Hi German, as for the changes to the menu drawing I would prefer to see the whole drawing here moved over into GSTheme and then it would be very simple to implement everything you want to do by a new specialised theme that just draws the menu differently. There isn't much point in inventing a special mechanism to handle one specific drawing aspect when there already is a perfect concept to deal with the whole thing. Specifically for the menu item colour I am thinking about making the system extension colour list, that is already used in GSToolbarView an official GNUstep mechanism, move the code over to NSColor and to add all the other colour definitions we have scattered in GNUstep gui (I think NSTableView uses some, hints to other places are welcome). That way a theme would just need to override one extra colour list. Is this a feasible approach for you? Or do you see a reason to do things differently? As for GSTaskBar I already replied on the discussion list. What I would like to know about the implementation is what change will be required in NSApplication and NSWindow. We should try to come up with a generic way to handle application icons here, so that we don't need to change our gui code the next time somebody comes up with an idea for a task bar tool.
