My bad, I forgot to include the style for the panelmenubar:

style "panelmenubar" = "panel"
{
engine "pixmap"
{
image
{
function = BOX
state = NORMAL
file = "Panel/trans.png"
border = { 13, 13 , 13 , 13}
stretch = TRUE
}
image
{
function = BOX
state = PRELIGHT
recolorable = TRUE
file = "Panel/panelbutton2.png"
border = { 0 , 0 , 0 , 0}
stretch = TRUE
}

}
}

note that the Panel/trans.png is simply a transparent png image - Aug 17 2009
I've been using this simple change for a while now and I haven't noticed any problems:


Add the following lines to the panel.rc file

class "*Panel*MenuBar*" style "panelmenubar"
widget_class "*Panel*MenuBar*" style "panelmenubar"
widget_class "*Panel*MenuBar*Item*" style:highest "panelmenubar"

The GTK theme uses the murrine theme. You need to install. If you already have installed it, let me know as it may be a bug in the rc file. - Oct 02 2007

Thanks for letting me know. I've found a different hosting service (hopefully a bit more reliable). The download link has been updated. - Sep 18 2007

It isn't possible without replacing the gnome-theme-manager. The patches and binaries are now included in the theme tarball.

Thanks for the good comments. I'm currently working on extending the gnome-theme-manager color settings dialog to allow setting not only the window, input boxes and selected items, but also menubars, panels, scrollbars and progress bars.

For the time being, if you want to change the saturation of the scrollbars, just edit the gtkrc file and locate the theme-scrollbar section and replace:

mix(0.5, @bg_color, @selected_bg_color)

with @selected_bg_color.

This will give a full saturation color for the scrollbars.

If you want to saturate the button-hilight, just replace the "mix" settings with the @selected_bg_color though out the gtkrc file.

I've updated the package to make the selection color stronger.

If you want an orange colored theme, simply open the theme details from the gnome-theme-manager and select the colors tab. The selected items colors controls the menubar, scrollbar and selections.

Is this what you are proposing for the GNOME PANEL section:

####### GNOME PANEL SETTINGS ###################
class "*PanelApplet*" style "theme-panel"
class "*PanelWidget*" style "theme-panel"
widget_class "*PanelToplevel*" style "theme-panel"
widget_class "*PanelToplevel*GtkToggleButton" style "theme-panelbuttons"
widget_class "*PanelApplet*" style "theme-panel"
widget_class "*PanelWidget*" style "theme-panel"
################################################

PanelToplevel*GtkToggleButton should be covered under the PanelToplevel*Button wildcard match. I've reordered the two entries. See if that helps. If not, I'll add an entry for GtkToggleButton - Aug 06 2007

Do you have the pixmap engine installed? - Aug 03 2007

This is a known issue with OO and FF. With FF, the menubar text can be changed with an entry in userChrome.css. But OO is a bit more difficult.

The problem arises because OO and FF use the MenuItem text color to draw the MenuBar entries.

I, and many other (I'm sure) are trying to solve this. As soon as something is found, I will update the theme. - Aug 02 2007
I did some investigating and I found that the firefox dropdowns use the same values as the menu "class GtkMenu".

The new file/folder on the desktop is caused by the entry:

base[NORMAL] = "#353535"

in the "theme-desktop-icon" style

murrine version: 0.52-0ubuntu1
gnome-color-chooser: no - Jun 27 2007
Could be that I'm using 7.04, who knows. BTW, nice work. - Jun 26 2007
I noticed with this theme and the other LiNsta themes that the launcher properties dialog was striped with a black background.

I've done some hacking and found that if I replace the Panel stuff in the gtkrc with the following, the panel dialogs work better:

# panel stuff
class "*PanelApplet*" style "panel-black"
widget_class "*Panel*GtkToggleButton" style "panelbuttons-black"
widget_class "*PanelToplevel*" style "panel-black"
widget_class "*PanelDItemEditor*" style "theme-default"
widget_class "*Panel*Dialog*" style "theme-default"

Your mileage may vary - Jun 26 2007
