I did not find any line with styleFile in my file ~/.openbox/rc
But I tried to copy/paste the theme file content into the rc file but that does not do anything, I
mean that colors are still the same. Maybe that my version (v0.99 under cygwin) does not support themes ?

In fact I just expect to have my title bar smooth... so if there is another way than dealing with
themes :) ?

Thanks, Mondoud

I put a copy of my ~/.openbox/rc, including the command I add to have a new theme :
