Execute the command below on the Terminal. The other way and which I will use is the command-line method. The first one is logging out and selecting the Cinnamon Desktop Environment from the logging screen. Once done, we need to switch from Gnome to Cinnamon. It might take some time depending on your system and internet connection. Sudo apt install cinnamon-desktop-environment lightdm Ubuntu Terminal
It does not come preinstalled, but you can install it using the commands below sudo add-apt-repository universe I found the Cinnamon Desktop Environment more suitable and efficient to use. Even though I didn’t consider using this Desktop Environment, you can still customize it using GNOME tweaks to have a near Windows appearance. Ubuntu comes shipped with the GNOME Desktop environment by default. The first thing when trying to customize the GUI of any Linux distribution is picking a suitable Desktop environment. We will divide our tutorials into three steps, be sure to follow every instruction explained in every step. Making Ubuntu look like Windows XP Ubuntu Desktop with Windows XP appearance Linux distributions like Ubuntu can be easily configured to mimic the graphical appearance of some of the different versions of Windows. Be sure to add the corresponding assembly to your application's reference list as a requires.Theming includes how different icons are displayed, the taskbar’s location, and even the iconic Windows XP background.
Īlso, I would recommend turning the gridlines off in your DataGrid controls (because they look horrible): To get the Aero theme to work with the DataGrid or any other WPF Toolkit controls, you just need to add a second Aero dictionary, so your App.xaml should now look like this. Maybe someone has built an extension to the Aero theme that covers the WPF toolkit controls? Again, any information you have is much appreciated. So, I'm still looking for a solution to this problem if anyone has any ideas. Using Truijens idea, I was able to get the Windows 7 look for the major controls, but unfortunately it did not work for the WPF Toolkit DataGrid control, which I need. I was thinking maybe the Windows 7 theme would just be an easy port, or exists in some file somewhere already. I'm aware of the themes project on Codeplex ( ), but it lacks support for DataGrid, which is something I critically need.
Is there any way to make a WPF app look like it's running on Windows 7 even if it's running on XP? I'm looking for some kind of theme I can just paste in.
