Description Nikos Lefkaditis 2008-07-08 17:05:00 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

There is one thing constantly bugging me with my new desktop :) I set up my nice background, then I change the desktop theme, all my widgets and panels fit nicely with each other, but when I click on the kickoff menu I am presented with something that is not consistent at all with the general look of the desktop. Isn't it possible for it to be SVG themed like all the other plasmoids ? I know I can change the color scheme but this does only so much as changing the colors and even then it really isn't a solution as it depends too much on the user's taste which can be a problem. Like for me ! :D All in all the request is to be able to use the Glassified or Aya or any other theme for kickoff as well ! Thanks for your time and your work everyone !

I updated a few days ago to the newest nightly build and kickoff is really different now. I don't know who did it but I really prefer it as it is now :) Thank you !

I'd like to see a screenshot of this. :) I'm hoping it makes it into KDE 4.1.1 though I suspect it would probably end up in 4.2.

I think the new look of kickoff is much better.

But apart of the "frame" of kickoff being themed, there is still the not-so-pretty white center part. Would be nice if it would be themes as well.
