Hi thardy01,
Have you read the jwm's manual regarded to Tray style colors? Colors are described as the hex triplets in RGB format (#xxxxx).
If there is anything in your config file regarding colors you should create that section.
Example:
| Code: | <?xml version="1.0"?>
<JWM>
<!-- JWM theme loosely based on the "Fizzure2" Fluxbox style -->
<StartupCommand>xsri --scale-width=100 --scale-height=100 /usr/share/fluxbox/backgrounds/fractalMovementscape.jpg</StartupCommand>
<Border>
<Font antialias="false">-*-helvetica-*-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*</Font>
<Foreground>black</Foreground>
<Background>#a6a6a6</Background>
<ActiveForeground>#fefefe</ActiveForeground>
<ActiveBackground>#2152c5</ActiveBackground>
</Border>
<Tray>
<Font antialias="false">-*-helvetica-*-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*</Font>
<Foreground>black</Foreground>
<Background>#a6a6a6</Background>
<ActiveForeground>#fefefe</ActiveForeground>
<ActiveBackground>#2152c5</ActiveBackground>
</Tray>
<Pager>
<Outline>#888888</Outline>
<Foreground>black</Foreground>
<Background>#2152c5</Background>
<ActiveForeground>#fefefe</ActiveForeground>
<ActiveBackground>#4184de</ActiveBackground>
</Pager>
<Load>
<Outline>white</Outline>
<Foreground>DarkOrange2</Foreground>
<Background>#2152c5</Background>
</Load>
<Popup>
<Font antialias="false">-*-helvetica-*-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*</Font>
<Outline>#a6a6a6</Outline>
<Foreground>#fefefe</Foreground>
<Background>#2152c5</Background>
</Popup>
<Menu>
<Font antialias="false">-*-helvetica-*-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*</Font>
<Foreground>black</Foreground>
<Background>#a6a6a6</Background>
<ActiveForeground>#fefefe</ActiveForeground>
<ActiveBackground>#2152c5</ActiveBackground>
</Menu>
</JWM> |
You should restart jwm every time for changes in .jwmrc to take effect.
I know that this is the gentoo forum and I shouldn't do that but if you are using jwm as a main window manager i could recommend you a Puppy Linux forum as a vault of information on that topic since it is theirs main WM for a long time. |
