Hey guys,

I am trying to set up the right colorsets. Here is my current config and it’s screenshot:


ColorSet 0	fg #000000 bg #294fde
ColorSet 1	fg black bg lightyellow

#	Window Decor and Style
		
DestroyDecor	DefaultDecor
AddToDecor		DefaultDecor
	+ TitleStyle Height 17
	+ TitleStyle ColorSet 0
	+ ButtonStyle 1 Vector 4 49x49@3 49x51@3 51x51@3 51x49@3				-- Flat
	+ ButtonStyle 2 Vector 4 40x40@3 60x60@3 60x40@4 40x60@3				-- Flat
	+ ButtonStyle 4 Vector 5 40x40@3 60x40@3 60x60@3 40x60@3 40x40@3		-- Flat
	+ ButtonStyle 6 Vector 5 40x60@3 60x60@3 60x55@3 40x55@3 40x60@3		-- Flat
	+ ButtonStyle All -- UseTitleStyle
	+ BorderStyle Active Solid black
	+ BorderStyle Inactive Solid black

Style * Colorset 0, UseDecor DefaultDecor,

Style *		NoButton 8, NoButton 9, NoButton 0

I guess what I’m looking for is some direction towards getting my style like this:

The config to get that looks like this:


SetEnv COLOR   LightBlue
SetEnv HICOLOR DodgerBlue
SetEnv FG_COLOR   Black
SetEnv FG_HICOLOR White

	+ ButtonStyle All -- UseTitleStyle
	+ BorderStyle Active Solid black
	+ BorderStyle Inactive Solid black

I would like to use VGradient with the light blue…not sure what the proper setup for the colorset is, or how to use it.

thanks~

forgetting about the gradient for a minute…I can’t get fv to use that colorset. So at this point I’m just trying to get that working.

See anything wrong with how I’m going about this?

You need a comma in there like in:

Colorset 1 bg black, fg white

:O)

that’s the sign when one has been coding for too long a stretch.
