Hello list :) Apologies if this is subjective, but I thought I would post anyhow. Basically, I really like the Default Xfce window decorations, but personally I do not think they are working overly well with the current Xubuntu GTK+ theme, Albatross.
Active windows look really nice, where the menu bar blends in seamlessly with window decoration. However, with inactive windows, the window decoration changes colour to a lighter shade and ceases to blend with the menu bar. Is this a usability thing? I do not know, but IMHO, it just looks wrong. So anyhow, I set about making some modifications to the Default window decorations and made both the active and inactive windows blend. I also changed the inactive title text colour so that it has less contrast. I have posted some before and after screenshots: Before: http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/5666/xubuntu910betadefaultwi.png After: http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/2396/xubuntu910betamoddedwin.png It is probably hard to judge the difference by looking at the above screenshots, so if anyone is interested in testing the modified theme, let me know and I will attach a tarball. No problem if not. :) Cheers, -- Philip -- xubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel
