I'm really enjoying the new release. I never thought I was going to see Kmeleon remerge, so I'm happy to see all of the work that was done. It browses the modern web with little issue.

I was wondering if there are alternate themes or skins to download specifically for this version. I like Kute/Qute the most, but even Firefox 2x themes are nice. Are there any at this point?

No, none that I know about currently.

But it is no great job to update Yourself. See below.
The old skins work but some botton strings must be updated.


History because history plugin is not used anymore.

History{
macros(Places_History)|Histor&y
View History. Right-click for more options.

This button decativated by default in most skins should be activated now.

Browser Con&figuration{
Compact Menu
&Tools

I got Kute working to my liking. Thanks for the assistance. This setup is going to give Pale Moon a run for its money.

One more question. In the toolbar.cfg file is there ANY way to selectively delete toolbar separators?

The possiblities are rather endless, depending on what you need exactly?

If you didn't say "selectively" I would have recommed to simply hide ALL toolbar lines. But since that's nearly unknown, I'd like to advertise it a bit anyway, it's just too great for photos as background :cool:
There is a checkbox in F2 > Toolbars: "Hide toolbars line"
Unfortunately in KM74 it's grayed out it because the necessary pref is not included anymore, but am not sure if it's intentional or only forgotten, perhaps it may not work anymore on all those ultramodern systems? But everyone can simply try if it works on his machine:
Go to menu Edit>Configuration>Browser Configuration (= "about:config"), confirm to be careful, right-click in the page and ADD a new BOOL pref:
kmeleon.display.toolbars_line
Then open a new window to see the result.
And once the pref was added, the checkbox in the normal Preferences Sheets will work again.

Okay, but back to "selectively"
In toolbars.cfg, there are separators either between different toolbars or manually inserted ones (just a "-" in a line). For the latter simply delete that sign or comment out with #
The line between two neighbor toolbars you could for example get rid of by merging them into 1 toolbar, that means the second one does not exist anymore and all its buttons are appended to the first. Syntax Example:
_____________
optionscold.bmp[0]
}
# }

# &Save Page As...{
Save{
_____________

But I would rather recommend to simply move or copy single buttons into the other toolbar. A matter of copy paste the button block.

-----------

In toolbars.cfg the possibilities are really endles. For example it took me YEARS to realize, that any custom toolbar is simply created by typing some freely invented name and two { } and copy some buttons in between!
And in toolbars.cfg all buttons can have any available commands incl. macro commands or menu names.

blalbaMine{
(some bottons between)
}

A huge improvement in KM74 is now the possibility to add menus on buttons, that means not only on right-click, but also on left-click. Example:
_____________
%ifplugin bookmarks
Bookmarks{
bookmarks(Edit)|&Bookmarks
&Bookmarks

That actually is on old function, but in older versions needed this syntax:
rebarmenu(&Bookmarks) and it had the bug of showing outdated checkmarks, if it was a menu with checkmarks like "&Privacy".
