Oh well :)
For anyone else interested:
in the gtkrc file I previously posted:
look in that file for:
style "spin"
{
engine "pixmap"
{
image
{
function = BOX
recolorable = TRUE
state = PRELIGHT
file = "spin2.png"
border = { 4,5,4,5 }
stretch = TRUE
}
<snip>
add to it:
style "spin"
{
xthickness = 20
ythickness = 20
engine "pixmap"
<snip>
It is easy to over do this.
In fact to really do this right it is possible to only change the size of
specific
spinboxes... but it ties you to a theme that was made for it.
