This theme is really great!

On mine it doesn't show like on your preview. The Date at the bottom left is partly out of the main box. By 5-6 characters too many on the left, so the day (Mon, Sat, etc.) is always outside and some characters as well.

I tried editing the xml config file and enlarging the width of the main box but it didn't change anything. Unless I need to send a command so that it keeps it in memory, I don't know.

So can the padding or X,Y of the Date section be changed? If yes how?

tnx

you have to go at the section buttom bar where after then you can try settings for clock and try to change <pos before <normal in the X or Y depending what you need.

True! It was "clock" I needed to search for, doh!! loll Not "date" or "time".

It works, I have changed from 240% to 300% and it's now indented to the right, great I can tweak other things if I want, now. :)

Easy to test, just log off session and you'll see the instant change!

This theme is so freakin' beautiful!!

tnx

I use your splash and want to match with the kdm theme.

But how surprising, after googling I was unable to install it.

I tried different things and editing kdmrc files as well, didn't work.

Tried also the following:

1:- sudo zypper in kdebase3-kdm (I already had the kdm package)
2:- extract 'NewEssenceFinal' into '/opt/kde3/share/apps/kdm/themes/'
3:- yast2 -> system -> sysconfig editor
3a:- navigate to 'Display Manager' then change 'DISPLAYMANAGER' field from 'kdm4' to 'kdm' (NOT kdm3!)
3b:- navigate to 'Display Manager' then change'DISPLAYMANAGER_KDM_THEME' to 'NewEssenceFinal'
4:- konsole and type 'kcmshell kdm'

I use openSUSE 11.2 64-bits.

What am I missing?

tnx! :)

Hi,
this Kdm is only for KDE4.x.
I use Mandriva and to install it i have to extract the folder from archive and copy it to /usr/share/apps/kdm/themes/

Ok tnx for the tip, I found it. It's a little different in openSUSE, so for those people, here goes:

On 11.x versions, you have to extract the theme to /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes and then go to YAST, etc/sysconfig Editor, under Desktop>Display Manager>DISPLAYMANAGER_KDM_THEME and type in NewEssentialFinal.

Reboot. :)
