Description Aleksandra Bookwar 2011-04-13 17:47:05 UTC
There are now following different theme settings in gnome:

metacity*.xml for window manager
gtk2
gtk3
gnome-shell theme
icon theme
(and probably color scheme)

Instead of splitting theme settings in different tabs (Shell, Interface and so on)
it is better to create one tab Theme in gnome-tweak-tool, to put all these settings together.

Agreed. This would be a nice feature.
Comment 2 Owen Taylor 2011-04-13 18:12:05 UTC
From the perspective of the GNOME Shell team, GNOME Shell themes are both not interesting and not supportable ... we cannot commit to any stability of the CSS class names or actor hierarchy, but what GNOME Tweak tool does is up to the GNOME Tweak tool maintainers.

I'm supporting GS themes (e.g. from deviantart) because

1) they exist
2) they are nice
3) I can do it in such a way, via the usertheme extension, that prevents people rooting about in /usr/ and overwriting GS theme files.

If some agreement between theme authors emerges then I suspect g-t-t might version themes by the G3 version number.
