hi,

i'm wondering, if theres any possibility to change the color of the label of an gtkcheckbutton??

maybe someone has a clue??

if thats not possible, how about changing the background or font size or something similar??

I'm trying to mark some of my checkboxes so they are appearing different from the others, so the users knows that these are important.

You mean something like this:



The code:

Code:
<?php
$window = new GtkWindow();
$window->set_size_request(400, 240);
$window->connect_simple('destroy', array('Gtk','main_quit'));
$window->add($vbox = new GtkVBox());

require_once "php_tools.php";

// display title
$title = new GtkLabel("Change the font and set the color of checkbox label");
$title->modify_font(new PangoFontDescription("Times New Roman Italic 10"));
$title->modify_fg(Gtk::STATE_NORMAL, GdkColor::parse("#0000ff"));
$title->set_size_request(-1, 40);
$vbox->pack_start($title, 0, 0);

// setup checkboxes
$checkbox1 = setup_checkbox('checkbox 1');
$checkbox2 = setup_checkbox('checkbox 2', "Arial Bold 16");
$checkbox3 = setup_checkbox('checkbox 3', "Times New Roman Italic 20", "#0000ff");

// pack them inside vbox
$vbox->pack_start($checkbox1, 0, 0);
$vbox->pack_start($checkbox2, 0, 0);
$vbox->pack_start($checkbox3, 0, 0);

// add a status area
$vbox->pack_start($status_area = new GtkLabel('Select the checkboxes'));

$window->show_all();
Gtk::main();

// function to simplify the display of grouped radio buttons
function setup_checkbox($label, $fg='', $color='') {
    $checkbox = new GtkCheckButton($label);
    examine($checkbox);
    $checkbox->connect('toggled', "on_toggle");
    $button_label = $checkbox->child; // note 1
    if ($fg!='')
        $button_label->modify_font(new PangoFontDescription($fg)); // note 2
    if ($color!='') {
        $button_label->modify_fg(Gtk::STATE_NORMAL, GdkColor::parse($color)); // note 3
        $button_label->modify_fg(Gtk::STATE_PRELIGHT, GdkColor::parse($color)); //n4 note 3
        $button_label->modify_fg(Gtk::STATE_ACTIVE, GdkColor::parse($color)); //n4 note 3
    }

    return $checkbox;
}

// call-back function when user pressed a radio button
function on_toggle($checkbox) {
    global $status_area;
    $label = $checkbox->child->get_label();

    global $checkbox1, $checkbox2, $checkbox3;
    $status1 = $checkbox1->get_active() ? 'on' : 'off';
    $status2 = $checkbox2->get_active() ? 'on' : 'off';
    $status3 = $checkbox3->get_active() ? 'on' : 'off';
    $status_area->set_text("Status of checkbox1: $status1\n
Status of checkbox2: $status2\n
Status of checkbox3: $status3");

}
?>
