Hot to theme QuickSwitch border size and colour? #736

Open fladd opened 1 year ago

fladd commented 1 year ago

I cannot seem to find a way to change the border size and colour of the QuickSwitch window. It does not follow the normal window settings.

Does grep -e Color.*Quick -e Quick.*Marg ~/.icewm/preferences help?

fladd commented 1 year ago

Unfortunately not. It gives me this:

Nothing on borders I am afraid.

OK, it's just a generic function with the color derived from the generic switch background:

    g.setColor(switchBg);
    g.drawBorderW(0, 0, width() - 1, height() - 1, true);

Not only this, but it is also always a 3D style, even when Look=flat.

It would be great if this could be fully themed so I could make it look consistent with how my windows and my menu looks.

Maybe other looks need a fix as well. fully themed is undefined and could be a lot of unattractive work with unclear benefits. The QuickSwitch already has 12 themables and 13 preferences. Thanks for this observation.

Well, "fully" might have been not the best choice of word. I meant that it would be great if it were consistent with what can be styled on the other elemens (e.g. windows/menu), such that one can create themes that look coherent.
