Flatlooks

Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net

Description:

This is a Clearlooks variation I did a while ago, but never got to publishing it.

Basicly it's good old Clearlooks 2 Metacity theme ported to Beryl legacy engine, but with a flatter translucent look (Beryl doesn't do Metacity style multiple horizontal gradients... yet). Buttons are all redrawn in transparent PNGs and there are two border styles and four colour schemes to choose from.

Hope you'll find good use for it.

Ah, I think see what you mean. The is titlebar actually is vertically centered (3 px above the buttons and 3 px below - exactly the same as in Clearlooks Metacity theme), but the top edge highlight gives it a slight optical boost upwards. Also the typeface is centered according to the x-height which adds to this effect if you have lots of letters with ascenders.

I think I'll keep it as it is for now, as close as possible to the original Metacity theme... But try this for a quick fix: In Emerald Themer open the Titlebar-tab and change Minimum Title-bar Height to 18 and Vertical Button Offset to 4.

Hope this helps.
