I went to https://software.opensuse.org/download and did a search for Oxygen. I was presented with a page that showed a number of choices for downloading and installing the Oxygen theme. I chose the one I wanted and tried the one click method and it failed. So, I tried the expert Download option and was presented with a page that said to run (as root):
Zypper gave me an error message stating that there was no such directory.
UNIVAC:~ # zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:Factory/standard/openSUSE:Factory.repo
File '/repositories/openSUSE:Factory/standard/openSUSE:Factory.repo' not found on medium 'https://download.opensuse.org/'
Abort, retry, ignore? [a/r/i/...? shows all options] (a):

and tried both Factory and Factory: and there is no standard directory shown. It seems the the directory structure has changed.
Anyone know where the Oxygen Theme “stuff” is located? Besides really disliking flat icons, I have become reliant on the glow around the windows and can’t find any other theme that allows it.
Sure enough! I use yast to make my settings, and oxygen was not shown. I did a web search and found the information I showed. Based on your findings, I tried Software Management and there it was! I should have done that first!
Thanks for straightening me out. The good thing is I learned a new (to me) zypper command!
When I use YaST > Software > Software Management and use oxygen in the Search field, I get the same list as shown above. I do not know what you did (because you never explained except the vague " I use yast to make my settings, and oxygen was not shown", but what I did looks rather obvious to me.
