Description of problem: .gtkrc-2.0 is being ignored Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): XFCE 4.4.2 How reproducible: Add this to you .gtkrc-2.0: (should make text red by default on the panel and works under gnome but not under xfce) style "panel" { fg[NORMAL] = "#ff0000" } widget "*PanelWidget*" style "panel" widget "*PanelApplet*" style "panel" widget_class "*Applet*" style "panel" class "*Panel*" style "panel" widget_class "*Mail*" style "panel" class "*notif*" style "panel" class "*Notif*" style "panel" class "*Tray*" style "panel" class "*tray*" style "panel" (just some sample code that i found on a mailing list somewhere) Actual results: Nothing changes Expected results: The text of anything on the panel should be red. It works fine under gnome with gnome-panel but simply isn't working under xfce4-panel (perhaps under all xfce4 components?).
You might take a look at: http://wiki.xfce.org/tips#gtkrc_files In particular I think you need: widget_class "*Panel*" style "panel" Can you try adding that and see if it works?
hmm.. i tried something like it but that didn't seem to work. with widget_class it WORKS! Thanx for the help. marking this bug as: "NOTABUG". Mark.
