[SOLVED] PekWM themes - the root menu

Is it possible to remove/change the 'title bar' of the root menu in pekwm? It is currently the same as all of my windows and I'd like it as something else/removed.

Solution: Menus and Windows have different themes, I had them set to the same in the theme file.

Re: [SOLVED] PekWM themes - the root menu

That should be defined in your theme's theme file. What theme are you using?

What theme are you using?

My own theme, which I used the default one as a template. Here is the file:

$ cat .pekwm/themes/BlueLine-pekwm_0.1.12/theme 
# BlueLine, a PekWM 0.1.12 theme

# Extract this theme directory under ~/.pekwm/themes/ and the
# themes menu will pick it up automatically.

Re: [SOLVED] PekWM themes - the root menu

The default theme is a little bit unclear imo

Decor = "Menu"
  {
    Title
    {
      @BaseDecor
    }
  }

Those lines set the menu theme, and as you see it refers to "BaseDecor" witch is defined in the beginning of the file. In fact you you can remove @BaseDecor and define a completely different theme for your menu by using the same options that is stated in BaseDecor.

Hope that made it a little bit more clear. If you want I can send you another theme as template with more options shown, you'll have to edit a bit more but hopefully it will be more accurate (and maybe easier to understand than my crappy explanation )

edit: realized I forgot the most important; the line you want to change is ' Height = "17" ' which is the height in pixels. Although the top border will still be shown.

Re: [SOLVED] PekWM themes - the root menu

That makes perfect sense, I was using the 'BaseDecor' as the theme for the menu. I've edited it now and it's perfect.

Cheers.
