Description:

Window decoration designed to compliment the Ghost plasma theme.

This decoration should now display properly for modern kde versions (tested on 4.7.2)

However, I've dropped support for inheriting current color scheme highlight, as that feature has not been working for some time now and is the cause of the previous "grey glow" issue. I may look into re-adding support for this in the future, but I'm unsure if it is still possible to do with aurorae themes.

Ghost theme for plasma & KDE Color Scheme: http://jmtodaro.com/ghost.html

Yes, another nice window decoration. Good job!

It takes less time to take the time to do it right the first time, than it does to fix it the second time.

non-compositing breakage

I don't know if it's an issue with aurorae or ghost, but the decoration becomes almost unusable for non-maximized windows if you use it in a non-composited desktop (like I tend to use when my notebook runs on battery), especially if you start resizing such windows. Mind looking into that?

Yes this a bug with Ghost. I've already fixed it, I just haven't uploaded it to KDE-Look yet heh. I'll try to do so today, but in the meantime you can obtain 2.0.2 from my website here:

Thanks. Works great now :)
The only thing remaining now (for me) is that "Keep Above" and "On All Desktops" have the same button design, where the visual toggle works on the latter but not on the former (the functionality works just fine). Non-critical issue though :)
Keep it up!

Button Size

I've been using the Ghost themes for almost a month now and I have to say, I really like them. What's more, not having tried a dark theme before, I never felt the urge to switch back. So, thumbs up, awesome stuff :)
For the Aurorae theme I would have one request though. I regularly miss the window buttons, which gets annoying over time. Is there a chance you can make them bigger?

That's a reasonable request and I will consider it. In the meantime, you should just edit the config file. It's easy! You'll likely find it here:

~/.kde/share/apps/aurorae/themes/ghost-deco/ghost-decorc

Just open with your favorite text editor and adjust the following values:
ButtonWidth=10
ButtonHeight=10
ButtonSpacing=8

The numbers denote pixel size. You will probably have to restart Plasma or KDE for the changes to show up correctly. Hope this helps!

Little problem with maximized windows

There's a margin between my top panel and the top of all maximized windows with this decoration theme. It causes the border of non maximized windows behind the window with focus to show up as straight lines. It's a bit weird

Is there any way I can change blue color in this decoration to green? I tried to open .svg in gimp, colorize it, but nothing has changed. Same goes with Ghost Desktop Theme
