The most traditional--and most complicated--approach to tweaking
Ubuntu is to use the CompizConfig Settings Manager, which is
available in the Ubuntu
Software Center. This tool includes an Ubuntu Unity Plugin among
its Desktop options, and that plugin can be used to configure various
aspects of Unity. There are actually step-by-step instructions for
doing it this way on
How-To Geek. Be warned, though, that it's not always a
straightforward process, especially for the beginner. Easier
approaches are now available, such as via the following two tools.
Late last month the Ubuntu Tweak development team announced
the release of version 0.6.0 of its popular open source tool for
customizing Ubuntu. Targeting Ubuntu
11.10, or “Oneiric Ocelot,” the latest version of this
application lets users tweak their installations via desktop and
system options that Unity doesn't provide. Twelve key areas of
Oneiric Ocelot can be customized using Ubuntu Tweak 0.6.0, and Unity
Settings are included for the first time, giving users an easy way to
change the behavior and size of the desktop's Launcher, for example,
as well as the Dash size and even blur type. The software is now
available for free download from the Ubuntu
Tweak project site.
3. MyUnity
The Ubuntu Tweak tool has been around for a while, but a newer
alternative recently emerged in the form of MyUnity. This tool gives
you another way to modify Unity's Dash, Launcher, and Panel, as well
as font settings and Dash blur, among other features. Starting with
Ubuntu
12.04, “Precise Pangolin,” MyUnity will reportedly
be included in the Ubuntu Software Center. In the meantime,
instructions for downloading and installing it are available from
the software's Italian developer (scroll down on that page for
the English version).
