Ubuntu Tweak 0.8.3 released with fixes

Selecting an icon theme, changing fonts, clearing cache, etc, are actions easily resolved via Ubuntu Tweak, a powerful tweaking utility that centers a massive amount of functionalities into an intuitive clean interface.

Ubuntu Tweak has been updated to version 0.8.3, presenting itself as a bug fixes release.

By default, Ubuntu Tweak comes with an Apps category, category allowing users to install numerous applications, apps exposed with readable icons, of-origin labels (such as Desktop, Development Kit, etc), descriptions, etc.

The newly released 0.8.3 version strengthens Apps' web mirrors, thus generating a more stable experience when dealing with applications from Apps.

The above mentioned feature has been implemented with transparency in mind, "the change is transparent for the users, because Ubuntu Tweak will choose one of the three mirrors automatically. And it will load the remote data only when you use the Apps feature".

Ubuntu 12.10 ships Ayatana Overlay Scrollbars, fancy, polished and effective scrollbars that contain an orange-to-red thin line (visible on windows where the scrollbars are not dragged/hovered over) and a thumb (thick component that is summoned when the user hovers the mouse pointer over the thin orange line and/or hits the right-edge of windows, etc).

Ubuntu Tweak 0.8.3 enriches its Ayatana Overlay Scrollbars approach, in the sense of introducing the ability to show/hide the thumb, meaning, navigating to Ubuntu Tweak-->Tweaks-->Miscellaneous-->Overlay Scrollbars and selecting Never Show Overlay, disables the thumb (meaning, opening Nautilus, exposes the thin orange line, hovering the mouse pointer over it, displays only the thin orange line without summoning the draggable thumb).

The mentioned features, along with various fixes (fixed crashes, improved thumbnail cache plugin, etc), are part of Ubuntu Tweak 0.8.3.
