This problem is not specific to ambiance and radiance. Steps to recreate: 1. use gconf-editor to update /apps/metacity/general/button_layout 2. Choose a non-standard setting (I prefer ":minimize,close") 3. From the System menu, open Preferences / Appearance 4. Select any Theme (for example "New Wave") 5. Buttons are updated per the theme. (Presumably, some Themes do not update button_layout)
Appearance Preferences does subtly notify you that the button_layout has changed. And offers a button to revert. I'll try to attach a screenshot. If you miss this note then select another Theme, the opportunity to revert is lost. Also, when switching from a Theme that matches your button_layout, the revert option is not presented. ** Attachment added: "Subtle notice to restore buttons.
