[solved] Documentation on GTK+ Themes

Editing the gtkrc file isn't hard by itself, but knowing what each colour settings change on the widgets would be a great help. I did a quick search, but I couldn't find anything like a GTK+ theming reference.

Does anyone know where to find such thing, if there's one?

Thanks

Re: [solved] Documentation on GTK+ Themes

How dumb am I, I went to this site, but I didn't clicked the links on the top, just read the page.

Well, that helps a lot, thank you, but it's not 100% complete.

For example, let's say that I want to change the colours of tabs. I know I have to change the GtkNotebook background colours, but which ones? I know the answers now, but I had to try each one to discover that bg[SELECTED] changes the selected tab colour (ok, makes sense) and bg[ACTIVE] changes the unselected tabs (this one doesn't make a lot of sense).

edit: that site does indicate what each colours changes.

Thank you a lot.
