material-decoration-bt

Material-styled window decoration theme for KWin. Resembles the decorations in Windows 10. Extensive customization possible through src/Decoration.cc; theme also takes colors from the user's color scheme and KWin window rules.

Kvantum theme recommended for use with this theme overall: https://github.com/Luwx/Fluent-kvantum

If you so choose to use the theme above, place this color scheme in ~/.kde/share/apps/color-schemes/ ; it should blend in with Fluent Kvantum if you choose not to use top toolbars.

Features of this fork

• Consistent shadows with great contrast (from the Breeze theme)
• 0.635 opacity by default, picked by trial and error to blend in with the themes above
• Automated installation
• Changing opacity via terminal
