No, to me it was more about "make themes created with transparency in mind also look nice when transparency is not available". The idea of faking real transparency was not part of this.
Most created themes have transparency in mind, so this would save the user (including me) the downloading of 20 themes via GHNS, just to see that most look like crap, and it would save the theme designer the problem of having to explicitly support the non-composite case (Which most don't do anyway). > as for color matching panels and wallpapers, i've described how that could > be done. it doesn't seem there's much interest in that, however, as i keep > seeing patches that do completely different things. Yes, because the color-matching alone simply isn't satisfying. It's just a first step. Apart from that, see the other mail. I know that this discussion is over for a long time. _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
