re: SPAM LOW Re: Top Window Background

Yeah, when I use the  gtk_widget_modify_bg(GTK_WIDGET(window), GTK_STATE_NORMAL, &color), the background 
color does not 
 change, even if I use it with all GTK_STATE_...s.

The right approch is indeed gtk_widget_modify_bg():
GdkColor color;
gdk_color_parse("red", &color);
gtk_widget_modify_bg(GTK_WIDGET(window), GTK_STATE_NORMAL, &color);

Note that the widget must be in the right state.

Cheers,

Andy
