But nothing happens when I press the windows that are in the taskbar. I would like to give them a special color when you select them, but its not possible. Any hints?

You would need to use ‘‘WindowStyle colorset foo’’ – where ‘foo’ is some number with the already defined colorset.

It still does not work. I think I has something to do with:

*FvwmIcon: Colorset 60

If I out comment this it works again but I would like to use this colorset. Any way around this?

Clarify your ambiguity for me. I read your initial question as wanting to give the selected window a different colour. If you mean instead you wanted to give the button in the FvwmIconMan a different color then see the man page for FvwmIconMan – it’s possible, as is the example contained within it.
