Hi All
This is what I have:
FVWM 2.5.12-4
xfree86-common 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8
Debian/unstable (ppc)
Kernel 2.4.25-ben1
I'm trying to change the background color of tooltips, balloons as
they're called, IINM on FVWM and elsewhere, popping up when I move the
mouse over a browser window, the Buttons Bar etc. ... with only
very limited success so far:
I was able to change the Buttons Bar tooltips background color with
*FvwmPagerPager: BalloonBack #dcdbe3
But I'd like to set it for all programs: some sort of wildcard along
the line of
* BalloonBack #dcdbe3
I suspect this is not something I can change in the FVWM configs but
via my xfree settings (.Xresources, .Xdefaults?) .. but I'm not sure
about it.
I put new values to the .Xresources file (Excerpt):
---------------------------------------------------
! widget to turn on/off the balloon messages
Fig*msg_form.balloon_toggle*shadowWidth: 2
Fig*msg_form.balloon_toggle.topShadowContrast: -40
Fig*msg_form.balloon_toggle.bottomShadowContrast: -10
! balloon for current filename window
Fig.filename_balloon_popup*Label.background: gray85
Fig.filename_balloon_popup*Label.foreground: blue
! balloon for balloon message window
Fig.toggle_balloon_popup*Label.background: gray85
Fig.toggle_balloon_popup*Label.foreground: blue
!balloon describing drawing/editing mode function
Fig.mode_balloon_popup*Label.background: gray85
Fig.mode_balloon_popup*Label.foreground: blue
!balloon describing indicator panel function
Fig.ind_balloon_popup*Label.background: gray85
Fig.ind_balloon_popup*Label.foreground: blue
!balloon describing command panel button function
Fig.cmd_balloon_popup*Label.background: gray85
Fig.cmd_balloon_popup*Label.foreground: blue
!balloon describing unit function
Fig.unit_balloon_popup*Label.background: gray85
Fig.unit_balloon_popup*Label.foreground: blue
!balloon describing mouse function
Fig.mouse_balloon_popup*Label.background: gray85
Fig.mouse_balloon_popup*Label.foreground: blue
! balloon for depth panel
Fig.layer_balloon_popup*Label.background: gray85
Fig.layer_balloon_popup*Label.foreground: blue
Fig*Text*background: gray60
-------------------------------------------------------
I lifted the code above from a file in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/
But the code above didn't change the balloon colors so far ..
Any hint?
A man page? Some documentation, somewhere ... ?
Thanks in anticipation ..
Best Regards
w.
