Description:
This is an extension of the KDE Oxygen Plasma Theme,
which adds some transparent backgrounds.

I really like the Oxygen-Theme,
but I never liked these opaque dialogs and tool-tips.

This extensions adds more transparency,
but keeps most of the original.
So all credits goes to the Oxygen Team for the fine artwork.

Using this plasmoid desktop theme at the moment. Very nice.

Thanks for the compliment, hope you enjoy the theme

I find this theme pretty cool, but I found a detail a little ugly. Could you change/remove this? http://i60.tinypic.com/309q4ja.jpg

It seems the image has been fixed itself.

FragEmAll

This is sometimes caused due to the caching of images, icons and themes done by KDE. Normally a Logout and Re-Login solves this. I think this was the solution in your case also. But I'm happy you like the theme. Have fun...

moray33

Yes, after a reboot it was fixed. By the way, I noticed an issue related to this theme: the text in the shelf plasmoid appears in black instead of white as, I think, it should be, and with dark color schemes the text is unreadable in most cases. In the original Oxygen theme the text is white.

FragEmAll

OK - This is one of the few plasmoids I never tried. But I see the problem, it's not very good readable, especially when you use a darker wallpaper. I will look into it on the weekend, if I can find a solution. But I'm afraid that the switching font color is more a feature of the plasmoid, to deal with different backgrounds - but let's see what I can do.

FragEmAll

Please try the new version. On my test installation it worked fine.

It's much better now!

I use DSX desktop with Oxygen-Transparent (NOT transparent-oxygen) and except for the 'glow' on the widget borders, this is the closest i've come to full transparent.. I'm working on the svg borders elements and will offer when done, if i get to it... Thanks, Landis.

FragEmAll

Hi Landis, sounds good. I'd like to see your work, so give me a note when your done. Thanks.
