ive tried fbpanel pypanel and xfce4-panel and all of them are doing the exact same thing.. sitting at the top of the screen waiting to cover the titlebar of anything i maximize.. its annoying as heck. - Dec 13 2008
i agree with you.. to a certain extent. im having problems with configuration. i use pypanel located on top. anything i MAXIMIZE ends up going UNDER the panel

Firefox, thunar, etc. all underneath. if i could have that stop id be more likely to stay in pekwm long enough to make the change. - Dec 11 2008
this is excellent. it might be nice if you did versions with menu bullets with the red and blue from the gtk used in em.. might even convince me to switch from openbox if ya did... great work! - Dec 09 2008

i really like this.. though it seems to be missing some kind of highlight in the menus.. i like what youve done but an actual flat hilight would have made it for me.. great job! - Oct 08 2007

Incredible port as usual. I took time to peak at the fluxbox one and it too is solid. I'm aware you usually use xfce and was curious when the xfwm was coming out.. i really should learn how to port these myself..
Keep em coming man.. loving every release! you and tome do some of the best work in the scene right now. - Mar 31 2007

Just wanted to say NICE WORK!
It seems every other gtk released is murrine and its always a great thing to find a one that I like enough to add to my collection.
Keep em coming. - Mar 27 2007

This should have been awarded some sort of a comment before now. Thanks for pointing me towards your theme even if it was only on account me me mistakenly using your name. It's going to make a great addition to my collection.. looking forward to more of your work!! - Mar 20 2007

You are currently putting out the most solid gtk offerings at the moment. Id be lying if i said i was using them because the colours just arent me in the last few.. BUT.. they are definately the most polished and well done.
Keep em coming! - Feb 01 2007

nothing huh? - Oct 23 2006
Wondering about some issues im having with compilation on XUBUNTU EDGY EFT using Xfce 4.4 beta 2 and Murrine 0.20

I have eliminated the problem with the vertical bars showing on the tasks portion of my xfce panel.

But now im currently having issues with the Tasks themselves.
Before each task used to show in its own little "square" something like this
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/pre1/45325-1.jpg

But currently im having a problem where the only item that shows in its "square" is the active task. The others are just plain like the rest of the toolbar. This is illustrated here:

http://img220.imageshack.us/my.php?i...rrine20ru7.png

Could u or anyone else provide me with a solution or a deb that would correct this.. without reintroducing the bars on the taskbar ( as shown here (as u helped me with on gnome-look.org)

Please and Thankyou.. I appreciate your time.

Awesome thank you.
Does doing this cripple any features of the gtk engine?? - Oct 18 2006
Hey cimi.. and everyone.
Any ideas how to fix the issue in those screenshots..
Im stumped! - Oct 18 2006

murrine 0.20
http://img129.imageshack.us/my.php?image=murrine20kn5.png

I really prefer the look of the panal in 0.12 without those vertical bars..

Youve done such a FANTASTIC job developping this engine that i hate to have it look less then perfect.. Ive removed every non murrine gtk theme from my box since about two days after my first install.

Im sure there is something i am doing wrong??

Let me know if i can help in any way.
Thanks for your time.. and i appreciate your work as always.

I love murrine gtk. but the last two releases haev caused me some annoyances on xfce 4.4 rc1 on dapper 6.06
When i use release 12 i get a nice sleek xfce panel as it is seen in my murrina rose/graphite/gperfection theme screenshots. But when i try to upgrade to either 0.13 or 0.20 i get what appears to be everything adopting the correct visual appearance ACCEPT the xfce panel. It looks 98% perfect but at each end of the task lists showing what apps are running.. i get a vertical widget kinda line at each side of it.. Its ugly and i cant seem to figure out how to be rid of it. Ive tried the install with a make install as well as creating my own deb with checkinstall.
Can anyone suggest a fix or explain what im doing wrong? - Oct 17 2006
I was really excited about ubuntulooks when it first came out. This is worlds better. In my opinion no other gtk engine even compares. - Jul 25 2006

I am in fact using xfce panel. I am currently running the svn version of Xfce 4.4 beta 2. Its improved leaps and bounds over the already great experience that was 4.2

I was a gnome user who occasionally used xfce until the svn for 4.4 was made available in the dapper repos. Since then i have switched to xubuntu and user xfce exclusively! - Jul 26 2006
Your welcome. Judgin by the votes this is being well recieved.. im glad! - Jul 25 2006
