kde4 windows decorations installation [SOLVED]

Hi,

There's a collection here, but I can't figure out how to install them. For desktop themes there's Desktop Settings->New Theme; is there anything similar for windows decorations?

you will find most of those in aur

Re: kde4 windows decorations installation [SOLVED]

I did the following, apparently successfully:

$ yaourt -S kdedecor-dekorator-kde4

No clue how to use it, though. It doesn't appear to show anywhere.
File search shows this:

$ locate dekorator
/var/lib/pacman/local/kdedecor-dekorator-kde4-0.4.0.4-1
/var/lib/pacman/local/kdedecor-dekorator-kde4-0.4.0.4-1/depends
/var/lib/pacman/local/kdedecor-dekorator-kde4-0.4.0.4-1/desc
/var/lib/pacman/local/kdedecor-dekorator-kde4-0.4.0.4-1/files

Re: kde4 windows decorations installation [SOLVED]

Yes, I've got DeKorator in my Window Decoration list

Also, I did this:

$ yaourt -S kdedecor-nitrogen-kde4

Is that what you really mean, Rasi smile ?

If I use this nitrogen, I don't need DeKorator, do I?

Re: kde4 windows decorations installation [SOLVED]

No all window decorations are completely independent... Nitrogen gives you a nice set of options that should fulfill almost any wish...
