There is currently no GNOME Shell theme for the XP collection

Hi

I'm unable to get the normal task bar as seen in https://b00merang.weebly.com/uploads/1/6/8/1/16813022/449303749-orig-orig_orig.png

I've tried https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1160/dash-to-panel/, but that enables background matching theme for the panel. See https://users.no/index.php/s/RYGkrqIUK56VSWm

Any tips?

@Elbullazul You're

The header bars are the same grey as the rest of the window unlike how they appear in the screenshots (and in the actual OS). Is there any fix for this?
I'm running Ubuntu Gnome 17.04 (Gnome Shell 3.24.2)

The Windows 8 icon set is now on GitHub:

I tried the Embedded theme, and this oddity happens: (Look at window)

Also, @Elbullazul , you may want to borrow some code from the plex port to make the menu work properly...

Hello! I love the Windows9x theme but I am having a problem. The checkboxes do now show up. This happens to a few of the themes in the repo. When I right click the desktop there is an empty space where the checkboxes should be (Next to Keep Aligned or Organize Desktop By Name). The Windows 95 theme works fine so I am using this for now. I am using the latest version from git as of when this issue was posted.

Here is the issue in action:

EVERY theme that you have a Cinnamon theme for has had their menus broken by Cinnamon 3.2 which means you just get the Cinnamon theme's menus instead...

On your screenshot of 3.1, there's some Cinnamon Settings icons whilst on the icon set you linked to in the suggestion, it's missing those icons and you just get something like this:

I don't see much maintenance going on - seems like the WindowsXP project is dead, too.

I have an issue on the latest version of Cinnamon. I am using the XP Themes. All themes are strange looking.

I just realised that the version of Basic I put in the Pull Request didn't have the Show Desktop button thing on it, so here's the version with it (and a feren OS orb):

Just got the latest version of all your themes to discover to my dismay that the menus still don't work properly in 3.2...
Here's a screenshot:

Also, in XP Themes, it doesn't show the correct menu background on CinnVIIStarkMenu

Error on xenial gtkwidgetfactory.
You are free to import condos-clasic theme based on adwaita gtk3.18 on your theme set.May I propose a Windows aero theme version here for you?

I was wondering, since there hasn't been a Windows XP Silver nor Windows XP Olive theme on Cinnamon for a while that is complete, would you mind doing a Silver and Olive Green variant based off of CinnXP but with the headerbars on your XP themes? BTW, I don't care as much for Olive, but mainly Silver, Silver was my favourite theme in Windows XP for a long time...

Hi !

The se7en theme is really perfect on Linux Mint 18 but since last Cinnamon Update in Mint 18.1, there is a color problem and we get Grey instead of Blue. Minor improvements have to be done to fix that.

Thanks for the amazing work !

I'm not sure why this is happening. You can see the icon is too big and that it has an ugly frame around it. The applications menu does not, as seen here:

I'm not totally sure what's going on, but I thought I'd point it out.

Hello

I have the issue noticed in title with Windows Vista them. This is the screenshot taken from Libre Office.

I would like also ask for permission to use this theme for Bodhi Linux distribution.

Thank you

I have used the Windows 7 Basic window borders on cinnamon before, but now they don't work. Please help.

./script theme-archive-name

only supports single archives at the mioment
maybe can be extended to load from github if git installed too.

What the title says since Vista made the taskbar an opaque black when a window is maximized.

Hi, I really like the W10 Light theme, and was wondering if you have plans to update it, or put it on Github. I would be willing to submit a pull request with some quick fixes for Cinnamon 3.2.

Thanks.

Hi,

bluedxca93 here. Can you please move padding value from .menu and GTKComboboxmenu to .menu .menuitem thx. This bug cause drawing issues on 16.04 once drawing a menu.
Implementing the padding only in .menu.menuitem and other child classes fixes the weird replicating of right and bottom border.

looks like
______I I
______I__I

should be simply:
I
___I

instead of:
.menu {
padding: x;
}

write:
.menu .menuitem {
padding: x
}

possibly this works too for something:
.menuitem:nth-child(last)
bla bla bla.

Don know if youre interested but:

gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.interface icon-theme 'iconthemename'
gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'themename'
gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.wm.preferences theme 'themename'
gsettings set org.cinnamon.theme name 'themename'

for gnome/unity replace cinnamon with gnome. Set in iconthemename with desired icontheme and (gtk) themename.

Nortamlly this message would had been send as an pm on gnome-look, but since this site behave like a living zombie its written down here.

kind and best regards

I got fresh copies of Windows 7 and Windows 10 themes from the Repository for testing under the Cinnamon 4.0 available in the Linux Mint 19.1 Repository, and here's the breakages, new bugs, etc that I've seen so far:

• [Grouped Window List] New theming classes are needed to theme the Grouped Window List applet, as it uses different theme classes to IcingTaskManager
• [Panel Height] Choosing a panel height for your theme seems to be ignored from now on, due to no longer having the option to have the theme suggest a panel height

Apart from that, nothing really broke. c:

The selection colour on an icon on the desktop using the Vista GTK theme is completely black without hover and the label isn't even highlighted at all excluding the white text...

The current themes don't work in GTK 3.20 due the CSS changes.
https://blogs.gnome.org/mclasen/2015/11/20/a-gtk-update/

Please update the themes which you've done the Windows 7, Vista theme and please fix the StarkMenu theme. It display's a grey theme especially in the calendar section I would like to use the Vista theme but its not yet compatible with the latest release for both Cinnamon and StarkMenu.

If you are prepared to could you do a vista theme for the File Manager etc under the "controls" section of Cinnamon settings and a vista theme for the window manager?
