Setting new GTK2 theme in openbox? [SOLVED]

beatepix · 2009-07-20 02:47:17

I downloaded the theme pack from this thread:

http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=74915
post #23

I was able to get part of the theme working (menu color and window decoration) but the actual GTK2 theme is being difficult. I have installed lxappearance, gtk-chtheme, and switch 2 trying all of them but none seem to want to do anything with the .theme file. Is there a way to do this manually or am I going about it the wrong way?

I use lxappearance. Copy the whole Simplicity folder to ~/.themes/, start lxappearance, and select it. It's that simple! (and there's step by step instructions in the readme file included with each of my desktops)
