Here is another experimental theme design for Qutiny (the file browser). Again, this is just a theme and you can restore the original ones just by selecting the theme from the Interface Theme menu. The actual color tone would be different on your computer because the overall look depends on the wallpaper in use but …

Here is the first official look of Qutiny’s completely new acrylic theme. As always, this is work in progress and the code behind it giving it this look is highly experimental. It takes a significant amount of time to get it right and that is why I wasn’t focusing on it. I wanted to get …
So after a small pause (break) in development, I decided to jump back to it and I started working on Orbitiny’s acrylic theming so here is the initial screenshot of Orbitiny’s acrylic panel along with its application menu. In this screenshot, I’ve removed all of the widgets except for the application menu for better observance …
Release notes: BugFix: Fixed “Run as Root” not working when invoking a shell script when the option is set from Orbitiny Panel’s applets (Launcher, Drawer, Quick Launch etc) New: Included and incorporated xdotool with Orbitiny. To make use of it from within Orbitiny’s session, use $XDO_TOOL instead of xdotool.
Well, that didn’t take long. Very, very sorry for these mishaps… BugFix: Fixed a disk view bug in Qutiny side bar – unmounted partitions appear as mounted. BugFix: Fixed a bug causing the default file manager not to open when mounting a partition from the desktop’s mount points context menu.

Not sure if I can make this a reality within 24 …

Everything appears to be working smoothly and as intended and non+Orbitiny customizations get applied when Orbitiny starts. It feels very much complete + I added shortcuts for bluetooth, printer settings, keyboard config, pointer / touch pad config in Control …

After a little delay (sometimes I have to take breaks), I am happy to say that the pointer configuration has also been completed and along the way, I tweaked the appearance of the Keyboard Conflagration dialog and here are screenshots of each. What I’ve implemented currently are the fundamentals only that most people would need …
Alright, the keyboard configuration has been done and the next thing on the list is mouse configuration (that will be more complicated, we”ll see how that goes) and once that is done, I will do more testing and commence preparations for Pilot 10 which will be of vital significance because this time, just like the …
