[feature request] use Xresources to define GUI colors #553

Open avilleret opened 5 years ago

avilleret commented 5 years ago

as reported here : https://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2019-02/124529.html the font color is hardcoded to black. It would be useful to use some Xressource to define it (foreground color for example ?) so that we can tweak GUI appearance. The same apply to other color that are hardcoded. A preference panel to choose (and import) some color theme would be great too. This might be done with GUI plugin API, isn't it ?

I agree, this was discussed a while ago and a PR has been send in that direction: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/196 (The "pdnext" release of sebshader is quite nice and give some ideas).

What would be even better for UI is to be able to colorize connections, inlets&outlets, by type (msg, signal, pointer).
