Re: [ubuntu-art] Metacity Button Order Changed
It's because the buttons will be on the left, not right side afterall: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/03/almost-official-ubuntu-1004-lucid-will.html On Fri, Mar 5, 2010 at 16:21, Saleel Velankar svela...@gmail.com wrote: Yeah doesn't this force user to relearn behavior, for no obvious benefit?

In the old metacity the order was; minimize, maximize, close In the new metacity the order is: maximize, minimize, close Is this the desired effect or is this a bug?

As far as I can remember (correct me if I'm wrong), the button layout is an option you can set with gnome config. I certainly know it's an option for emerald anyway.

Doesn't a theme have the ability to define where the window controls are located in relation to the title, etc? -Chris I guess the themes can modify the gconf entries - those installed by .deb files only (so those from the Ubuntu repos)! But all the themes would have to be updated. The rest of the themes... oh well, there will have to be different versions for Ubuntu users or something. -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
Re: [ubuntu-art] New Wave question
Hi, What do you think of the background of the window on the screenshot? (it's a bit like sprayed): http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/1946/31718430.png Would you like such a thing as default? Anton Kerezov http://ankere.wordpress.com/ Looks good, Anton. I like the texture, subtle but different. Nice work. I for one don't like textures in my theme. Especially in New Wave which is a polished theme and the texture is rough and seems from a different scenario :) Just my opinion... -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
