Netload plugin doesnt pickup color from the gtk theme, as other *load, battery and mixer plugin do. You can chose the color but don't have the choice to pickup the gtk theme specified color. It would be nice to have gtk color support in this plugin. Regards, Yves-Alexis Perez
Systemload plugin has the same problem. AFAIK it depends on the Gtk theme whether it works. Don't know how to fix this. Can you help?
Is this supported in the current version?
Created attachment 1384 netload-fix-bar-colors.diff Patch to fix bar colors. It looks like some themes use different colors and states to paint the progress bar. This patch makes it set all three of the ones I'm aware of - bg[PRELIGHT], bg[SELECTED], and base[SELECTED]. The patch also removes the GtkRcStyle code used to set the colors in favor of the simpler gtk_widget_modify_bg() and gtk_widget_modify_base() convenience functions. Works for me here on ClearLooks, which just shows the default blue theme color without this patch. (I've attached a similar patch to a bug for systemload as well.)
This bug seems to be solved, at least in 0.4
No, it's not.
Hmmh, here netload plugin correctly picks gtk theme color (using murrine engine).
Clearlooks doesn't work, netload svn trunk from 10 hours ago or so.
Using clearlooks 2.12.2 it works here. How strange.
2.12.2 here as well. Very strange.
xfce4-netload-plugin-0.4.0 picks up the theme colors here with gtk2 2.14.7, but this brakes the custom colors set in the plugin preferences. Clearlooks: fail Crux: ok Glider: fail Glossy: fail High Contrast: ok Industrial: ok Inverted: ok Large Print: ok Low Contrast: ok Mist: ok Nimbus: fail Nodoka: fail Raleigh: ok Simple: ok Sugar: fail (somehow intented) Thin Ice: ok Xfce: ok Reported as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=505214
Unfortunately, netload-plugin background color is not related to panel background color. systemload-plugin has the same problem too. It's not differ witch color i used for my panel background color. Therefore it's not possible to use some of the great themes.
Patch applied. It should work fine now.
