ahh, I didn't know that I can use it as an Widget, although I declared it as GtkDataboxRuler. Thanks - I've to learn a lot...

Now, it's working. But with this way, just the foreground color could be change. The gtk_widget_modify_bg is not working. Is there any special, like "label" where you just can change the fg color?
