[kdemod4.1] Opera -style option

Diggy · 2008-08-17 08:26:12

Hello.
I've installed package kdemod-extragear-opera-qt4 9.51-2 and opera looks really ugly (like windows-native skin) when I try to start it with option -style oxygen.
The only which works is -style cleanlooks and I have no idea how to solve the problem

pano · 2008-09-08 21:18:27

i have the same issue!
If I use the Oxygen "Theme" with qt4, Opera looks pretty ugly, but if I change it to cleanlooks it is clearly better.
A solution could be to start it with "opera -style cleanlooks", BUT: if I use this command, opera needs ~30 sek. to start.

Diggy · 2008-09-09 03:55:54

Yes, "opera -style cleanlooks" works for me too, but this style doesn't fit global oxygen (or any other) well:)

Same issue here, with kdemod-extragear-opera-qt4-9.52-3.

Any idea whether this is an Opera/KDEmod/QT/Oxygen bug? Who should we be reporting this to so we get some results?

Thanks for the "-style" workaround, anyhow... I was trying "--style" for such a long time and was convinced this feature had been removed, since I only saw it referenced in older posts.

FYI: "-style plastique" is another option, although it is quite similar to "cleanlooks".

Bump?

qt4-opera doesnt use your system qt libraries. Instead it comes bundled with its own qt and thus can only use the styles that are included. (cleanlooks, motif, plastique, maybe a few more)

bug opera developers to release a shared qt build. And while you are at it, ask them for x86_64 qt4 build too...

And: if you installed opera from kdemod-extragear it will be started with style cleanlooks automatically, if run from startmenu...

WIth the new Opera 9.6 RC1 Release, Opera integrates itself better into KDE, because it now respects your Qt-Style. You can install it with the "opera-devel-qt4" package from the AUR

jarryson · 2008-10-03 11:46:07

right , opera 9.60 beta build 2436 qt4 verison will use your system qt4 libraries. of course include kde4 style

pointone · 2008-10-03 22:46:19

Thanks for the tip! I can finally browse the web in style with my favourite browser!

AUR rocks, don't it?

I just installed this package and it (qt styling) doesn't seem to be working here. Weird.

newest version is static again.. read the PKGBUILD, it explains how to get shared version

I don't think that's possible anymore. I get 404 when trying to pull in version 2436.

Works fine for me...

Make sure you change both the "pkgver" and "_build" variables.

I had commented out the wrong line. Works now, thanks.

Very cool. The Opera experience just got neater. Too bad qt native skin crashes.

does the skin take after the style you're using then? Maybe it's because I use bespin...

Rasi · 2008-10-05 11:27:13

I guess you would have to set bespin in qtconfig, not only in systemsettings

Maybe we misunderstand each other. I am talking about the skin called 'qt native' that you choose in the appearance box. I was wondering if that took on the styling of one's chosen qt style. The fans and such work fine.

Welcome to the world of opera... only the menus and such will use the qt theme... the rest is opera-internal...
The KDE guys complained about this several times, but this is just how it is...

I'll put the last shared build of opera into [kdemod-extragear] soon, package is kdemod-extragear-opera-qt4 ...

Its a prerelease and the GUI doesnt render 100% perfect, but apart from that it works fine.

BTW, the skin "Qt native" just uses the Qt skin of the static Qt delivered with opera and not the one installed in the system...

Just noticed that opera 9.60 is out. Now that Arch has switched to kde4, wouldn't it make more sense if Opera in the repos was compiled against qt4 instead of qt3?

Have you looked at the dependencies of opera? I have switched the i686 version to qt4. The x86_64 version is qt3, because opera doesn't provide a x86_64 package with qt4.

You can't compile opera, there is no source code available. So we have to take what opera give us.

Rasi · 2008-10-08 12:24:57

It seems the new version in [extra] has qt4 as dependency

I'm a bit thick here. I checked the dependency before posting, but I forgot to check the version number.:rolleyes: The new version hasn't hit my mirror yet.

I tried this version.. its built statically
