Re: coloring vbox/scrolled window

[riboaz xs4all nl]

hi,

you need to use an event_box() to cover the region you want to colour,
then  set the background of the event box to the colour you want.

your hierarchy could be one of several options, one being:

event box > vbox1 > scl > vbox2 > button

cheers,

richard
