This is a modification of the kwinacquamod with dropshadows...
i added the goodies from my former kwinacqua mod:
- correct buttons and button placements
- grey inactive titlebars
and i added these configuration options:
- shadowed titlebar text is now optional
- you can choose between
-- no right button
-- a menu button
-- a context-help button
(just look at screenshot 1 :) )
I also changed the name of the lib, so you can install mine and another kwinacqua without any problems....
Installing:
$ ./configure [ options ]
$ make
# make install
for debian users, there's an install script which sets all the correct configure options, so it's only:
$ ./build-debian.sh
# make install

New configuration option:
- "borderless" mode
( check screenshot 2 )
New configuration option:
- "light inactive style", inactive title bar is not darkened
...done upon request from here, but it looks so cool, it's now default :)
you can see the effect on screenshot 3 - doesn't look like much, but try it out! You'll be surprised!
Bugfix:
- icon doesn't get drawn behind buttons if the window-width is too small

./configure works without errors
make compiles without errors
make install (as su) works without errors
and then? I cannot select the style. It just doesn't show up. Maybe it installs into the wrong directory (I'm running Mandrake 9.2)?
Pleeeeeeaaaaaassse help!

mv /usr/local/kde/share/apps/kwin/acqual3m.desktop /usr/share/apps/kwin/

Optional if you want to keep your system clean of fake files and directories to avoid confusion:
NOTE Make sure you dont need or have anything else inside this folder... Mine was created at the time of compile for this theme. I am not responsible if you remove somthing you wherent supposed to.
rm -Rf /usr/local/kde
PS.. Love this theme.

checking for libz... configure: error: not found. Check your installation and look into config.log.
I've searched for a libz package for mandrake 9.0 but the closest thing i came to was the zlib1 package listed in kpackage. any ideas where i can get libz?
thanks

One small wish:
Could you add a sticky/unsticky button? That is the only thing I miss.

features:
* fixed black line along the bottom in MacOSX style shadow mode (thanks Thowil =);
* titlebar is lower so you can use bigger fonts
* the shadow is more "light" so matching the default Liquid shadow color
* borderless mode improved
L3m I hope you like it, what about a new release? try it! =)
Let's keep this kwinaqua as the default one! So far I only miss:
* the ability to configure the buttons position (although the default is correct)
* titelbar text should be *centered*, while right now it's a bit on the right (any hint for this?)
ciao
