Description: This is my first try at an Emerald theme, combining the OS X Aqua buttons (including glow effects) with a nice glass bar.
To apply the theme, open the Emerald Theme Manager, click on "Import", select the AquaGlassPurple.emerald theme file and click on "Open" in the lower right corner. Next, select "AquaGlassPurple" from the themes list, and it will be applied automatically. I recommend you turn off "Use Button Fade Pulse" in the Emerald Theme Manager under "Emerald settings", I find it very annoying.
The titlebar can be either normal layout or OS X layout. To use the latter: after selecting the theme from the list, click on "Edit themes" at the top. There, on the "Titlebar" tab, select "OS X Layout" from the "Titlebar Object Layout" combobox.
Note: This theme uses the "MV Boli" font for the titlebar. If you don't have it, open the included mvboli.ttf in the Font Viewer and click on "Install" in the lower right corner.
To use the included colour scheme, copy the .color file to the following sub-directory in your home directory:
/.kde4/share/apps/color-schemes
Then open the Kde Control Centre, go to Appearance > Colours, select "Aqua Glass Purple" and click on "Apply" in the lower right corner.Last changelog:
