Berzerker Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 It makes Leopard so much more prettier. http://osxdaily.com/2007/11/11/get-itunes-...c-os-x-leopard/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/73173-how-to-get-itunes-style-scroll-bars-in-leopard/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
idividebyzero Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 does this work on a hackintosh? Theres a PPC and Intel version like the skin packages on other sites, and those dont work on a hackintosh because they check system ID's or something, so this may not work too. edit: nm it works, at least with EFI. Much cooler looking, especially in Safari Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/73173-how-to-get-itunes-style-scroll-bars-in-leopard/#findComment-517540 Share on other sites More sharing options...
apowerr Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Nice, really makes OS X look more unified. I still don't get why Apple didn't find it necessary to fix up the scroll bars some for Leo.

sg Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 i'm confused, so because 1 app decides to use custom scroll bars apparently the entire OS is not 'unified'? you guys are dumb. the 'normal' aqua bars are unified and also change based on the colour theme you use in the appearance systems-prefs.

scj312 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 The only "iTunes-like" controls in Leopard are the toolbar icons. Having iTunes scrollbars just makes the aqua buttons, the list headers, and dropdowns look like {censored}.

idividebyzero Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Its more unified because of the new look to windows, and other than pop up ok/cancel windows they also got rid of the glossy aqua buttons. Yes it looks stupid with the list view but the list view looks stupid regardless of the scroll bars, those aqua tabs only looked good with brushed metal (and even then they didnt look that good), Apple really neglected the look of lists in Leopard like they didnt think anyone would use it. Aqua is just a dated look and anything that gets rid of even some of it is a good thing.

sg Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 where the aqua/glossy look shows up: -open/save dialogue (bars) -drop down menus -sliders -buttons -checkboxes -tabs ok so thats a quick list i've come up by just looking at system prefs. don't confuse the 'toning down' aqua look removing it. if you've been a osx user at all since public beta, you'd see how each very streamlines aqua and makes it less 'out there' and more refined. so based on that, itunes is the problem and not the finder (or the rest of the operating system).

But if you change the Appearance to Graphite, it all fits in much better.

idividebyzero Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Aqua does not go with the new shaded windows. End of story. Thats why it is not unified. Aqua barely went with brushed metal but it looked alright, but it now clashes with the new look to the windows (lists look HORRIBLE, like a completely different theme). The buttons are fine since they arent on the shaded windows, theyre on the traditional light background. The problem is all the aqua that appears with the shaded grey theme. It has nothing to do with itunes looking different. It has to do 100% with the windows being changed but neglecting the scroll bars.
