Hi!
I'm trying to change the color of textfield's background in this config:
Code:
# Edit these colors and fonts however you like.
style "default"
{
GtkOptionMenu::indicator_spacing = { 3, 2, 1, 1 }
GtkEntry::progress-border = { 1, 1, 1, 1 }
GtkRange::slider_width = 11
GtkRange::stepper_size = 11
GtkScrollbar::min_slider_length = 14
GtkCheckButton::indicator_size = 10
GtkCheckMenuItem::indicator_size = 10
GtkButton::default_border = { 0, 0, 0, 0 }
fg[NORMAL] = "#000000"
fg[ACTIVE] = "#000000"
