Description: An Aurorae window decoration designed for use with the Tenuto-Light QtCurve theme (http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=121885). This version is different from the normal Tenuto-Light window decoration--it includes a blue glow around the active window.
To install: 1) Make sure you have the Aurorae theme engine installed (users of KDE 4.4 SC or later will have it installed by default). 2) KDE 4.4: Go into the KDE system settings -> Appearance -> Windows. Select "Aurorae Decoration Theme Engine" as the window decoration. KDE 4.5: Go into the KDE system settings -> Workspace Appearance -> Window Decorations. 3) Click "Get New Themes" (or "Get New Decorations" in KDE 4.5), and find Tenuto-Light-ActiveGlow in the list. 4) Click the "Install" button for Tenuto-Light-ActiveGlow. 5) Click "Close" and then "Apply"
2.0: - Updated for KDE SC 4.5, including support for tabbed windows and decoration for maximized windows. - Disabled animations to improve performance. - Disabled the text shadow (which I was using to create an "etched" effect), since it is buggy in KDE SC 4.5. This bug will be fixed in KDE SC 4.5.2. - In leiu of the disabled text shadow, I have enabled the text halo effect instead.
Known issues: - There is an Aurorae bug that causes the halo effect to temporarily appear to the left of the title bar in some narrow windows. I will be reporting this to the KDE team if it hasn't already been reported. - Occasionally, the button hover effects don't function properly (particularly on maximized windows). I will be reporting this to the KDE folks as well.
