It's a really great looking theme. I'd just like to "request" an orange version. Love the tri-colored buttons.

Could it be possible to make a variation of Alphacube that would display the application icon in the top-left corner of the window (instead of an arrow)? I've always like that :)

Btw, I quite like Alphacube :)

This, along with Alphacube GTK+ theme, is phenomenal. I love it. By the way, what wallpaper was used in screenshots 2 and 3?
Keep up the good work.

Thanks,

Yes, it does. I didn't even realize that it was a bug until I just read your post and saw your screenshot. I'll make the patch for all of the Alphacube variations and send it to Ciccio.

I tested other gtk themes (i.e. blended with round corners) and the maximized behavior was correct.

Could you please tell me the section of code in your metacity that deals with bottom maximized state corners, so I might can compare the bottom left and bottom right, since the bottom left does indeed work correctly. :)

thanks!

distance name="left_titlebar_edge" value="10"/
distance name="right_titlebar_edge" value="10"/
to
distance name="left_titlebar_edge" value="0"/
distance name="right_titlebar_edge" value="0"/

You got it dude, the new (focus/unfocus) is what I was waiting fo !!

There is something strange in 0.9 version: is the new Maximized State normal ?
I mean, the windows round corners disappeared and the windows seem to be crop at the left and right edges...

I don't even understand what you are talking about, but all I see is that the buttons need moved over and the max shaded should be the same.

Yes I confirmed, by "installing" the themes (GTK,Metacity) again.

Maybe its Ubuntu breezy that I use?

Can anyone else confirm this behavior?
