I tried Manjaro and noticed that Breeze dark kwin decoration looks different than in Kubuntu or KDE Neon.
Where I can download original kwin decoration? Or how to locate install folder on Kubuntu so that I can just copy it? On KDE look I have not found original breeze. I found https://github.com/KDE/breeze but it looks like something to compile. I downloaded breeze and kwin-style-breeze deb files and unpacked it but there is nothing in it that would look like something I can put to my user folders. It would be great if the whole Breeze pack (both dark and light) could be available as ready to download and put to user folders (on /home) as Look-and-Feel meta themes from store.kde.org. Of course each distribution with Plasma has it as default but there are some modifications. And user may want to do their own modifications based on original Breeze pack. |

The Breeze KWin window decoration is implemented in C++ source: https://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/ ... coration2/. It is not a decoration theme. The decoration themes can be installed with the 'Get New Decorations' - $HOME/.local/share/kwin/decorations/...

kwin-style-breeze can be downloaded
https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/amd6 ... e/download or https://debian.pkgs.org/9/debian-main-a ... 4.deb.html and unpacked. As I understand when it is installed from deb it doesn't compile anything but only places files from deb in appropriate location. Correct?
So, can I just copy from one distro to another whatever it is, C++ or anything? |

You could try to install the breezedecoration.so to the correct Manjaro place but there is no guarantee it will work. There could be the Qt version mismatch etc... |

Posting images of the two "versions" of the theme is useful to see what is different.
Is it just the colors used (which are determined based on the system color scheme), or are there differences in the shapes, gradients, shadows, animations, etc between the two?

I was absent-minded. Now I discovered that in Manjaro they have options for breeze kwin decoration in system settings and I used them to change look to my liking. So, my problem is solved. However I will have to learn more about creating Look-and-Feel meta themes.
