Bespin

A widget style for Qt4
- Pretty configurable
- More Mac than Windows - but no clone at all
- Don't ask me to port Baghira ;-)

For a nice overview on how to install and some extras, see

Ok, i feel like i need to point this out as kind of "warning":

I recently uncommented and worked on some code to add ARGB support (see screenshot #2)

Please consider this code as experimental.
Afaik no Qt style has done that yet and i only rarely tested it.

You /can/ enable it at compile time, but atm i strongly discourage to use it as default setting.
(setting the background opacity to 255 will bypass the critical parts)

You (c|sh)ould instead e.g. make a preset "MyFancyARBGPpreset" and run apps you want to test exporting an environment (from a capable shell, e.g. bash)
BESPIN_PRESET="MyFancyARBGPpreset"
You can also attach this preset to some apps, but i discourage from attaching it to "bespin" (to leave preserve a GUI way back ;-)

If you encounter bugs, of course please file them - but don't be surprised ;-)

- There's a known glitch with v/h gradient backgrounds and the tilebar (the gradient is randomly not painted)
- Animated Tab transition doesn't work for design conflicts (i'd need access to the backing store)
- w/o compositing "transparent == black" i.e. window bckgrounds will darken by the amount of translucency
- Windows that XEmbed other windows (virtually /all/ videoplayers) don't work at all (and i don't know whether they ever will)
