Configuring window title bars

My system is Fedora Core 6, running the KDE desktop.

I've got my desktop fairly close to the way I like it. I'm
using the
style "Plastik" with "BII" window
decorations. 

I like the abbreviated title bar at the top of the window.
The one
thing that I'd like to change is that the title bar fades
in
background color from the top, to the bottom. I don't want
it to fade,
I want it a solid color, but I can't figure out how to do
so.

The weird thing is that I think that the title bar is solid
on my work
computer, though when I ssh -X in and call up a window, I
see the
fade. That is likely because of the window being on my home
desktop
machine.

Is there a dotfile I need to wrangle, because I can't find
the value
in control center.

Hi,

You can set the primary and secondary colors for a gradient
fade of the title 
bar here: Control Center -> Appearance & Themes ->
Colors. To set a solid 
color, just set the same color for both "Active Title
Bar" and "Active Title 
Blend". If this still produces a gradient fade, that
would mean that the 
window decoration you are using does not honour the color
settings and uses 
hard-coded ones, or has a configuration option for itself
(seen in Appearance 
& Themes -> Window Decorations). As far as I can see,
the B II should work 
just fine after you change the colors.

Best regards.
