Re: My New Linux Mint LMDE desktop
What did you use for setting panel transparency? I always ended up with he panel going transparent but the applets staying opaque. I know I've done it right in the past, I just can't remember how now. I know it's not using compiz, because it has useless "real" transparency and makes text invisible as well.
Re: My New Linux Mint LMDE desktop
forgive my ignorance, but all I did was install Macubuntu, change the wallpaper and select which dock look I liked. Whatever LMDE uses for 3D is the default, I assumed it was Compiz. Maybe not.randomizer wrote:What did you use for setting panel transparency? I always ended up with he panel going transparent but the applets staying opaque.

It might have to do with what icons you use. I noticed the calculator icon was opaque so I removed it.

Oh sorry, I was referring to M4t3us. I didn't even notice your post above. I guess that means i should be in bed already

Very nice work, all you need to complete your mac look is to use Global Menu.

Some of the themes make the applets appear opaque, it's only a matter of looking through them and see which give you full transparency.randomizer wrote:What did you use for setting panel transparency?

EDIT: If you customize the theme in the gnome appearance window, browse the control themes till you find one that makes the applets appear transparent like the panel.
Instead of docky, use Cairo or AWN they're far more feature filled(awn) and more visually pleasing(Cairo)lKingjr wrote:well, since I started this thread, I thought I would post a link for all the Mac lovers/haters out there.

Re: My New Linux Mint LMDE desktop
I'm running an LXDE desktop, so I try and keep things simple. While a Mint Debian LXDE spin would be nice, it's so easy to set up an LXDE session, I'm not sure it's even worth it.
