Install: get gtk 2.8 source and apply the patch (see the first post)
Uninstall: just install the original gtk package back, or use the environment variable GTK_MENUBAR_NO_MAC=1 to temporarily disable it.

I'm definitely no big fan of OS X but I have to say I love their launcher. This thing looks awesome. I read the thread and I can't understand if it will work in Dapper & Gnome or not. Will it?
It seem to work on edgy and gnome but I don't know about gnome-panel though cause it seems like if you have a panel at the top you can't use it. In my case, if I ex click on the desktop I can see my top panel but I cant click on any of the icons, panels elsewhere works fine. However if I close all my apps I can click on them.
Looks lovely, but I can't try it. When I run ./compile on the patched version of gtk, it gives me an error about not being able to find libx11
Hi.. these screenshots looks great..
i am trying to do this on my Edgy..but i am having problem (cos i am newbie)
i compile and installed everything according to your steps but how do i edit the below values??
There are some environment variables to customize the menubar:
- GTK_MENUBAR_INACTIVE_OPACITY - value from 0.0 to 1.0, menubar opacity (default 0.66666...)
- GTK_MENUBAR_ACTIVE_OPACITY - value from 0.0 to 1.0, menubar opacity when the mouse hovers it (default 1.0)
- GTK_MENUBAR_NO_MAC - set to 1 to disable mac-style menubar (required by acrobat reader 7)
- GTK_MENUBAR_TITLE_WIDTH - width (in pixel) of the gradient title label, next to menubar (default 0). THIS DOESN'T WORK WITH gtk+ 2.8.x.
- GTK_MENUBAR_TITLE_FONT - text font family name for the gradient title label, (default "Times")

I'm confused and/or doing something wrong here. I'm on Dapper and trying to install this. I've got the pre-built binary downloaded. I'm trying to do the Java portion and here's what's happening.
robor007@Home-T42-Ubuntu:~/Themes/OS_X_Style_MenuBar$ javac javax/swing/JRootPane.java
bash: javac: command not found
robor007@Home-T42-Ubuntu:~/Themes/OS_X_Style_MenuBar$ javac javax/swing/JRootPane.patch
bash: javac: command not found
How do I 'run' the file to do this? :confused: Sorry, I'm not very good in Linux.
