The other problem I came across with this theme is that the transparent background can lead to problems reading some pop up menus. The transparent background means that it can be difficult to read menus that overlie existing applications.

I have no idea how themes work or whether it would be possible to customize it so that menus overlying other windows/application had less transparent backgrounds - but unfortunately this was reason enough for me to install an alternative theme.

I hope you keep working on this theme because the idea is great. - Apr 03 2010

I am so loving my desktop since I installed this theme.

However I would have a couple of suggestions / requests.

I like to have the task bar tall enough so that you can see the icons in the multi-desktop pager.

Because of this and the padding and borders you have used it does mean that my task bar is quite a bit taller than would be ideal.

Would it be possible to reduce the amount of padding and the thickness of borders?? - Mar 15 2010

excellent theme, just what I wanted without the unnecessary frills. - Mar 14 2010

let me know if I can help with any testing - Mar 24 2010

I had this script installed and working fine. Now it doesn't seem to work. It appears to be installed and enabled, but it doesn't copy the cover into the directory any more.

I am using Amarok 2.2.2 on Fedora 12 - using KDE 4.4.1. I seem to remember there being a major KDE update in my packagekit updates recently - I wonder if that caused a problem? - Mar 24 2010

I loved this on a previous Fedora KDE installation. However recently upgraded to Fedora 12 and the now playing plasmoid seems to do everything that PlayWolf used to.

I was going to install PlayWolf but just to get the libraries I would need would involve installing 50+ packages from the Fedora repositry.

In what ways in PlayWolf superior to Now Playing? - Mar 15 2010

just realised that this issue is dealt with in another thread - and commenting out the line as suggested works a treat.

Thanks - Jun 18 2009

works for me too - Jun 18 2009

Just noticed that the album art isn't showing anymore. Also there is information missing from the information dialogue which pops up when you click on playwolf.

I'm using amarok 2.1 on KDE 4.2.3 on Fedora 10.

Any ideas? - Jun 11 2009

thanks, needed to install those libs + some others called soprano and now it is working. - Apr 19 2009

Hi many thanks for the reply. I got this far:

Any suggestions? As far as I can see I have the latest version of cmake installed from the fedora repository. - Apr 19 2009

I thought there used to be a 'how to install' option on this site. Can't see it for this plasmoid - am I missing something? I would really like to install this! (using KDE 4.2.1, amarok 2.02 on Fedora 10) - Apr 16 2009
