E17 theme question [Solved]

I'm using E17-cvs from takhis on 64 bit, and I've been trying out some themes. What I've been running into is that some E17 apps don't recognize the current theme. For instance, the Darkness theme has no effect on Exhibit or Emphasis (which is really freakin' cool. I had no idea it existed until yesterday). Is this because the theme dev simply didn't handle certain cases?

App theming is separate from WM theming.  Exhibit and emphasis are both etk apps, thus you need an etk theme to change their appearance.  It's like the difference between a metacity theme and a gtk theme.

Excellent explanation. That makes perfect sense. Thanks.
