Thanks for continuing the input on this thread, Ron.  However, in a
reply I sent yesterday I stated that those sorts of settings are not of
use because I don't choose to use the gnome WM, I use Xfce.  

So, for me the only way to set things is in gconf - but I pointed out
yesterday that has no effect on my user's toolbar icons in evo.  By
comparison with another gnome app, I can change the toolbar in galeon in
gconf (found under
"/apps/galeon/Toolbar/toolbar_override_stye/text_below"), but
reiterating that when I do the same system-wide settings under
"/desktop/interface/toolbar_style/both" it has no effect on evo's
buttons on the toolbar.  So there I think is the problem: evo has given
away its capacity to set the toolbar unless using gnomw WM.  There
certainly appears to be no app-specific setting for it that I've found
or been shown.  Please prove me wrong :-/

Gavin.
