The look of Ubuntu is ugly. One can change its appearance to a Mac-like one by himself. Here is an example I tested on my Ubuntu. So far so good.
The Docky I used is Cairo-Dock. It is fast and lightweight with good reviews. In addition, it can be installed through Ubuntu Software Center (USC). Just search Cairo in USC and install it. The only problem with it is the log-out command in the power menu might not work while the one in Cairo-Dock's menu can.
Then let unity launcher automatically hide by the command
Appearance ->
Behavior and
turn off. One can also change the Reveal sensitivity here.
The Mac OS themes, icons and cursors I tested is NoobsLab's version which can be installed by the following commands.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:noobslab/themes
|
sudo apt-get update
|
sudo apt-get install mbuntu-y-ithemes-v4
|
sudo apt-get install mbuntu-y-icons-v4
|
Then open the Unit Tweak Tool to choose the theme, icon and cursor you like. The appearance can change immediately corresponding to the option chosen. These schemes can be removed by the following command.
cd /usr/share/icons/mac-cursors && sudo ./uninstall-mac-cursors.sh
sudo apt-get remove mbuntu-y-icons-v4 mbuntu-y-ithemes-v4
