Re: overriding rubber band selection color

[ahmet öztürk <bilheps gmail com>]

Thanks for the response but css file method is not very suitable for my
purpose. I need a more dynamic solution.

In the meantime, I found out that the situation is not different with
pure Gtk+. So it is not Gtkmm's fault, if at all. I have created a bug
report about the issue:
