Re: Setting background color for a GtkFrame

Thanks . I suspected this and also tried having an eventbox and was able to successfully assign background color. But left that idea since the widgets in the frame was also taking the background color of the eventbox. After I read this post I had a rethink on this and acheived some kind of a window using two eventboxes with two different colors, one for the frame and one for body. :-)

hi,

you need to use an event box, GtkFrame does not have its own X window, so
you must make one yourself using GtkEventBox and then modify it, e.g.,
your background color.

Hi All,

Is it possible to set background color to a GtkFrame? I am using Gtk+
2.12.2 over DirectFB 1.1.1 and there are no window decorations. I am
not able to enable it either. So thought of putting a background color
to a GtkFrame and put the window contents in that.

But I'm not able to set background color. How can I do this?

Regards,
Harinandan S
