Re: color label in windows ??

AFAIK - you can not change the background color of a label - its one of the gtk's faq - I cant remember the work around - it was probably that you have to add the label to another widget. - if not try #gtk or #gnome - someone might squeek an answer or suggestion - otherwise find another gtk program that does something similar.. and look at the code.. you should be able to changed the foreground (fg) however. regards alan Steph wrote:

Hi... I was wondering if I can set a color in a label in windows... I know it can be done, but i followed an example in the mailing list but it didn´t work for me... Here is my code, it doesnt work and it doesnt print any error message.. the label is still black :( $label_n = &new GtkLabel($label); $estilo_actual = $label_n->get_style(); $estilo_nuevo = $estilo_actual->copy(); $color = &new GdkColor('#FFFFFF'); $estilo_nuevo->base[GTK_STATE_NORMAL]=$color; $label_n->set_style($estilo_nuevo); Thanks for your help.
