File selection tabs & font colour...
« on: September 24, 2010, 05:51:16 am »
First of all, apologies if this belongs on another forum or if it has been answered before - I've done some searching but can't seem to find anything relevant though I am pretty useless so it could be just me.

Been using Code::Blocks for a couple of years now, but recently opted for a fresh install of Arch Linux and for the first time went for a dark GTK theme.

Problem I'm having is that the text colour on the file tabs (and all the others) remains black which makes it hard to read. Setting the tab style to Visual Studio has helped but it's still not perfect and as petty as it is it's still annoying.

I guess there's a way to change it, I've looked through the settings dialogues and have glanced over default.conf to no avail.

Actual question is does anyone know how to change the text colour on the tabs inside Code::Blocks? I don't want to change my theme but even if there was a way to use a different theme with Code::Blocks I could live with it I guess.

Thanks,

It is hardcoded and can't be changed.
But you could try this patch: http://smrt.is-a-geek.org/codeblocks/patches/gtk_notebook3.patch
It is described in this thread: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,12392.0.html
