Styles (solved)

Post by Vinze »

I have Mint Fluxbox running for a week now and I am enjoing it very much.
I have learnt a lot already.
I just have one problem when I change a style. The default Mint Style does not change completly.

Does anybody know what to do??

Can you elaborate a little more please. Maybe a screenshot will help understand "does not change completely" better... e.g. which parts are not changing. Have you tried restarting Fluxbox, logging out and back in? What are the contents of ~/.fluxbox/overlay ?

Where you see the text "Bestand" (File) there is the colour with every style the Shiki colour (Brown/Black).

Fluxbox is just a window manager... i.e. all it does is manage the window titlebars, buttons and borders. So changing a Fluxbox style will only affect these. Everything inside the window is independent of Fluxbox. To change that you will have to change the GTK theme. Look for the 'Appearance' tool under 'System Tools', or run 'lxappearance' from the terminal
