[Glade-users] setting resources

[Lourdes Maldonado]

Using the 'base' color solved my problem (Thanks).  But, Where could I
have found that out (documentation)?  I had been struggling with this
for some days now, but I didn't see any examples (or mention) of a
'base' color.  What would you recommend as the best source for resource
file documentation (or examples)?

Thanks for any help.

I think you may have to use the 'base' color for the background
for widgets like GtkEntry/GtkText, e.g.

style "entry"
{
   fg[NORMAL] = {1.0, 1.0, 0}
   base[NORMAL] = {0, 0, 0}
}
