OPEN THE LARGER SCREENSHOTS IN A NEW TAB AN ENLARGE TO SEE FULL VIEWMcOS-themesThis is a repository that contains Mac OS-themes for the Linux-Gnome desktop made by PaulXFCE (myself)
These are high end and thoroughly developed GTK-themes for the gnome desktop that interprets the mac OS themes to the gnome-environment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEWUpdated the gnome versions to gnome 3.36, and added new matching shell themes.
NEWNew version (1.3) with separated back- and forward buttons in the nautilus-headerbar.
NEWAdded Mc-OS-Transparent: a very transparent version of the dark theme.
McOS-CTLina is the latest iteration in this long-running series of mac- OS GTK-themes.
Theming-wise this version builds further on top of the Mc-OS-MJV-GTK-theme. Better optimized with subtle improvements CTLina and CTLina-Dark are definitely worth updating. Gnome-shell-theme is now included.
Gnome 3.32 and 3.34 is supported. Look for McOS-CTLina-Gnome and McOS-CTLina-Gnome-Dark for the Gnome-desktop NEW: Mc-OS CTLina XFCE is now available, see here. for more details; NEW: Mc-OS CTLina-Mint is now available, including a dark version, see here. for more details;---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Older versions:
In the latest version (2.0) (McOS-MJV) I've modernized it in every little detail, such as truely rounded menu's, blue arrow-buttons on comboboxes. The McOS-MJV-dark-theme has been completely redone (visually) to look more true to the original, and look more crisp and usable.
The dark-mode is also available as a seperate theme (McOS-MJV-Darkv2.0), which has the benifit of having GTK2-applications enjoy the same dark mode.
NEW:
Support for gnome 3.32 for Mc-OS-MJV and Mc-OS-MJV-Dark. Gnome has (again) changed the theming-properties for gnome 3.32. So I'm obliged to submit yet another version... (updated)
You can download now:
- Mc-OS-MJV-Gn3.32-V2.1
- Mc-OS-MJV-Dark-Gn-3.32-V2.1
important!: These themes(mentioned just above)
ONLY work in the gnome 3.32 desktop !
NEW:
A new version (2.0) for the Cinnamon-desktop. More details
here.You can find it here also, in the download-section.
NEW:
There are now 2 new themes for the XFCE-desktop:
-
McOS-MJV-XFCE-Edition 2.2 -
McOS-MJV-Dark-XFCE-Edition 2.2 NEW:
Version 2.0 of the MJV-editions
NEW:
Updated to address issues with window-decoration giving exceptionally large resize-area around SSD-windows.
NEW:
A new version (2.0) of the McOS MJV-XFCE-Edition is available in the download-section. click
this link for more details.
NEW:
Added McOS-MJV-Gnome-3.30 and McOS-MJV-Dark-mode-Gnome-3.30
And also McOS-SPG has now a Gnome 3.30-variant in the download-section.
Because of changes to nautilus, Gnome 3.30 requires adjustments to the theme. Unfortunately these changes conflict with the old theme. So I made versions especially for Gnome 3.30. See in the 'Files' tab for the downloadable themes.
NEW:
There is a XFCE-edition of McOS-MJV available, visit
this link for more details. It is also available in the download-section of this page.
NEW:
For the McOS-XFCE-edition visit
this linkIn the download-section here you can download it too.
There are 2 versions available in the downloadable file here (Version I is for XFCE with Thunar-version below 1.8, II for version =>1.8)
NEW:
For the Linux Mint Cinnamon community here is a special version:
Visit
McOS-Mint-Cinnamon-Edition for more info.
In this download-section you can choose McOS-Mint-Cinnamon-Edition.
Careful: do not use the Cinnamon-version in the standard gnome version!NEW
How to install:There is 5 files to choose:
- McOS-MJV (the Mac OS Mojave (TM) interpretation
- McOS-MJV-Dark-Mode is the dark-mode interpretation
- McOS HS (this file contains two files, one with-/ one without transparency)
- McOS-SPG is a theme inspired by Garageband (TM) and Logic PRO (TM)
- McOS-YS is a theme inspired by the OSX Yosemite (TM) theme by Apple (TM)
- McOS-Shell-Themes contains Three shell themes
Download the file; extract it; and (in some cases ) you will find two themes. a version with transparency, another with (not-transparent); copy both files to a '.themes'-folder you make in your home directory. Or to your USR/SHARE/THEMES-folder for system-wide use (certainly for theming of SNAP-packages)
Then use Tweak-tool to select the GTK and shell theme.
LOG OUT AND BACK IN for changes to take effect !
Next OSX uses titlebuttons on the left-side:
To put the buttons to the left open a terminal:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout "close,minimize,maximize:" In Gnome 3.26 gnome-tweak has a option to change the position of the titlebuttons, so the above steps are not necessary.
Troubleshooting:When, as such, theming does not look the way it should be: make sure you have installed the necessary theme-"engines":
- The gnome-themes-standard package,
- The murrine engine. This has different names depending on your distro.
gtk-engine-murrine (Arch Linux)
gtk2-engines-murrine (Debian, Ubuntu, elementary OS)
gtk-murrine-engine (Fedora)
gtk2-engine-murrine (openSUSE)
gtk-engines-murrine (Gentoo)
"sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf" is the terminal command, usually solves the issues with GTK2.
