Make bigger the buttons of the finder (red, yellow and green)

[tirengarfio]

Hi to all,

do you know anyway to make bigger the three buttons (red, yellow and green) of the upper-left corner of the finder windows?

Unfortunately, that isn't technically possible right now. However, it is one of the rumored features in Leopard.

Is there a way now that mavericks is out?

Here is an attached artfile.bin that contains the Snow Leopard titlebar controls i.e. The traffic lights

Back up your own artfile.bin first. It is located here: "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreUI.framework/Resources". I put an alias to the resources folder in the zip file to make it easier to find

Put the downloaded artfile.bin in its place. Log out to apply the change.

This artfile only has the traffic lights modified. Everything else is from 10.9.

This will not work on a retina Macbook. Those models of Mac use a file called artfile200.bin instead.

Edit:
