Product Description:

UNO derives from the Latin word for one.

UNO is the root of Unity.

UNO is a theme that brings the sunken unified toolbar / titlebar look & feel to every single window on your system (metal or aqua, and already unified windows as well).

On an higher level, UNO's main goal is to enhance aqua interface consistence, by making all elements look and feel as one.

UNO is aimed to those who want a clean and un-osbstructive interface while keeping the best of Aqua.The unity level proposed by UNO does not compromises overall GUI contrast: UNO and UNO shade can be mixed up in order to achieve that usability goal.

Please check interacto.net GUI section for screenshots, FAQs and more info.

Installing UNO 1.5.2 on a Mac with Mac OS X 10.4.11 and QuickTime 7.3 disables the QuickTime player ability to show any kind of video because there is no video frame inside the players window.

To correct this you have to install the Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Updater followed by the QuickTime 7.3 standalone installer.

(tested on an iMac G5 2.0 and a PowerBook 12" 1.33 GHz)

With Mac OS X, Apple introduced the new Aqua interface. Then Metal. Then the iTunes metal look.

They're all nice, but they also all offer slightly different visual cues, and different draggable areas, and different clickable areas. I find this ever so slightly annoying.

Uno fixes Apple's fragmented interface. With Uno, you get one look, the iTunes Unified look, across the whole operating system. This creates not only visual consistency, but behavioral consistency, too. The Unified look is not my favorite, but having one consistent interface, everywhere, makes up for the minor visual deficiencies.
