| Jul 31, 2013 at 13:33 | comment | added | dfhsfhdsfdhsdfgjsfgjdsdfgjsfgj | I know how to change system wide settings, yes. I also know how to change GTK2 and GTK3 themes for single applications. But not Mutter, window decorations for single applications, that's what I need. Specifically GTK2, which don't have a trigger for dark interfaces. | |
| Jul 31, 2013 at 10:18 | comment | added | Boris Burkov | @Pyrobisqit besides, in the question edit you said, that you know, how to customize window decorator for gtk3 applications. Do you mean, you know, how to change the system-wide Mutter decorator and gtk3 theme? Or do you mean that you know, how to change Mutter decorator for a single gtk3 application? | |

| Jul 30, 2013 at 12:44 | comment | added | Boris Burkov | I got the idea. But after an hour of extensive googling I got no results. I suggest that you rename this question to "How to customize window decorator on a per-application basis for a consistent look with per-application gtk theme in Gnome3?" and make your image appear in the question. There are some words about extended window manager hints, so that application could hint the WM geometry and some settings of decorator, but this seems to be a false trace. | |
| Jul 30, 2013 at 11:46 | comment | added | dfhsfhdsfdhsdfgjsfgjdsdfgjsfgj | Well GNOME 3 has a property that allows you to set entire windows in a dark colour. Yes, including window borders, just like this 2.bp.blogspot.com/-zpAcxfFhT0s/UGhh6N-380I/AAAAAAAADH8/… (it's small but you get the idea). | |
| Jul 30, 2013 at 11:42 | comment | added | Boris Burkov | Window decorators with window titles, borders, etc. are created by your window manager, not your application. So to change the window decorator etc., change settings of Mutter. Application itself has nothing to do with them. This separation of window manager style and application style is ugly, but I don't know, if it's possible to do something about that. :( | |
| Jul 30, 2013 at 11:21 | comment | added | dfhsfhdsfdhsdfgjsfgjdsdfgjsfgj | unix.stackexchange.com/questions/14129/… is incorrect. I haven't been able to apply a dark theme to Sublime Text yet. All I have been able to do is change the GTK2 theme (and thus, window borders, Mutter, remains white, making a huge contrast with the content on the window, which is dark). | |
