Gnome Panel Text Colors - Easy Way
March 29th, 2008
A couple of days ago I wrote about How to change the text color on your Gnome Panel. If you happened to read that tutorial then you may have noticed that getting the colors changed was a little more involved than it seemed like it should be. Because of this, I decided to try and make things a little more user friendly, so I created a program that does all the hard work for you. Introducing my newly created program The Gnome Panel Text Color Changer! No need to compliment me on the creative name I gave it.
Its quite easy to use. Simply use the three sliders to adjust the colors until you get it how you want. When you are done all you have to do is click the set button at the bottom. As you move the sliders around, the color will be represented in hexadecimal form at the bottom. If you know what this number means then you can edit it yourself and then hit set.
Ok now for some warnings. This is one of my first attempts at making a program with a graphical user interface in the programming language C++. As far as I know there might be other programs out there that accomplish the same thing, but oh well because I pretty much just made this to practice some programming. I've only taken basic programming classes before, so by no means do I fully understand what I'm doing. Haha if it makes you feel any better the program works like a charm for me, but, of course, I can't guarantee its going to work flawlessly for everyone else. The download is simply an executable in a zip file, so once you get it extracted it should run if you just double click it. If you have any problems just leave me a comment and I'll see what I can do about fixing it. If you can't get the program to work you can always go back to the hard way of changing the colors.
