Upgraded to 4.9, using window decoration FormaN. Window title text now renders high and is exacerbated when maximizing a window. Text renders fine using Plastik. See screenshot attachments. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Switch to window decoration theme FormaN Actual Results: 2. Title bar text now displayed incorrectly. Expected Results: Title bar text should be centered. 4.9 Arch packages. OpenGL. Not sure if this is something that needs to be fixed with the decoration itself. Worked fine in 4.8.

It seems to only affet that particular decoration here (no other aurorae deco that i've tried shows this) Might be "intended" (anchors top) - last update of the deco is ~2 months ago. Sure your former version was newer?
I'm fairly confident it is the same window decoration version from 4.8 to 4.9, unless there is some automatic update pull through GHNS.
Most likely a bug in the theme (there are a few themes which are rather broken). The theme engine got rewritten for 4.9 so it is possible that it is now stricter concerning some things.
Okay, thanks for the info. I will switch to a different decoration in the mean time.
remove the "TitleHeight=12" (seems the only cause) key and maybe also inform the author.
it's actually a bug in Aurorae (at least according to my own documentation of the theme format). The titleHeight in this case is too small, but it could also be a small check like: height: Math.min(auroraeTheme.titleHeight, auroraeTheme.buttonHeight + auroraeTheme.buttonMarginTop)
You can change the file aurorae.qml on your system according to the diff posted in the review request to fix this issue till 4.9.1 is released.
