How can I change my jwm titlebar and bring metacity title bar?

Post by goutham santhosh »

Hi everyone.
I have a problem. I want to change my jwm titlebar of every window as the close, maximize and minimize button does not change with mouse hover. I have set a gtk3 theme. Everything on screen works perfectly except the window buttons.
Is there any other window manager that supports gtk3 theme or any other script or tweak in .jwmrc file or some other file that can change these buttons on mouse hover.
Please help, as I am feeling it difficult to use puppy Linux without that.

@goutham santhosh :-

Hallo, and Image to the 'kennels'.

Let me get this straight. You're telling me that if you CAN'T use your favourite theme, then.....you don't want to know? Hoo, boy; not much pressure there, then..! :D

I know JWM supports some GTK2 themes, and some GTK3 ones. It doesn't, however, support all of them, I know that. Theming is not something I've ever placed a lot of importance in, myself; I guess I've been lucky, because the few times I've tried swapping themes, it always seemed to work for me.

There ARE alternative desktops available, certainly; again, not something I've ever tried myself - I like JWM too much! - but it CAN be done. Wait for advice from others who know what they're doing with that, is my recommendation.

Mike. ;)

What exactly do you want to happen?

We always need to know what exact Puppy version you are using?????

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o
