Miscellaneous options

There are a few options that don't apply to a single widget but affect how the theme style operates as a whole. For these options the [Misc] group was created and contains several important keys. These include:

SButtonPosition=[BottomLeft|BottomRight|Opposite]
This key controls the Scrollbar button position. The base theme style supports laying out the buttons either at the bottom left (like Next), bottom right (all the controls oriented at the bottom right corner), or each button at opposite sides of the scrollbar (Win style). The default is Opposite.


ArrowType=[Small|3D|Normal]
If you don't specify pixmaps for the arrows you can choose from two alternate arrow styles. Small uses Win-like arrows and 3D uses Motif-like ones. Normal is the default arrow type.
ShadeStyle=[Motif|Windows]
By default non-pixmapped highlights use a Win-like style. You can also specify to use a Motif-like style instead.
FrameWidth=[Num]
Some widgets will check the theme style to find how many pixels wide frames should be. You can override the default of 2 here.
ScrollBarExtent=[Num]
This specifies how many pixels wide vertical scrollbars and how many pixels high horizontal scrollbars should be. The default is 16. NOTE: Some KDE widgets fix the size of their scrollbars manually and have not yet been updated to change the extent when the style changes. The most notable of these is Konsole, but a few others exist as well. These apps have to be restarted to get the proper extent. Of course, all Qt widgets update and I have updated most KDE apps and widgets like Konq, KHtml, etc... This will be fixed before the final 2.0 release.
Cache=[Num]
The KDE theme style utilizes a cache for pixmaps and gradients. This key allows you to set it's size in kilobytes. The default is 1024, and you really shouldn't have to change it since the cache will flush itself of old entries automatically.
