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.
