Hi Michael, Thanks for the quick response. This works perfectly when setting the bg color of the window, however if you attempt to do a myTable.modifyBg() it fails. Or a box container of any sort. Any ideas what items I can apply styles to?

It can sometimes be tricky to determine where a widget is getting its colour choice from, whether it's using Fg, Base, or Bg, and which state it's using. It's made harder when some widgets simply defer to the background of the widgets behind them. Tthis is the case with containers' borders. Try the following code: using System; using Gtk; class WindowTester { static void Main () { Application.Init (); Window window = new Window ("This is a window"); window.DeleteEvent += delegate {Application.Quit ();}; window.SetDefaultSize (200, 200); Table tab = new Table (2, 2, true); window.Add (tab); tab.BorderWidth = 10; tab.Attach (new Button ("One"), 0, 1, 0, 1); tab.Attach (new Button ("Two"), 0, 1, 1, 2); tab.Attach (new Button ("Three"), 1, 2, 0, 2); window.ModifyBg (StateType.Normal, new Gdk.Color(255, 0, 0)); window.ShowAll (); Application.Run (); } } Hope this helps, Michael Hutchinson _______________________________________________ Gtk-sharp-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/gtk-sharp-list
