This kde menu


Hi guys, i like kde quite a bit, but am not entirely happy with the kmenu, traditional menu or even lanceelot.
I found this image somewhere where the menu looks to be similar to what i'm looking for. Where can i get this menu from.

Thats the classic menu.

Unlock your widgets, right click on the launcher, and choose 'switch to classic menu style'.

Hi, is it? I am already using the clasic menu, becaus of my previously stated dislike for the other menus. I do like the clasic menu, but it looks different to that one. My clasic menu doesn't fit with the rest of my desktop; it's very plain, gray and smaller in size then the one in the picture. How do i make mine look like that.

You'll have to twiddle with the desktop effects to get the look exactly right. But the menu layout itself is classic.

I'm sorry but are you absolutely sure? I have open gl effects enables and can't see anywhere that the menu can be resized or made to suit the themes.

The hint is in the pic (it normally is with those sort of screenshots). Look at the chromium listing in the task bar, you can see 'oxygen-transparent'.

I'm not 100% sure it will do what you want, but it sure looks like its worth a shot.

Ok, great thanks, it's all good and working now once installing that theme. It's a very nice menu. I love the concept behind the theme, but unfortunately it's inconsistent with the applications it works on. An example being the terminal just doesn't work the way it should. Either way, good work on the developers behalf and i thank them
