Description:

Equinox Baery is a theme (GTK and Metacity) for the GNOME desktop. This theme uses the Equinox GTK Engine which is based on the beautiful Aurora engine. This theme is a modified version of Equinox Radiance (now called Equinox Variance). The reason I modified this already awesome theme was because I was unhappy with the dark GNOME panel. Baery has a light panel along with some other small changes.

Edit the gtkrc file. Just set the following setting to 0:
GtkScrollbar::has-secondary-backward-stepper = 0

You should update the themes dependencies since now Radiance is Variance...

-as in: Equinox Variance Glass
(green one is nice) ;)

This probably caused the theme to display improperly for many people. Thanks for letting me know! It's been fixed in version 0.9.

I think the themes based on the equinox engine look gorgeous.. probably the best. However, I was wandering why nobody is reporting the problem I'm having with this engine in nautilus(only lucid). I'm having thick borders in the side panel, and left and right in the main window. Also tried nautilus-elementary. Anyone?

I think I know what you mean. I already fixed this in Equinox Baery version 0.4. Let me know if it fixed your issue.

U r right! The thick borders in the main windows are fixed. Sorry, I wrote before testing coz I tried so many equinox themes with the same result. However..Additionally I had to add this:

GtkTreeView::odd_row_color = @bg_color
GtkTreeView::even_row_color = @bg_color

to nautilus-sidebar.

Otherwise I was still getting the same thing in the sidebar. Can U please tell me how U fixed it in the main window?

Just today I released version 0.5. I made some changes to the sidebar, it should look much better now (the thick border should be gone as well).

I have actually no idea how I fixed it. I'm new to theming myself, so I just played around with the settings a bit until it was fixed.

I have been using your theme for the last couple of days & absolutely love it. Very elegant & a perfect fit for Lucid!

Are you planning any more future releases? I'd love to see (optional) support for the breadcrump-navigation of Nautilus Elementary!

I'm glad you like it! Most credits go to the author of Equinox Radiance though, since most part of the theme is his work (I just modified gtkrc a little).

I'll see if I can get the breadcrumbs working ;)
