Re: Default GTK/Openbox/Notification Theme

(gtk? gtk+? not sure which, but it's lovely)

I certainly do hope it's gtk+ and not gtk

Re: Default GTK/Openbox/Notification Theme

Nice work, are those notification looking nice even when there is no compton (compositor) present?

No to me, no. I like shadows, and it's why I'm using Compton with Xfwm4, because Xfwm's compositor in 4.10 no longer (?) draws shadows on notifications nor xfce4-panel. Without shadows, it all depends on the background how they look. Feel free to download, use and edit as you see fit.

short version;
Compton brings in problems (video tearing), so my proposal A. would be;
either:
- someone fixes compton
- ship with compton off, its optional (and theming must work that way) < at least until compton is smarter out of the box, shadows can go into Helium or Lithium.

My workaround for ugly notifications without compton;
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/795 … ion_thingy < that would be proposal B.

p.s. As for the design, we will not come together, but I decided to gracefully step out/quit/try not to comment anything in that direction, so you can have a smooth workflow without silly questions/whining.

Re: Default GTK/Openbox/Notification Theme

I've updated the notification themes so the 'title' uses a bold font and the progress bar (volume/brightness) looks better, use the original links..
