Shame, as you're then not learning anything. Here's your answer: Colorset 7 VGradient 70 2 white 50 grey 50 black DestroyModuleConfig FvwmBacker:* *FvwmBacker: Command (Desk 0, Page * *) Colorset 7 AddToFunc StartFunction I Module FvwmBacker (Note that all I did from my previous reply was change the colours and up the gradient fill -- YMMV. Change as needed. Read the manpage, experiment, do some learning, whatever it takes.) -- Thomas Adam
