| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | To access the themes directory like the home folde Sep 16 2012 on content Sway Invisible Panel V-1.8 | To access the themes directory like the home folder
1. Run Terminal (press and hold Ctrl + Alt + T)
2. In Terminal type
whoami (remember this name as we will now use swar)
3. Switch to super user by typing
sudo su -
4. type your password into terminal
You are now ROOT User or Super User!
5. To change the permissions of the theme folder type
sudo chown -R swar:swar /usr/share/themes
6. Remember swar should be your whoami result / account
ie: if you are becky then it should be...
sudo chown -R becky:becky /usr/share/themes
7. You need to leave ROOT User or Super User so type
8. exit
9. then to leave terminal completely type

11. Now you can click on home folder and go to
File System
12. Double Click on the directory
usr
13. Double Click on the directory
share
14. find and double click on the directory
themes (hint = just type the directory name and then press the escape key when you are in the directory after double clicking on it to exit the find directory /file function)

Hope this helps ;-) |

2. Go into the sub-directory "metacity-1"
3. Open the file titled "titlebar-mid-focused.png" with Pinta (you will need to have installed Pinta first: sudo apt-get install -y pinta)
4. From the menu options in Pinta select "Image"
5. Then Select the Menu Function "Flip Horizontal"
6. Save Your altered File
7. Now Reload the Theme
8. Your Logo should be on the left and not the right ;-) |
| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | Themes in Debian Sep 16 2012 on content Sway Themes V-1.3 All-In-One | That is a great shame the themes are not working as they do in Ubuntu in Debian. That symbol in the top right is not the Ubuntu Symbol / logo it is just something I made in Gimp and put there to help me distinguish the versions. I did intend to add other simple images for the different versions but to save time I have not progressed with this option. |
| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | Sway Themes all-in-one package Sep 16 2012 on content Sway Black-Base YELLOW | I have packaged all the Sway Themes v 1.3 into one package and here is the link...
http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Sway+Themes+V-1.3+All-In-One?content=154041 |
| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | Yes this will be fixed in time ;-) Sep 15 2012 on content Sway Black-Base ROYAL BLUE | By happen-stance the issue you mention is the next problem I chose to solve in version 1.4 with either a background image or defined colour gradients.
Please remember I have created and are maintaining 19 themes so it will take time for me to make suitable changes and apply them to all themes, upload them and then edit each page for each theme.
I also intend to possibly create a variant so users have a choice of a solid colourised or transparent top panel. |
| ![.](/img/trans.gif) | | all-in-one Sep 15 2012 on content Sway Black-Base YELLOW | I am quite happy to place all in one package and provide the link in Gnome-Look.org in a new page so there is the option to download each individual theme or all-in-one. |
