Well, sorry, I should've said "I've never seen in other dark themes except your previous works". I hadn't seen them.
Your DeLorian-Dark is something different!
Thank you again!
Thank you for your words of encouragement. I will continue to look into the Ubuntu issue.
I like to experiment with my themes, see what happens.
Cheers!!
Nice job you've done here. Specially your gtk2 and gtk3 match perfectly, which i have never seen in other dark themes.
But i don't know what is wrong with my tabs, please see this:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/8i6mceik7469fyn/Unity%20Tweak%20Tool_006.png?dl=0
I'm using Ubuntu 14.04. Would you please think about it?
Oh, and is it possible to have panel has background like your windows? I mean has pattens?
Yeah, thats the issue I'm having with Ubuntu and tabs. I've been trying a work around and nothing has worked so far. Ubuntu has a heavely patched gtk using tabs from 3.10 in its 3.12 distro.
Ubuntus Unity wont allow a repetitive image file for the panel.
In version 3.12-05.10012014 I have added a tab fix. open the gtk-main.css and go to the bottom and uncomment on line 226 the ubuntu-tabs.css.
Hope that helps.
Cheers!
Hi again.
Well, I can't find the line you mentioned nor the ubuntu-tabs.css file.
The file I've downloaded from deviantart is "sable_3_12_06_10012014_by_killhellokitty-d7z06iz.zip".
Is the package correct?
The package is correct. install it and then go to /urs/share/themes/SableNC/gtk-3.0 and open gtk-main.css in gedit.
At the very bottom of the page you will find this line: /* For Ubuntu the following must be made active, please uncomment */
/*@import url("ubuntu-tabs.css");*/
Change it to: /* For Ubuntu the following must be made active, please uncomment */
@import url("ubuntu-tabs.css");
Save and reload the theme

Oh! This is confusing:

ls /usr/share/themes/SableNC/gtk-3.0 (Not different for ".../Sable/gtk-3.0" except for "button.png")

And there is not that specific line in gtk-main
I re uploaded the corrected package, I'm sure Noobslab will also update sometime today. Thank you for pointing out the error. I never would have noticed it if you hadn't.
Cheers
Thank you!
It fixed.
And please update gtk-main file in Sable folder too.
I also noticed that backdrops somehow interfere with compiz animations and make them so laggy. Sadly i forced to disable all backdrops in Delorean-Dark 3.1 (which I love it!) to fix that.
Do you think this is the case or my graghics can't handle it?

I'm glad we finally got the tabs working.
I haven't used Ubuntu since koala, I use Arch now; therefore it is difficult for me to say what the problem with compiz and backdrops is. The image background uses a lot of resources and it may be the culprit with compiz. I can't say for sure. Sounds to me like your best bet is to disable the backdrop state within the theme altogether. Its probably not your graphics card, just my bulky themes.
Once again you have come through with some great artwork on icons and everything involved. This theme surely is deserving of a higher rating than has been given. Love the highlight color and is well thought. Even if by chance someone does not install the theme is well worth the download to see how well thought and all the work that has gone into this theme. It takes great skill and know how to do this kind of work and I immediately knew it was yours, since you have always shown the greatest prowess here. Hope you never stop as is always awesome to see.
Its difficult to say anything other than I really appreciate your word. Its cool that you can tell my work just from seeing it. Its good to hear your words I must say I have been disappointed with the reaction to this theme. This was really difficult playing with black and all.
Best Wishes - killhellokitty

Noobslab just sent me a message that they have updated the PPA version to include the ubuntu-tabs by default.

I am sorry, it is my fault. Somehow I left out the most important change. I'll fix it today.
