Problem with shared background for gadgets

Postby Evak » Fri Apr 13, 2007 17:08

It seems that several gadgets share the same single background image of the imageset.

In my case I am using windowslook, and have a menubar and framewindows but they both use the same background image which is grey. I need my menubar to be white similar to windows but don't know how to change the background image.

I'm an artist with very limited coding/scripting experience and just need a little help with getting this sorted out...

THanks :)

Do you know the Look'n'feel files ? This (I think) is also the job for graphic artists, and helps you define how your widgets are drawn. I learned it easily using these two tutorials:

Thanks, I looked at the first tutorial and my looknfeel, and it looks like it may be easier than I thought :)
