]]>Copying the folder
"/usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-3.0"
to
~/.config/
seems to be a "cleaner" solution and works fine too.
That worked for me like a charm, though I use Debian and Mint-X theme instead of Adwaita.
Also I don't use Arch currently but I usually get answer of my questions in Arch forum.
TNX
Check out sammy-themes, recently added to AUR for a decent theme that applies consistently to GTK2, GTK3 and XFWM. This has finally got my new XFCE4 installation looking usable.
After setting the theme for GTK2 and XFWM through the XFCE4 Settings Manager, set for GTK3 by putting this in "~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini":
[Settings] gtk-theme-name = SammyDark gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome
... or the theme name of one of the other variants if you aren't after the dark look.
Faenza-Darker works well for the accompanying icon theme.
Very nice theme. But how to fix checkboxes issue?

Just a simple adaptation of the Shiki-Colors Xfwm theme, originally created to go with the Zukitwo Dark Menu GTK theme

That works almost fine for me in XFCE. When i enable compiz with gtk-window-decorator borders DO appers but there are no buttons for minimze, maximize and close though i have enabled them in gconf-editor. If i choose metacity in fusion-icon the buttons appear. Any tip how can i get buttons on compiz with gtk-wnidow-decorator?
If I remember correctly (youll need to research this a little), there is a bug with compiz 0.8.8 and gtk-window-decorator that causes the buttons not to show up in the titlebar. I had this exact same problem about 4 months ago back when I used XFCE and compiz, and this among other things caused me to switch to the stability of Openbox. I think using the dev version of compiz will fix your problem, but since the dev version is a complete rewrite, you may have stability problems in other ways.
You are right. Now i use compiz-core-git and the problem disappears. Thanks.

Zukitwo works fine in XFCE, but you have to use the provided background for the panel (/usr/share/themes/Zukitwo/panel-background.png or smth). Looks great also.
http://i.imgur.com/KIKFu.pngDon't you have any problems with non transparent icon backgrounds? Once I set panel background to the png from Zukitwo's package, the nm-applet and xfce-power-manager icons have a default greyish background.
You probably don't have any compositor active.
