I've been teaching myself how to use colorsets in version 2.5.5,
and also the TaskBar (Macintosh-style, across the top.)
I have my own simple theme-changer setup where I load a small file
that contains button styles, menu styles, title styles, and colorsets.
I put something like this in the theme file:
*FvwmPager: Colorset * 2
*FvwmPager: HilightColorset * 3
*FvwmTaskBar: Colorset 2
*FvwmTaskBar: IconColorset 0
*FvwmTaskBar: FocusColorset 2
*FvwmTaskBar: StartIcon buttons/knot_blue.xpm
Then, when I want to change themes, I have a little function that
reads the decor file and re-starts the TaskBar and Pager:
AddToFunc SwitchDecor
+ I Read $./$0
+ I KillModule FvwmTaskBar
+ I Module FvwmTaskBar
+ I KillModule FvwmPager
+ I Module FvwmPager 0 2
This works to give the TaskBar and Pager the new colorset. But no
matter what I do, I can't change the TaskBar StartIcon. It uses the
first one it's given after fvwm starts, and it refuses to change
unless I completely re-start fvwm. I've tried typing all the
combinations I can think of into the console, and nothing works.
Does anyone know a way to accomplish this?
