So wanted to know if there is any theme which will make kmeleon look like chrome. I like Tab Bar at the top , like in chrome. The height of tab bar is more in chrome browser. So how can I achieve these things in kmeleon.

Last answer first: Yes AFAIK You can.

You may want to change to 1.6beta2 to to use some GUI changes. In 1.5.4 they are also available but not in older versions where they are prefs without GUI to set.

You need Chromes icons to skin.

I do not have them. So I base my suggestion on PhoenityAura.

A skin with some changes must be created. Duplicate the skin folder and give it the name ChromeAura or any.

There are two main options for the skin and setup.

Have a 4 button & 2 bar skin with loose Configuration button.

Set tab as normal bar. Drag Browser configuration to the top left and tab right of it. The main bar and the URL bar underneath. Needs only to add add the close button option of the screenshot below. Tab bar must be set as toolbar.

Skin code for toolbars.cfg

&Main Bar(24,24){

Back{
	ID_NAV_BACK
	Go back one page
	mainbarhot.bmp[0]
	mainbarcold.bmp[0]
	mainbardead.bmp[0]
	}

Forward{
	ID_NAV_FORWARD
	Go forward one page
	mainbarhot.bmp[1]
	mainbarcold.bmp[1]
	mainbardead.bmp[1]
	}

Reload{
	%ifplugin macros
	ID_NAV_RELOAD|Reloa&ding
	Reload this page. Right-click for more options.
	%else
	ID_NAV_RELOAD
	Reload this page
	%endif
	reloadhot.bmp[0]
	reloadcold.bmp[0]
	reloadcold.bmp[0]
	}

}

Browser Con&figuration(24,24){
	Browser Con&figuration{
	%ifplugin rebarmenu
	rebarmenu(Preferences)|Compact Menu
	View Preferences. Right-click to view Compact Menu.
	%endif

optionshot.bmp[0]
	optionscold.bmp[0]
	optionscold.bmp[0]
	}

}

Second option.

Skin code for toolbars.cfg

&Main Bar(24,24){

Back{
	ID_NAV_BACK
	Go back one page
	mainbarhot.bmp[0]
	mainbarcold.bmp[0]
	mainbardead.bmp[0]
	}

Forward{
	ID_NAV_FORWARD
	Go forward one page
	mainbarhot.bmp[1]
	mainbarcold.bmp[1]
	mainbardead.bmp[1]
	}

}

Tab/&Window Buttons(24,24){
# Chrome has its Configuartion next to the tab bar like this.
# What this cannot not do. It does not have the configuration button on the left.
	Browser Con&figuration{
	%ifplugin rebarmenu
	rebarmenu(Preferences)|Compact Menu
	View Preferences. Right-click to view Compact Menu.
	%endif

optionshot.bmp[0]
	optionscold.bmp[0]
	optionscold.bmp[0]
	}

}

Next You want to change some settings. You want this Tab Bar and on top and want to attach the tabs to it. And it has a close button on each tab.

Check the marks like in the screenshot. That should should do it.
