KDE Korora / Mageia Desktop Theme

Sat Feb 15, 2014 12:30 pm
Hi Guys

I cant seem to work this out, I'm running debian wheezy with KDE 4.8. I'm happy with everything apart from the panel desktop theme which is currently air.

I've seen the panel used by both Korora and Mageia and I'm interested in using it. I cant seem to find out what it is though and ive searchd all over. I did change it to aya which is somewhat similar but not the same. I like the rounded pager icons as well as the overall colour and style of the panel used in those two distros.

Anyone got any ideas?

Cheers.

First screenshot indeed has Air theme, from version 4.10 or newer. Additionally, on this screenshot, the panel is rendered as it is without compositing, but looking at the toolbox, it appears compositing is active.
Note that there where some changes in the libraries for 4.10 version wrt plasma rendering/drawing/etc, which could make this version of Air render 'weird' with older kdelibs/Workspace version...
