Fluxbox XFCE overlap - adjustments

[Husse]

My experience with fluxbox is close to zilch
shane, the developer of the first beta, is slowly working on an Elyssa fluxbox - unfortunately he does not have much time to spare so progress is slow...

Look for a program to change your default GTK theme. gtk-theme-switch might work.

Hi!

Which version of Fluxbox CE are you using? It's been a while since Daryna Fluxbox CE... i think gtk-theme-switch is what we used... and this defines the the GTK theme in ~/.gtkrc.mine if I remember correctly.

In the current Elyssa Fluxbox CE GTK, themes and also icon themes are handled by xfce-mcs-manager. To configure these, run xfce-setting-show which will bring the XFCE settings manager. From here it should be pretty straight forward.

[EDIT] I just saw that your original post was in august... so the problem you are facing is that the theme settings are being stored in 2 different places for different apps (i think). Check if xfce-mcs-manager is run in the ~/.fluxbox/startup file. This should load the theme settings for XFCE apps. Then xfce-setting-show manager should solve your problem.
