OSX Theme For Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 Xenial Xerus and 16.10 Yakkety Yak
This is a gnome-desktop-interpretation of Mac OSX. I've tried to implement the feel of OSX on the gnome-applications.
Initially based on the Arc-theme-files.
I've spend a great deal of time and effort on this theme into fine-tuning it, so I hope you try before you judge !
Main features:
- Nautilus with blurred sidebar.
- Same theming across GTK2 and GTK3. (See screenshots)
Seperate download for Shell-themes:
- Shell theme with white dock and slighty dark top-bar
- Shell theme with dark dock and dark top-bar
This theme is developed on Ubuntu-gnome 16.10 , so I can only vouch for this setup. It is therefore only useable on a gnome-desktop 3.20+
No support for other desktops.
When, as such, theming does not look the way it should be: make sure you have installed the necessary theme-"engines":
- The gnome-themes-standard package,
- The murrine engine. This has different names depending on your distro.
gtk-engine-murrine (Arch Linux)
gtk2-engines-murrine (Debian, Ubuntu, elementary OS)
gtk-murrine-engine (Fedora)
gtk2-engine-murrine (openSUSE)
gtk-engines-murrine (Gentoo)

How to install Gnome-OSX:
Just copy the extracted file to a '.themes'-folder you make in your home directory. Then use Tweak-tool to select the GTK and shell theme.
LOG OUT AND BACK IN for changes to take effect !
To put the buttons to the left open a terminal:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout "close,minimize,maximize:"
About the screenshots:
-First screenshot shows examples of the themed applications.
-Second and third screenshot shows the shell-themes. The dock is 'simple-dock', a gnome shell-extension to permanently show the dash.
