    Lightbulb Another os x look-a-like.

    You know Mac4lin, it doesen't really look like mac. The menubar/objectbar is all wrong and many people puts loads of gadgets and stuff to the desktop.
    Mac isn't like that, mac is clean.

    I've been looking at the leopard guided tour a couple of times and I felt ready to do my own look-a-like. And so I did.

    If you like it, I can make a guide later on , because I did only put applets and themes together.
    Tell me if I should change something

    Great work Osborn . I'm no fan of the Mac look a like themes but this one's ok.

    The only little problem I see in it is that Home Icon in the back window, seems to be sticking out a bit too much...

    Great work!
    Put this in the .gtkrc-2.0 file if you want to the scrollbars look like more how they look in mac os x

    Code:
    style "scrolledwindow-style" {    
        GtkScrolledWindow::scrollbar-spacing = 0
        GtkScrolledWindow::scrollbars-within-bevel = 1
    }
    
    style "scrollbar-style" {
        GtkScrollbar::has-backward-stepper = 0
        GtkScrollbar::has-forward-stepper = 1
        GtkScrollbar::has-secondary-backward-stepper = 1
    }
    
    class "GtkScrollbar" style "scrollbar-style"
    class "GtkScrolledWindow" style "scrolledwindow-style"

    Re: Another os x look-a-like.

    please write a guide how to achieve this

    i have played around with a mac look before, but i would like to scare the creeps out of my roommate (a mac lover)

    btw, we have 3 people living in our flat right now... one using windows, one using mac and me... using linux

    every day is like the youtube video

    Re: Another os x look-a-like.

    Just get rid of the little arrow on the menu icon, and stop the titlebar of the inactive windows from being transparent (unless this is a feature of OS X... it doesn't look too good).
    Other than that, I think it looks great.
