I have just started using
fvwm
window manager, and I am using xombrero
browser on OpenBSD.
(**update** this is gtk
issue not window manager)
However, the color of the address bar, search box, and command box are all white (or off-white) text and white (or off-white) background. Highlighting the text also is white. So it's impossible to read the input text.
Input forms within the page are colored fine, although highlighting causes white on white.
I looked through the xombrero man pages but found no reference to any way of changing the color of any of those items. Therefore I thought this is maybe controlled by fvwm
through some FvwmForm
parameter.
I tried adding *FvwmFormBack Black
to my .fvwmrc
file and reloading fvwm
, but it didn't seem to fix anything.
Anybody know what and where is the control parameter for the (a) background and text color of (web browser) input fields, and (b) the highlighting color for fvwm
?
(Or if this is absolutely not a fvwm
issue, please let me know, but I would pretty surprised if the creators of xombrero
would make white on white text be default and not configurable).
This is a gtk3 issue I didn't have a gtk3 theme installed. Gtk3 is used to control the relevant input fields. To fix it, I installed a theme into ~/.themes/THEME_NAME
folder, and added the following to /etc/gtk-3.0/settings.ini:
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name = THEME_NAME
But that is only for one user. How can I install the system default gtk3 theme?
I searched for relevant man
pages but came up dry for good gtk3 reference.
