Re: [Usability] GnomeIconList selection color

Hi,

BTW you should probably send library patches to gnome-libs-devel and
desktop patches to desktop-devel-list (rather than or in addition to
usability).

When you don't have focus, you just use GTK_STATE_ACTIVE instead of
GTK_STATE_SELECTED. It's sort of a bizarre hack, but that's how it
works.

To see if the icon list is focused, just GTK_WIDGET_HAS_FOCUS (iconlist).
