Another solution is to install emerald version 0.9.5 via PPA :

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install emerald

After installation, press Alt+F2 and type emerald --replace.

And if u want to get back to gtk themes press Alt+F2 and type gtk-window-decorator --replace.
