I saw a commit for a cellstyle = 0 in the git logs, and while using the option doesn't cause a revert to raleigh... the option doesn't seem to do anything, at least that I could see. What is it supposed to do?
I've just noticed that in RGBA-enabled applications, there is no menu-drop-shadow. However shadow is shown perfectly in Firefox and Nautilus which are RGBA-disabled apps.
Although the output of the murrine rgba thing is quite convenient for customizing .profile, it renders dialog applications like zenity almost useless. Like this:
user@desktop$ echo `zenity --entry` #filled in: blahblah
progname=zenity; RGBA=on blahblah
So the usage of zenity in scripting gets screwed unless I go berserk with awk. Feature request: I'm not sure. There is a difference between stdout and stderr, right? Or make some .log file. Or create a verbose / debug switch to be called in .profile. I don't know how difficult it all is, so the right feature choice is up to you.
I know that the Aurora engine has something kind of like this (when hovering over widgets, there are two steps in drawing the highlight). Judging from the fact that checkboxes and radiobuttons can fade, I would also venture a guess that it wouldn't be too terribly difficult to do with Cairo. The only thing is that it might cause a fair amount of overhead, which would be completely counter to what Murrine is all about.
For some sites, I can't see text in textbox as I type with my dark skin (Neon).
Some sites show white text on black background (i.e google.com), some black text on white background (i.e searching in gmail with default theme) and some, the annoying ones, show white text on white background (i.e yahoo.com).
Or is this issue only with textbox bgcolor set to #fff in css?
I was wondering whether there is a way of rounding the corners of the gnome 'Main Menu' separately of the other gtk roundness? for example changing:
roundness = 2
to 4 or 5 in the gtkrc makes every part of the menu rounded, included buttons etc. Is there a way to do this but just for specific panel apps? would it be a case of somehow using two gtk themes?
Cheers

PS: sorry for the post in the Feature Request section... I couldnt really find any forum or anything
Dear Cimi,
What do you think about the idea of dynamically increase the widget contrast (I.e. a button) while hovering?
I think this can fit well with the focus ring concept!
Looking forward to having an answer, I thank you for your work and effort.

Well heres how it goes, Banshee's curved widgets look sweet. To the best of my understanding the kde folk have been enjoying curved treeview widgets for quiet some time now. The request is to have curved treeview widgets on a theme level. Have the themer decide whether to have curved widgets or not in their theme rather than having a per application implementation.
This would ensure that coherency stays in the gnome desktop, Its definitely the next step in theming if you ask me and most importantly, It would look really, really, really, really sweet to have this type of feature in themes.
I've found a weird thing, that is when I set glowstyle = 0, the combo box and expander are a little bit larger than other glazstyles. From the screenshot, you can see the size difference between two styles (1 pixel?)
It would be sweet to have gradients on the whole window, in particular when GTK_SHADOW_NONE is on (unified look).
I'm not so sure, but it should be class "GtkWindow" and "MetaFrames".
I'm sorry for this, but if you want to see an example, just look at any mac os leopard screenshot.
1. In firefox, combo box/entry dosen't look consist with bg_color. but it does look good while mouse hovering on it. BTW, openoffice has the same problem, but hovering doesn't make any changes.
2. Can't set progressbar/scrollbar background, they always use bg_color (lighter or darker).
3. tabs have no glows any more, it used to be similar to clearlooks/nodoka/aurora.
In thunderbird menubar items don't have the configured look but looks like menu items.. Is it a bug of murrine or thunderbird? Is there any way to fix it??
It would be nice if the progressbar animation would also work for progressbars inside of treeviews. However, this might be cpu-intensive (not sure about that) so it should be optional.
This request is a simple one, borderless video. Having a border around the video takes away from the clean look of certain themes. Currently I am using the murrine version of dust theme tweeked with the nice cream shades from gilouche instead of the cold grey.
What I found slightly disapointing was that for alot of things this theme looks great, you can tweek nautilus's and firefox's layout to give a beutifull clean bordless edge around the actual content.
Video on the other hand doesnt get the same love.
