Hi All
This is what I have: FVWM 2.5.12-4 xfree86-common 4.3.0.dfsg.1-8 Debian/unstable (ppc) Kernel 2.4.25-ben1
I'm trying to change the background color of tooltips, balloons as they're called, IINM on FVWM and elsewhere, popping up when I move the mouse over a browser window, the Buttons Bar etc. ... with only very limited success so far:
As far as I know X11 doesn't have any concept of tooltips, so every UI programmer is obliged to roll his/her own. Therefore there's no standard for what they're called, or whether they have a separate background resource at all. Applications written with a particular toolkit sush as Gtk may be different - I don't know.
If you're desperate to find the resources for a given app, you can run "strings" on the executable and try to guess what's what. I've had occasional, limited success with that strategy.
