Mac os aqua gtk theme

Mac os aqua gtk theme

(Formerly known as Gnome-OSC-themes)

This is a repository that contains Mac OS-themes for the Linux-Gnome desktop made by PaulXFCE (myself)

These are high end and thorougly developed GTK-themes for the gnome desktop (3.20+ through 3.28) that interpretes the Mac Os themes to the gnome-environment.

In the latest version (McOS-MJV) I’ve modernized it in every little detail. There is nothing (not a single item) that is not new. Resulting in a completely rewritten GTK.CSS-file. it also contains the dark-mode (for applications that use it)

The dark-mode is also available as a seperate theme (McOS-MJV-Dark-Mode), which has the benifit of having GTK2-applications enjoy the same dark mode.

This is a gnome-interpretation of the Mac OS Mojave (TM) desktop, with the benifit of the dark mode

MC-OS-MJV-Dark-Mode :this is the gnome-interpreation of the Mac OS Mojave-dark-theme (TM)

This one contains the Mac OS High Sierra (TM) interpretation ( McOS-HS)

This older theme is the gnome-adaptation of the OSX-Yosemite (TM)

And finally a gnome-theme based on the looks of Logic Pro (TM) and Garageband (TM) called: McOS-SPG

First: Download the file; extract it; and somethimes 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 !

Second: McOS 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:»

To put the buttons back to the right in case you want to revert:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout «:minimize,maximize,close»

In Gnome 3.26+ gnome-tweak has a option to change the position of the titlebuttons, so the above steps are not necessary.

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.

Microsoft had a secret Windows XP theme that made it look like a Mac

Say hello to Microsoft’s Aqua Mac theme

Share All sharing options for: Microsoft had a secret Windows XP theme that made it look like a Mac

Microsoft created a secret Windows XP theme that made the operating system look more like a Mac. A recent Windows XP source code leak has revealed Microsoft’s early work on the operating system and some unreleased themes the company created during its early XP development back in 2000.

One is labeled “Candy” and includes a design that closely resembles Apple’s Aqua interface that was first introduced at the Macworld Conference & Expo in 2000. Although the theme is incomplete, the Windows XP Start button and various buttons and UI elements are clearly themed to match Apple’s Aqua.

Microsoft never released its Aqua theme for Windows XP, and we understand it was used in early source code for the OS. Windows developers appear to have used the theme as a placeholder to build the theme engine for Windows XP. The theme itself is described as a “Whistler skin with eye candy,” and marked as “for internal use only.” Whistler was the codename for Windows XP.

Windows XP aqua buttons.

Microsoft famously moved to a blue and green Luna theme for the final version of XP, which many dubbed Fisher Price-esque when the OS was originally released in 2001. The theme engine in Windows XP was a major update to the OS, allowing for third-party themes and lots of customizability.

Microsoft was developing Windows XP during an era when there was fierce competition with Apple over desktop operating systems. Later in the ‘00s, Apple poked fun at Microsoft with banners at its annual developers conference stating “Redmond, start your photocopiers.” Apple also ran a Get a Mac ad campaign focused on the flaws of Windows, and in particular Windows Vista.

During the ‘90s and ‘00s, Windows was heavily influenced by the classic Mac OS and what later became OS X. Apple has also borrowed some Windows features, particularly around windowing, navigation, control panels, and browsing files and folders.

The leak is a rare insight into the early development of an operating system used by millions. We’ve reached out to Microsoft to comment on the unreleased Windows XP theme, and we’ll update you accordingly.
