As you can see in the gdk documentation[1]: �The GdkGCValues structure holds a set of values used to create or modify a graphics context.
GdkColor foreground; the foreground color. Note that gdk_gc_get_values() only sets the pixel value. GdkColor background; the background color. Note that gdk_gc_get_values() only sets the pixel value.� The note "Note that gdk_gc_get_values() only sets the pixel value." appears to be missing from the PyGTK documentation. Feel free about filing a bug report regarding documentation. You can use gtk.gdk.Colormap.query_color to get the RGB values from the pixel value. Regards.
