):

Non-GNOME desktop
Customize IBus theme
In non-GNOME Shell desktop environment, the display effect of IBus is determined by the current GTK theme.
You can download more GTK3/4 themes from this website: https://www.gnome-look.org/browse/cat/135/, then put them in the $HOME/.themes/ directory to complete the installation.
The following steps can change the GTK theme of IBus:
- First, Install ibus-theme-tools:
Recommend to use pip to install:
pip install ibus-theme-tools
You can also install manually:
git clone https://github.com/openSUSE/IBus-Theme-Tools.git
cd IBus-Theme-Tools && python3 setup.py install
If you use Arch Linux, you can also use AUR to install as a system extension:
yay -S ibus-theme-tools
Then run
ibus-theme-toolsin the terminal.Enter
1, choose to extract an IBus-related GTK theme, and pressEnter.
Enter the IBus GTK theme you want to extract, and then press
Enter. (Note that the theme name ends with:darkis the dark mode of the theme)
Enter the system GTK you want to mix, and then press
Enter.
Select whether to add a customized background image for IBus panel, if you need press
2and then pressEnter.
Enter the picture address：
Then choose repeat and sizing modes, and set background border radius (unit:
px).
If there is no error message, the setting action should be successful. Then you can choose the GTK theme that just generated in the system theme settings to apply the previous choices.
Customize IBus font size
Recommend to directly change the font and font size settings in the IBus preferences (ibus-setup).
Or:
$HOME/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini defines the current GTK3 theme and font size.
Example of the content of the file is as follows:
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name=Materia-light
gtk-font-name=更纱黑体 SC 12
In the above content, gtk-theme-name specifies that the current GTK theme is material-light, gtk-font-name specifies that the current font is 更纱黑体 SC and the font size is `12 '.
The IBus font and font size can be changed by modifying the above documents.
Customize IBus colors (Create a GTK theme)
Create a GTK3 theme called ibus-custom-theme by running:
bash
mkdir -p $HOME/.themes/ibus-custom-theme/gtk-3.0
$EDITOR $HOME/.themes/ibus-custom-theme/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
then edit the file content. An example can be:
`css
- {
color: #0b141a; /* Font Color /
background-color: #ffffff; / Background Color /
-gtk-secondary-caret-color: #d4d4d4; / Highlight Background Color */
}
`
After that, referring to the actions of the Customize IBus theme part, please select the theme ibus-custom-theme which you just created.
