Description: A black window border with a thin line on the edge. For the active window the line is Breeze-blue, for inactive windows it is gray. These colors can be changed by editing a single line in ~/.local/share/aurorae/themes/borderline/decoration.svg. Button icons are similar to Breeze. They turn light gray on mouse hover and blue when clicked (red for close button).
Known issues - shaded windows have misplaced lines - if you find a solution, please let me know! - application menu button doesn't have a custom icon - only possible with QML themes?

fix only buttons shown
Fixed theme after an update to KDE's svg renderer broke it.
Can't change the color for some reason.
I mean... i changed it with Inkscape but when i reload the theme it's still blue. Tried to delete icon cache or restart user and Kwin.
I don't know anything about Inkscape, never used it. To change the border color you should just need to edit the file `decoration.svg` and restart kwin with the command `kwin_x11 --replace` or logging out. If that doesn't work I don't know what to tell you, sorry. If you want to change the button colors, you'll have to edit each of the other svg files.
I edited the svg files with inkscape, the lines are red, i don't see blue. But somehow it remains blue on Kwin, that's strange. I didn't know i can edit svg files with a text editor, now i'll try.
That's great to hear! I plan on making a Plasma theme eventually, but it looks like a lot more work. Not sure when I'll have time to figure it out so don't expect it any time soon.

When I say edit, I mean just open the file with a text editor btw.

It works fine, that's absolutely a mind blow for me.
I really love the theme using it with plasma 5.12.3. Can you please make a desktop theme version of it to go with the already beatutiful window theme.
