Hello everyone: I've been struggling to configure the look of window decorations, specifically the top, on Debian 9/Kde 5.28.0 (current stable) the way I had them on Debian 7/Kde 4.8.4. Unfortunately Kde 5 is so different that I can't figure out what combination of theme, style, color, etc... I need to match what I had. Specifically, I would like the height of the frame at the top of the windows to be less tall, but I can't find any way to do this. I can also not get the font size to change. I also liked the 3-D look that was possible in Kde 4.8.4 that I can't find any way to reproduce on 5.28.0. I include 3 small screen captures: debian-7-kde-4.8.4-top.jpg shows how I would like it to look. debian-8-kde-4.14.2-top.jpg shows the best approximation I could do on Debian 8. debian-9-kde-5.28.0-top.jpg the closest I could come in Debian 9. Note that the latter has no 3-D look and the top is way too tall. The "import <file name>" command I used to capture the images generated all kind of garbage lines on Kde 5.28.0 (Debian 9 stable). The same command worked just fine in Kde 4 on the other 2 computers. The different sizes of the images is due to the different resolutions and size of monitors on the 3 computers, the important issue is the relative size of the window frame and the font size in the frame and of the menus. The konsole windows whose tops I captured have the same apparent size on all 3 screens. It seemed that Kde 4 was much more configurable, or Kde 5 is trying to do more auto-magically, with results I don't know how to change. I would like to upgrade the older 2 computers to Debian 9 but first I want the Debian 9 desktop to look like the Debian 7 one. Can anyone tell me what I need to do? Thanks.
