Description:

his is a modification of Dream_Team's Dream Tiger compiz theme (available at http://www.compiz.net/topic-3816-dream-accurate-tiger and in the xgl-coffee Gentoo package for CGWD) to make it fit with the KDE style Baghira, especially the gradiented toolbars (see screenshot).

To do this, I have changed the background pixmaps to look like the Tiger windeco in Baghira. The background pixmaps are not identical to Baghira because I decided to get rid of a dark line across the top, partly because Compiz draws such nice shadows and partly because it would fit better if I lost one pixel of height. I decided to keep the buttons from Dream Tiger because I prefer them to the Baghira ones and because they have a nice mouseover effect.

Since DTeam posted a link to a recent version of the original, I am planning to update this theme too. I think I will keep the version number in step to prevent confusion.

I can't make it work on Compiz. I've installed in Emerald Manager but it don't use themes...

This was originally a compiz theme if I recall correctly and I have not tested it on emerald as i do not use it myself any more.

Try changing the file extension to .emerald.

Great effort, but shortcomings like the very transparant rough corner will bug a trained eye.

I don't quite understand what the problem is with the corners. Could someone explain?

There is a problem when using the reflections plugin, but otherwise it is fine as far as I can see...

There was a problem with visible corners in latest compiz-quinn packages when window was above bright surface, but since I've migrated to beryl it's gone, so I think there is nothing wrong with your theme.

Btw, great work, it't goes well with T-ish for gnome :))

Isn't there a T-ish theme already?

In any case, you might prefer the theme I based this on. The only thing I changed was the gradient.

Yes it is. But since I was not using pixmap engine I was not able to have a frame as thin as yours, and rounded borders at the same time.

About the other theme, I'll check.

Great Theme!

but, is it possible to move the buttons to the right? In Compiz, possibly?

I prefer it this way, but if you open this theme in gcompizthemer, go to edit, titlebar, and look in the title-bar object layout box, you will see the text that describes the layout.

I haven't tested this, but I think if you change it from
C(7)N(7)X:I(2)T:S:OSX Layout
to
S:I(2)T:X(7)N(7)C:OSX Layout
It should look how you want it to.

Will test later when I have time.
