The cursed slider bars
Posted: Wed Jan 25, 2012 7:27 pmUsing smplayer with a gtk theme is unworkable when its based on black.
Playing with gnome-color-chooser, it seems the color of the slider bars (volume and progress) is just that of the the "Normal background", and so the whole bar turns black, rendering it totally invisible. When playing is fully stopped, it becomes the color of "Normal disabled" (in my case a dark gray) and becomes visible again.
Playing with the Plastique theme, I looked into
/usr/include/Qt/qplastiquestyle.h
/usr/include/QtGui/qplastiquestyle.h
/usr/include/QtGui/QPlastiqueStyle
and I was unable to see where/how these sliders can be tweaked. Playing around in gnome-color-chooser also failed to isolate the sliders.
It;s fine for the sliders to be black, just as long as they have a different colored outline, which I cannot isolate either.
Any help is most welcome.
