LibreOffice 3.6.0 skins?

Post by OOGeek »

The whole UI looks awfully bland white sort of unfinished Alpha - not even the toolbar got some texture.

Are there skins or is there a way to make it look like the old version something?

The toolbar was nicer and less bland in 3.5, no?
there should be the option to switch to the old UI skin or have the option to put an background image behind the toolbar (win7)

the current look is a plain eyesore :)

It seems the change is applied at: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice ... 4ad77be948
And it seems there is no way to force to use previous looking used on WinXP now. The condition is take from Windows API.
