change FLTK scheme for in dillo2
Greetings. Can I change colours of dialogues and scrollbar in dillo2? I would like to gets something less bright. Even something like fluid2's -bg option will be ok.

Not currently. I would not necessarily be opposed to making ui_fg and ui_bg prefs and adding a bunch of [class]::default_style->[whatever]color() to dillo.cc, although I wouldn't be surprised if we ran into our share of places where fltk hardcodes things to, say, GRAY75.

What do people think about reading X resources as in attached patch (mainly copied from commented fltk2 code)? It allows to specify e.g. dillo.background:red dillo.foreground:white in your .Xdefaults Cheers, Johannes

Will be great for me. I'm using .Xdefaults to tweak colour scheme for urxvt and other programs such as xpdf and puredata. -- ?????? ??????????? aka AkhIL ??? ??? 8 09:24:47 KRAST 2009 Fri May 8 01:24:47 UTC 2009 ---------------------------------- Visit my home page http://akhilman.blogspot.com/ jabber: akhil@jabber.ru ---------------------------------- ??? ????????? ????????? ????????? ??, ??? ?? ??????? ?????????, ?????? ?? ???? ????, ??? ?? ???????????? ??? ?????????.

Jorge, what do you think about this. I actually like it more and more after using it for some days. Cheers, Johannes

The ability to set colors as a theme is a good one. Unfortunately I've tried the patch here and saw no difference. Am I doing something wrong? (Just applied the patch and set my ~/.Xdefaults to what you suggested. No difference in "open file", nor "web search" dialogs). On a more long term basis, most probably we'll end using FLTK-1.3.x. It would be good to know what theme API it will use to avoid duplicate work. -- Cheers Jorge.-

Hm, did you restart X or use xrdb -merge to load the new config? You could also set the colors for all clients like this: *foreground: #ffffff *background: #555555 *selectForeground: #000000 *selectBackground: orange *cursorColor: orange and verify that other programs (e.g. xterm) have the color set properly.

At least fltk-1.1 programs automatically set their color according to the X resources. The code is just commented out in fltk2. So if we should switch one day we probabely only need to remove the theme code. Cheers, Johannes

Weird. Can you try "xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults" with the settings above and then start an xterm? Cheers, Johannes

Here, for some reason, xterm didn't react to *foreground nor *background, but honored "*cursorColor". At the same time Xpdf reacted to *background though. Sometimes dillo changed its colors after a "xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults". Others a xserver restart was needed. In a nutshell, here, sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. That, and considering dillo running native in OSX, left me wondering why not just making theme-colors plain dillorc options. AFAIS it would work more reliably and in more platforms. -- Cheers Jorge.-

Are you starting xterm from the cmdline
cmdline.
or from some menu that has -fg and -bg specified in a config file?
Besides ~/.xterm what other config file it has? -- Cheers Jorge.-

Oh well. It didn't work the first time I tried it because terminals are the one thing that I start from an fvwm menu, and my fvwm2rc has the colors specified using flags...

Hm, maybe you have xterm specific resources set somewhere in your system. I guess these would overwrite the wildcard ones. With "appres xterm" you can get all matching resources for "xterm".
Sometimes dillo changed its colors after a "xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults". Others a xserver restart was needed. In a nutshell, here, sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't.
Very strange. The X resources mechanism is quite old and normally works reliably.
That, and considering dillo running native in OSX, left me wondering why not just making theme-colors plain dillorc options. AFAIS it would work more reliably and in more platforms.
I strongly prefer to use the standard mechanism for theming on each platform. On X11 this is X resources. That way you can consistently theme all your applications (at least the well behaved ones) with just a few lines in a central file. Also I think it is a great advantage of X resources that they are stored server side. So even applictions that are running remotely will use the consistent set of colors. Nevertheless I agree that this theme code actually belongs in the fltk library. I can try to send a patch to the fltk list that reenables the currently commented out X resources code. Cheers, Johannes
