AFAIK in the newest KDE Aurorae engine was refactored, and the decoration is not rendered the same way as before. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Chrome Drak theme (for example) - https://github.com/warvariuc/chrome-dark 2. Apply in KDE 4.8.5 and in KDE 4.9.1 3. Maximize a window and see the difference Actual Results: In KDE 4.8.5 in maximized state the window title bar doesn't have a top border. In KDE 4.9.1 the title bar has a border which should be visible in a non-maximized state. Expected Results: The decoration should be rendered exactly the same way - pixel perfect.

> pot. related to bug #304822 and possibly bug #304791 nope, I'm actually aware of that regression. It's already on my TODO stack for this week.
for the record: I have a fix but it revealed more bugs, so I doubt I will feel satisfied for 4.9.2.
Git commit fd1e76c03ea8701b6118016a3864b315bf09cbda by Martin Gräßlin. Committed on 25/09/2012 at 22:26. Pushed by graesslin into branch 'KDE/4.9'. Fix enabled borders and padding for maximized Aurorae decos In the maximized state the enabled borders were still enabled causing the actual borders to be still shown. In addition the padding is not adjusted to be 0. This is done in the C++ part is it does not make any sense to have shadows being thrown to another screen for a maximized window.

The bug does not seem to be fixed in 4.9.2. My distribution - USU (Kubuntu 12.04 based), with KDE installed from https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backports Actually, all Aurorae-based themes I've tried since upgrading look broken.

Here is the theme I've tested with: http://opendesktop.org/content/show.php/USU+8.1?content=154633 The same happens with Air-oxygen and others.
Sorry for the double post, but forgot to mention - the window titlebar should look exactly the same in both states. It looked OK before upgrading to 4.9.2

Btw, this theme is created by me, and if it's a theme bug which was hidden before, I will fix it as soon as I find out what is causing it. If it's a theme bug, it's shared among many themes (at least on my PC). Btw, on some themes the bug is more noticeable when the desktop effects are enabled.
(In reply to comment #14) > If it's a theme bug, it's shared among many themes (at least on my PC). It's not a theme bug, the theme is pretty good, it is more complete than most themes. For this particular issue I created now bug #308248. Please try the attached patch.
