Description:

"Candido" is an Italian word that means "candid", smooth things and feelings...
This theme is provided with this good feeling. :)

"Candido" is based on "Gray" theme by me and then Mint.
For the rest... There's two version of "Candido", (the Light one is a little bit bright, from #e7e7e7 to #eaeaea for the background, and it has different tabs).

I'm planning new colored versions and a package with a few modified window borders.
Please ask me before make any *color* mods, because I'm planning to do new colored versions in the future!
Please comment is you have found any bug or if you request some new features!

Suggestions are always welcome!

Candido is absolutely a great theme!
It would be nice to have also a Candido Emerald theme (and maybe an openbox one too). What do you think of it?
Keep on withe the good work!

Great theme!

The url of the 3rd Wallpaper doesn't seem to work ... http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/21871321/

Didn't find it on images.google either.

Would appreciate it a lot, if you can post a valid link.

The theme doesn't seem to work in Edgy. I'm just getting square buttons.

Hello, indeed a great theme. Unfortunately it doesn't display corretly the thumbs of scrollbars in the Vim editor, in which they are displaced.

Here is how it looks like:

Can something be done with this?

...more information about the gtkrc files? i like to build my own gtk-theme, but i found no good documentation.

Is there a manpage or something else, that completly describes the possible content of that file?

no sorry, it is a color modification of "the tree of life" wallpaper found on deviantart (I think that the green color of the original one sucks...)

I may have found a bug in the GTK theme.

I use XFCE, so it might be just with XFCE, but when the URGENT window manager hint is set on a window (i.e. in gaim when someone messages me, the window in the taskbar is supposed to flash) it doesn't flash, but it does with other themes such as Industrial.

Really? What version of XFCE are you using?

The window flashes, but the entry on the taskbar doesn't.

I did a clearlooks color mod with this #e1ded8 ergonomic color. It would be great to see it in Candido.

Really? What bug? LMK when you upload it and thanks again. :)

Do the titlebar buttons on the Metacity version sink in when pressed? If so, possible that it could be implemented in the xfwm4 version?
