Hmm, maybe I should be more specific:
What I'm trying to do is to change the text color of some items in a
popupmenu which has been created using the Gtk::UIManager together with
a Gtk::ActionGroup. The code snippet you see above is the way I thought
that could be done [ I also tried modify_fg(...) ].

So my questions are:
Is it at least possible to change the colors of menuelemts individually ?
If yes, how can this be done and why is the code above not working ?

Thanks,
Antonio
