Description: This theme is derived from another plasma theme of mine, Silicon. It has no reflection in the widget background. This makes it very slim and it's better for rotated widgets.
I made a new theme because it really is an other style rather than a better version of Silicon.
This version supports KDE 4.3.Last changelog:
0.9
- updated to recent Silicon changes
1.91
- updated to recent Silicon changes; prepared for KDE 4.2
2.00
- updated to recent Silicon changes; ready for KDE 4.2
This is my all-time favorite plasma theme. However, when I try to use it in 4.3, it doesn't work. The plasma widgets just revert to the Air theme. I really hope you can make a version for 4.3. I don't want to use a different theme!
I have made an opaque version of some svg files, so that Perfection displays nicely without desktop composition enabled.
Here are the three files I created:
opaque/dialogs/background.svgz
opaque/widgets/tooltip.svgz
opaque/widgets/viewitem.svgz
Where can I send you these files?
First of all Thanks for the great theme. I would like to ask if it is possible to have an opaque version of the panel background. As of now there is no way to make the panel not trasparent in kde 4.2.
The only way is to use a non transparent svg image for the panel. However, I have no idea how to turn transparent gradients non-transparent! :)
by having even just the non transparent version of the panel background I can build the opaque theme myself
Thank you
Valerio
Hi, I love this theme but there is one small issue.
With the analogue clock the hands are inverted, as you can see from this screenshot:

Easily my favourite Plasma theme! It has just the right mix of eye candy and minimalism :) Thanks for your hard work.

An opaque version is highly desirable. The annoying glitches (when effects are disabled) ruin this wonderful theme.

Wonderful theme! :-D Keep up the good work!
Will you make similar theme for window decorations?

With a few themes on KDE 4.2, I found that RSSNow kind of breaks when plasma restarts. This is one of them :(
This is what happens: http://forum.kde.org/rssnow-looks-ugly-after-plasma-restart-t-30813.html

I've seen this issue too. It's the one thing keeping me from using this and silicon. They are otherwise fantastic themes.
Doh! Nevermind. Looks like it's fixed in version 2.
